A movie for Television and DVD
13 June 2008
This movie if released in theaters would surely flop because this movie has nothing that would drag you to the theaters except the lead actors Dino Morea and Milind Soman. This movie is for DVD and television.

The script is bad. But the director Pavan Kaul has made a bad script look like a good one. He has executed the scenes well with the help of good good performances and good cinematography. Some unwanted scenes and dialogs have made it look like an adult movie and it was promoted like that too. Maybe the producers wanted to pull audience who want sex. But the movie is for the family audience as it is about relationships. The emotions touch you too especially in the ending.

Dino has acted well. Read the reviews of most of his movies and you will see that he has been praised. But still he is underrated. Milind is a great actor and he too is underrated. Sheetal Menon is good. But needs more films as this movie might not help her. Simone Singh looks cute and has acted well. Chetan Hansraj has also done his part well. But other actors have no scope and have no importance even if they are famous television artists(Roshni Chopra, Karan, etc).

Conclusion: Bad script, good performances, some shocking dialogs and not a bad movie. Won't regret buying the DVD.

And my favorite dialog in this movie is "How do yo like your eggs ? Fried or... fertilized ?"

Hukumat (1987)
7/10
Highest grosser of 1987
6 May 2007
Warning: Spoilers
This movie was a huge hit. It is not a great movie. But it is entertaining. The film has been forgotten by many. The director and actor team IE: Anil Sharma - Dharmendra team has been very successful with two super hits Hukumat, Elaan-E-Jung and 1 hit Tehalka. They gave 1 hit film Farishtay. With Dharmendra's son Sunny Deol, Anil Sharma had given the all time Blockbuster, Gadar-Ek Prem Katha. Those who love the mas-ala movies of the 80's and love Dharmendra must watch "Hukumat".

This film like Anil Sharma's film is about a dangerous villain, near the border of the country who is trying to destroy India. The hero takes the challenge of destroying the enemy and in the end of the movie, he is successful. But the hero loses a lot. In Hukumat the hero's son gets killed. In Elaan-E-Jung, his mother's hands get cut.
