I loved this movie!!
The part set in NY constitutes a well done thriller, with a very original first half-hour and lots of details that make the difference. The part set in Afghanistan is simply excellent. Moving, engrossing, realistic. The dialogues are very good, they come across as natural but are never bland. The performances are good, especially Kamal Haasan. The screenplay is tight and the ending quite clever. A great watch.
9/10
