7/10
good movie
31 August 2007
ill give it an 8 out of 7 because of guts...RGV has the guts to make a remake of a 1975 classic bollywood film...Whatever you do, do NOT compare this film with the original..While the story is the same, the setting and everything is completely different.Either way RGV knows what he is doing...The first part of the film was great, but the second part could have used some improvement in the when it comes to execution...I have always said that RGV is one of the best film makers in India alongside Mahesh Bhatt, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and Vishal Bharadwaj....From Shiva(1989), satya and company, to kaun, bhoot and sarker, RGV definitely knows what he is doing...There are many scenes in this film that stand out...Amitabhs intro (Babbans) was brilliantly executed...The acting could have also used some improvement...Amitabh and mohanlal were amazing but the rest of the cast was just OK...Ajay devgan was a miscast in my opinion..Instead Aamir Khan or even bobby deol would have been better. So basically, a decent flick (violent though), but it gets a 7 because of RGV's habit of taking a risk
