Torbaaz (2020) User Reviews

Not Recommended 👎🏻 by Hit Ya Flop - Movie World

[nitsvirusboyz · 4/10 · 11 December 2020]

The makers have missed an opportunity to deliver an impactful film. It has a body, but no soul. The film lacks effective dialogues and tight editing. Also, the dragged screenplay makes it an unimpressive watch.

Sanjay Dutt delivers average performance. Nargis Fakhri has no significant role in the film and she hardly leaves an impact in her short role. Rahul Dev effortlessly played the antagonist Qazar.

Child actors Aishan Jawaid Malik, Hamid Shafi, Mohammed Khairkhah, Rudra Soni are good in their parts and gave watchable performances.

Direction 2/5 Acting 2.5/5 Editing 1.5/5 Story 2.5/5 Screenplay 1.5/5

Except for Sanjay Dutt, movie has nothing special to offer

[cseabhi · 5/10 · 16 January 2021]

Torbaaz is a movie about an ex army doctor Nasser Khan (Sanjay Dutt) who aims to change future of afghani refugee children through cricket and bring some joy to their life. Well this is not an easy role to portray but Sanjay Dutt just fitted into it.

Torbaaz is certainly best than the movies releasing now a days as it provides you atleast an original story and good performances. The story here is certainly a good one which needs to be told especially in the times like this. But unfortunately Torbaaz fails in the screenplay and direction.

Girish Malik just could not hold the movie together. He had all the elements to make this movie a good one but unfortunately he failed.

Acting wise, Sanjay Dutt is on the top of his game in this one and Rahul Dev is brilliant. Nargis Fakhri is wasted in this one.

Overall, if you are a Sanjay Dutt fan you can watch it atleast once.

Fact behind

[bejoythundil · 6/10 · 12 December 2020]

Movie tell u about the fact,overall it's ok type not much interesting.

Be careful, ALL positive reviews are fake!!!

[WatchAndSmile · 2/10 · 15 December 2020]

Well, you can try reading those review, they ALL look the same 1-2 lines of the same text. And look at their names too, they all have a number - these are bots and IMDB should look into them. No previous ratings as well. This is a massive scam by the producers of this garbage. Some are only reviewing the trailer and never seen it( comments are bots so they are just generic) I can't believe Netflix got involved in this garbage. Horrible acting, amateurish directing and bad script. Maybe standards in India are very low, but this would be a B- movie in North America, with 2/10 average review rating!

Script: 2/10 Acting: 2.3/10 Directing 2/10 Camera: 2.3/10

2/10

Pointless grandstanding that we are used to and bored of.

[sonitabh-yadav · 2/10 · 12 December 2020]

Only based on emotional instigation without really addressing anything

A heart touching story with a very strong message

[poolari-38009 · 7/10 · 12 December 2020]

A must watch movie with a strong message. It is wonderful to see the difference a game can make to hundreds of innocent lives in a nation. Hopefully a lot of children in similar situations will actually choose a bat over a gun. Hats off to the entire crew.

Unrealistic portrayal of reality and awful acting.

[ahmadreshada · 1/10 · 12 December 2020]

As an Afghan, I can say that every single detail about Afghanistan in this movie is incorrect. They should have checked their facts. At one point it says Tora Bora is close to Kabul, in reality it's very far from Kabul located in border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Also, how it has portrayed Afghan people and their culture is absolutely unrealistic. And what was the random explosion and foreign soldiers running around doesn't make sense.

Poor Acting

[doctorpratik · 1/10 · 27 December 2020]

Could not watch further after 30 minutes. Poor acting.

A very clean and well made movie

[faisalfaves · 9/10 · 11 December 2020]

Sanjay Dutt and team contributed to the Afghan Peace and prosperity, Thanks to them. A very clean and nice story, specially for the people of Afghanistan. And Thanks to the Netflix for showing this movie to the whole world without any border restrictions. A must watch, for a light fun and knowledge.

Great message with cricket used as a tool to provide entertainment

[aqdas2008 · 7/10 · 11 December 2020]

The movie provides a great message with amazing performances by the child cast. Cricket scenes help keep the balance with an intense background of terrorism on the side

The most fake reviews ever pushing this movie - the downfall of IMDB

[Xavier_Stone · 1/10 · 23 December 2020]

I was able to make it through the first 24 minutes before bailing out, this is just an incredibly bad bollywood movie. I had to return here and check out the reviews. All of the first 100 or so reviews give this film 8,9 or 10 stars, from one review accounts. I have never seen such a heavily upvoted movie in my life.

I think IMDB is going to suffer from this, as obviously they aren't doing anything about it.

Amazon ignored their fake reviews for years until their customers finally got fed up and it became a well known joke. The same is happening here. I'm thinking IMDB is getting paid as some of these accounts are obviously created with help. 1 review in the last week with an account of 8 years? Whatever.

With all the ads, and trailers you'd think that this website would at least try to keep it honest.

I'm slowly moving to other sites as this is just getting out of hand. Even Reddit has threads about IMDB fake reviews, so bad it's a common autofill search extension now.

Slow and unpromising

[sameerlodaya · 2/10 · 11 December 2020]

The plot was good but it did not convey the emotions ,the meaning ,the reality ,the pain of Afghanistan

It was extremely slow and needed a good edit as some scenes were dragged thus making the movie long in duration... the direction was also very poor

The casting was very ordinary and did not gave what was needed on the screen

Sanjay has lost his charm and was pathetic nargis had few words to utter

Only good thing they have showed is beautiful Kazakhstan

History

[khilat-83811 · 1/10 · 11 December 2020]

Afghan national cricket team came out of Peshawar Pakistan. Just saying.

Nihayti Vaheeyat- Totally Useless piece of Faeces

[nehasmriti-45718 · 1/10 · 14 December 2020]

The director has done hell lot of nonsense in this movie. I mean none of the actor acts. No one knows when the flashback starts or why Sanju baba tears the boarding pass in the initial scene or why he came back to Kabul and throws away children's ball in water. I mean poor and boring direction with no coherence in the scenes.

Original story

[pala-63719 · 8/10 · 14 December 2020]

This is a fantastic Film. So original and brilliant, stellar performances all around. I really appreciate the hard work put into this.

Nice vfx

[jhaatharv · 7/10 · 14 December 2020]

The film has a lot of newness interns of the storyline and content as well as the drama. Well presented movie.

Attempt to bump up ratings?

[shruvinshah · 1/10 · 17 December 2020]

Couldn't help but notice that first 50 comments all gave good rating and surprisingly 12 out of 12 people found it helpful! All first top 50 comments Something fishy going on here

Garbage movie

[ninanjoji · 1/10 · 12 December 2020]

Another garbage movie from Bollywood. No brain used to developed movie. All Bollywood is needs quick money. Please don't waste your 3 hours.

Boring movie

[akashmahajan-50803 · 1/10 · 12 December 2020]

Nothing special in this movie. I think you won't be able to even complete watching this movie. You ignore this movie and save your time. Acting of the actors is not very great too. Bakwas movie.

Slow movie, match copied from Lagaan

[DesiReviews · 2/10 · 12 December 2020]

After the first 10 mins, I guestimated that this movie can't be bigger than 2 hours. Paused to check the length, and there it was it - 1 hour and 42 mins. Clearly stretched scenes to pad movie time make it painful to watch. Half of Sanjay Datt's dialogs are inaudible and we feel like waiting for the next day so that he is out of his hangover. Cliché situations copied from Lagaan - a. Repeated twice in the movie - the coach brings a new player, rest of the team resist, but agree in the end. b. Coach challenges a better team for a match, team practices, and ends up winning. c. Opposition team starts well in the start. d. Hat trick e. The team thinks they lost. f. Last ball win.

Plus - scenic views. Afganistan landscape itself serves this purpose.

Netflix listen up don't help Bollywood

[drnitishsharma · 1/10 · 12 December 2020]

Aaah total crap why they don't watch their movies before releasing and why Netflix isn't reviewing its content

Brilliant performance

[kirandahal-85177 · 8/10 · 14 December 2020]

This movie gives absolute peace to my heart watching these guys giving brilliant and stellar performances.

Important message

[amritaasingh · 7/10 · 13 December 2020]

I feel like is was a good movie with a very important message for us. Heartbreaking to see what some children go thorugh. Hopefully this movie will change somebody's mind to the better.

Nothing new

[ajit110920 · 1/10 · 11 December 2020]

Netflix India is not tag to worth looking up. Move on, come with sth new.

Very nice movie

[dipshamajhi · 10/10 · 12 December 2020]

This movie has really set some high bars in the Indian cinema. The entire cast and crew did a great job.
