I love this movie so much
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Wonderful acting of everyone, the gripping screenplay & direction, Sachin-Jigar's background music, intense thriller with a nail-biting finish & no exaggeration or over-the-top sequences will definitely bring you to the theater. The first half will end & the second half will exactly start from that point. It never slows down. Overall if you like intense thriller & a very little bit of action wrapped in patriotism; this movie is certainly for you... It is a real full-marks-to the point-movie.
Too impressed to see an Indian movie with the application of logic at every point and nowhere the movie seems to lag behind either in its plot or it's acting,thus,a must watch film. It is the best thriller Indian movie(exception Baby)
Complete snooze fest despite being based on an exciting epochal time in India's geopolitical history. Zero edge of seat excitement, bad acting and ridiculous dialogues. The only saving grace - Boman Irani in the few scenes he's granted. To anyone who's watched Raazi and The Ghazi Attack, this movie is an epic fail. It's informative for sure, but totally un-entertaining, simply because the makers decided to use the same old Bollywood formulas to add the 'entertainment' factor. This movie could've easily been an Indian 'Argo' but it isn't even at the level of a decent documentary.
Decent effort from John and the director Abhishek Sharma, but the movie falls apart so many times. The grip which is required in such movies is missing. Although kudos to John for showing the courage to make a movie on this subject.
