Boring

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Vibrant, energetic and exciting! This visually stunning film was an absolute delight. I admit, the action sequences are purely for effect and in many instances humorous effect, as it simply can't happen the way it does. But it is thoroughly entertaining and the action sequences accompanied by thumping music is thrilling, to say the least! On an entertainment level, it scores ten out of ten! Hrithik Roshan is in top form and makes a credible action hero. There is an interesting twist and a fantastic climax action scene. I loved every minute of this two and a half hour movie! Wonderful, moving ending, as well.

Superstar Hrithik Roshan made his fantastic debut in his father's directorial venture "Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai (2000)" which was a blockbuster at the box office. It was a big movie for Hrithik Roshan and Rakesh Roshan's career. After that, Hrithik giving a lot of flops and average films in his career. Hrithik's movies were flopped at the box office except one average film like Fiza (2000) includes Yaadein (2001), Aap Mujhe Acche Lagne Lage (2002), Na Tum Jaano Na Hum (2002), Mujhse Dosti Karoge (2002), Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon (2003), Lakshya (2004), Kites (2010), Guzaarish (2010) which was a critically acclaimed film but sadly it was a box office bomb except the hit like Mission Kashmir (2000), the blockbuster Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001) Koi Mil Gaya (2003), Krrish (2006), Dhoom 2 (2006), Jodhaa Akbar (2006), Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011), Agneepath (2012) and Krrish 3 (2013), they all are a critical and commercial success in Hrithik's career. Now Hrithik is back with a bang in a action comedy thriller film Bang Bang! (2014) which also stars her ZNMD co-star Katrina Kaif in the lead roles. It is a remake of 2010 Hollywood movie Knight and Day starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz. The film was a commercial success and was a hit at the box office. Bang Bang! is a stylish action movie with a lot of commercial elements with a dose of comedy, thriller, romance, adventure and drama. The story revolves around the colonel Viren Nanda goes to meet a wanted terrorist Omar Zafar in his holding cell. As Viren informs Zafar that he will be extradited back to India for his crimes, Zafar's men enter his holding cell, led by Hamid Gul killing all guards around them, with Zaffar then killing Viren by shooting him and then burning him. As Zaffar escapes in a helicopter waiting on the roof, he puts a $5 million reward for someone to steal the Koh-i-Noor diamond from the Tower of London, but with one condition – the thief must be Indian, to hold up a new extradition treaty between India and UK. Soon after, a international criminal named Rajveer Nanda steal it, and when Zaffar's men are informed of the theft, they travel to Rajveer for the deal. Although they initially travel with the $5 million reward, Rajveer informs them that he now wants $20 million for the deal. Following the disdain of the comment made by Rajveer, a fight breaks out between Rajveer and Zaffar's men after which Rajveer flies away. After Rajveer escapes, a CCTV footage of him is captured, showing that he is in Shimla. Following Rajveer's escape, he sees Harleen sitting in a restaurant, who is there waiting for her internet date, "Vickie", to show up. Will Rajveer be able to kill Hamid Gul or Omar Zafar? Is Rajveer taking revenge because of his brother gets killed? Is what follows the rest of the story, watch the movie to find out. The flaws of the movie I would say, the romance was little bit forced in my opinion. The love story was almost unnecessary, it should have been avoided that. The story could have been a bit better because it was bit draggy, it lacks the script and the connection of the audiences like the single screens and the multiplexes. The story should have been made a bit better. Hrithik Roshan is back in his action avatar which reminds you of Aryan in Dhoom 2. Hrithik excels with his character portrayal. As Rajveer who is ruthless, smart, intelligent, stylish and bad-ass criminal, he did a great job, he did justice to his role. Katrina Kaif as Harleen delivers her comic timing, her dialogues, her smile, her innocence, she is very good in her role. Danny Denzongpa and Jaffred Jaffrey repeats their villain act, they are wasted in the film. They are playing villainous characters before, but here, they are wasted, I mean, they wasn't so much powerful enough I would stay. There are 2-3 villains who chase Hrithik and Katrina in the film, and that's all, there is nothing else. They are wasted. Pawan Malhotra as a cop Zorawar performed very well. Hrithik and Katrina's chemistry looks lovely, convincing and believable. They looks sizzling and hot together. The romance was probably one of the best combination and chemistry I have seen so far. The rest of the actors provides decent support. The action sequences looks realistic which a bit similar to Hollywood movies nowadays. Even through its a remake of Knight and Day. The action was fantastic and it looks realistic. Thank God, there are not a cheesy stunts like crap action movies in the 80's and the 90's. And also there is not an one single over the top action where the actor got a punch and hits them and then people was flying anywhere. All the action stunts are fantastic. The direction by Siddharth Anand was fascinating, the cinematography by Sunil Patel are mind blowing and very well shot in the beautiful locations like Shimla, Abu Dhabi, Manali and Prague. The visuals looks fantastic and very well executed. The dialogues are good.The music by Vishal-Shekhar was great. Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif's dance performance is a delight and visual treat to watch on the big screen. The songs Tu Meri, Bang Bang title track are catchy and party number which makes you dance on the floor. Meherbaan was a romantic song and it was very well shot in the city of Santorini in Greece. The background music by Salim-Sulaiman are sad but it was good. Overall, Bang Bang is decent movie strictly to watch only for Hrithik Roshan fans. I'm also a big fan of Hrithik but the movie was decent, it could have been better only for the story and editing. But the visuals of the film and Hrithik-Katrina's chemistry is a must watch and worth watching.

Seriously. Why would anyone make such a movie!? I think Director is the one to be blamed. You keep name of your house 'Ghar'. I must be crazy that I finished it some how. Bang bang me.Almost complete story line looked fake. From the first scene when Jimmy dies, whole plot was predictable. It was only the Hero himself who didn't know until end that he was Jimmy's brother.Not worth a dime. Certainly a complete waste of time. How come every where there is a CCTV camera? Whatever anyone does and if it needs to be found, OMG it was already recorded on a camera.Have you seen Tridev or movies like it? One was always surprised that why would a bullet not hit the protagonist. Do you really believe they make such movies in 201x! And here it is. I can keep writing on and on. There is no logic in anything. Even Salman does similar stuff but he manages to pull off. This one simply does not take off.

Read the other reviews. What's wrong with a gorgeous man & gorgeous woman showing off their incredible looks? All actors looks great. The movie flows well and is easy to watch. Some movies are not meant for over-analyzing & expecting they will give you the meaning of life answer. You just go for a ride. The music is fantastic. My daughter still sings Tu Meri every day. The other songs are great too. There is action. There is romance. Yes, it's cheesy & comical but it's FUN. Love cinematography. Would see it. again 5 times.
