Baaghi - Der Rebell

The story line is typical. There is nothing new in this story. The same build up of love relation, the logic of next move of the hero, something revenge and there is a villain who involves in the love interest of the heroine. Nothing new. The producer and the director choose a very masala type, mass entertainer, and a lot of action packed story. This strategy was proved good by the box office success. But after all, I want to thank the hero, Tiger Shroff because of his extraordinary stunt skills and good dancing ability. These two abilities saved the film and the director took the full advantage from these. The direction was OK, acting was above average (lead pair, the main antagonist, rest of the cast), Song was not so good (this is only my opinion, I haven't seen the top chart), Action was superb. After a long time, we saw a good action packed movie. I saw Rocky Handsome but this action was better. Tiger Shroff is a complete package of dancing, action stunts, and six pack abs figure. I like is action stunts most then dancing but his acting, dialogue delivery, face expression need more development. But after all, he is a good hero because he is very relevant of today's Bollywood action cinema. People like him as a complete package. The director tried to deliver us same old wine with a new bottle but I have to say, this Bottle is very new and looked good.

The posters and trailer of 'Baaghi' gave a firm idea of what to expect from the movie - limitless action and some breath-taking visuals in the backdrop of a stereotypical bollywood romance.Indeed,it is.

A mock-tail blended with 2004 Tollywood release,the Prabhas starrer 'Varsham' (Earlier remade in Tamil as Mazhai starring Jayam Ravi in the lead) and reknowed Indonesian martial arts flick The Raid::Redemption(2004),garnished with pinches of Tezaab(1988),36th Chamber Of Shaolin (1978) and The Karate Kid (2010) this Sabbir Khan movie is a mixed bag of excitement and dread as it suffers hardly due to its clichéd storyline that's based on the age old template of virtuous hero up against the evil villain.

The reason for a so-so experience is evident - lazy handling of the screenplay and relying entirely upon Tiger Shroff and his ability to pull off action sequences with ease and perfection.The screenplay by Sanjeev Dutta turns a roadblock in a smooth cinematic experience and had some more care been taken in handling the screenplay better by compromising unwanted comedy tracks and vomiting hackneyed romantic sequences,the movie could have been an instant cult action classic from bollywood,given the perfection in handling never-before seen breath-taking action sequences.

The action choreography is top-notch and undoubtedly the best from Indian cinema in quiet a long time and even compatible with films from the west.The park-our sequence,the climax fight etc were particularly brilliant and deserves special mention.

Tiger Shroff is a revelation as far as bollywood action films are concerned and it must be admitted that he along with likes of Vidyut Jamwal has raised the standards of action flicks from India that was struggling hard to find a bankable action star after Akshay Kumar who did some impressive works in his initial days in bollywood.

Cinematographer Binod Pradhan can be proud of the fact that he could capture the beauty of God's own country,Kerala brilliantly may it be the visual splendor of the snake boat race,the enchanting backwaters or the lush greenery of paddy fields in Kuttanad.Still,as a keralite I must admit the fact that the slang used by keralites in the film is far from original and the sets erected during the market fight sequence too was exaggerated and hostile to kerala.

The name Julius Packiam have become synonymous with thrilling background scores and here too he did his part well utilizing the enthralling single 'Get Ready To Fight' composed by Pranay Rijia.The songs by Amaal Malik,Manj Musik and Meet Bros were good and choreographed well.

Tiger Shroff looked convincing as the rebellious lover and was brilliant in handling action sequencs with perfection reminding of eminent martial artist specialists like Tony Jaa and Iko Uwais.Still,there was room for improving his acting skills which I guess he will,in films to come in the future.The fact that he has gained huge support from the viewers was evident by the big numbers in for the show,including a good number of families.Shraddha Kapppor didn't have much to perform than looking over-cutish which is a cake-walk for her.Shifu Shaurya Bhardwaj was impressive as the martial arts guru and mentor of Tiger.Sudheer Babu as the antagonist did his part well.Sunil Grover couldn't shine in the role of Shraddha's father.

Overall,Baaghi is worth a try if u can cash in some breath-taking action sequences and exquisite visuals of kerala and Thailand.

It was a pretty good time past and had appropriate violence. Followed its plot at all times and had a few unexpected twists. Don't go by the trailer because its actually way better then you what a normal average bollywood movie to be. Plus this is Tiger Sheroff's 2nd movie, gotta admit that he did an excellent job, so did Shraddha Kapoor. Rocky Handsome and Baaghi are probably the most violent bollywood movies of 2016 but they were both enjoyable but Baaghi is more appropriate and has less brutal violence. Baaghi doesn't look like a comedy movie but it had quite a few scenes which made laugh my head off. The songs were amazing and the action was lit. I give this a straight up a 8/10 because I enjoyed it with my family but it was like a mashup of some older bollywood films but still I don't care about, all I care about how good the movie was and I think it did pretty well. For sure one of my top 5 favourite films this year. I think this movie should've deserved a higher rating around a 7 or 7.5 because that pretty explainable. I think you guys should definitely go see it!

Baaghi is a true entertaining film.People who love hardcore action,can be satisfied by this flick.The locations,specially Kerala is projected brilliantly.Tiger Shroff has gradually developed his acting after his debut film Heropanti.His action sequences are eye soothing for all. Shraddha Kapoor is always a package of entertainment,She has done full justice with his work,specially the Fight Sequences.Sanjay Mishra has done a good job by his ever worthy comic scenes.Sunil Grover has done his job good.Best part of the film is Debutant Sudheer Babu's performance.So,on the whole Baaghi is really an entertaining,yet a compact film.So who ever has not watched this power packed Entertainer,should really watch this in nearby theaters.

I am giving 6 out of 10, because they have used the name of 'Martial Arts'. I love Martial Arts, but this movie had the same Bollywood typical story. They had to make it a pure Martial Arts movie.

As some reviewers say "This boy (Tiger Shroff) can't act, but can kick." He loves martial arts, he has the body, the skills but he don't have the idea how to say a dialogue, how to act a romantic scene, how to smile or how to help people to smile. And oh my god his lip- syncing is awful.

And Shraddha Kapoor as always acting same as she acting in her 1st movie "Ek Villain".

Some say this movie is copied from Telugu movie 'Varsham' and Indonesian movie 'The Raid'.

All I say is "One Time Watch".
