Humraaz

This is singularly the most entertaining movie from Mumbai. I think the credit should go to the incredible music of Himmesh R,The enchanting Choreography,a perfectly chosen Cast,and a brilliant direction by the Doti-clad Duo Abbas-Mastan. This is one of the movies where the talent has been put to good use even the children of lesser talent like Johny Lever. Akshay Khanna may never get a similar oppurtunity to display his talent of a conniving con Artist as he does here. Amisha Patel looks incredible gorgeous with some great dance numbers. Sunny Deol is just perfect as a Tycoon. There is no overacting or filthy gyration in the name of Choreography as in Salman Khan Movies which are bordering on vulgarity. All said and done an enchantingly entertaining film.

Great thriller that takes a look into the dark side of ambition. Each character has questionable motives, and the human drama alone kept me riveted thru the film. The acting is convincing and the plot has many surprising twists and turns. I enjoyed that every main character had committed some wrong--that they weren't totally innocent. It made the boundaries between hero/villain unclear at times, and it kept the movie unpredictable, and more believable. Amisha Patel was absolutely charming, Akshaye Khanna has a dark scheming edginess that gave me the chills, and I especially enjoyed Bobby Deol as the rich suave bachelor. Bobby Deol amazed me with his acting skills, and portrayed a wide range of emotion very convincingly. I loved the tension that this movie maintained...it was truly edge of your seat!

Humraaz is an immensely entertaining and classy film that is probably on par with any Hollywood thriller. The best thing about the film is that it keeps you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end! When you think the movie is over an unexpected twist happens to keep the pulse-pounding thrills sky-high. Plus, the movie has that traditional, nostalgic Bollywood style romance that everyone loves. Music by Himesh Reshammiya deserves awards, with the best songs being 'Bardaasht', 'Dil Ne Kar Liya', and 'Sanam Mere Humraaz'. Performances from the cast couldn't be better! This is Amisha Patel's best role to date (including 'Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai'), and Bobby Deol and Akshaye Khanna act with zeal and enthusiasm. The only let down of the movie is the cliched ending, but with a film that has appealed to you for a solid three hours, you'll fail to notice.

With all that said, Humraaz is a film for everyone, and the most appealing of 2002. Go rent it, or rather, buy it!

Humraaz is a thriller from Bollywood inspired by Hollywood. It's a love story too. Of course it has songs and they are ok in the context. The twists and turns are well handled and together with a cast that seems to enjoy themselves the film scores quite some points. Helas at the very end it loses a lot of them again with a ridiculous over the top showdown that is quite indigestable unless you really dig that particular brand of violence that is so typically Bollywood. Too bad since the film has a couple of violent moments before that which are much more realistic and scary. More amusing than scary is the fact that the bad guy usually is accompanied by Gregorian chants when he goes about his business.

One of the best Indian Movies, It's amazing, everything was perfect, the directors, the producer, the music, the lyrics

Bobby Deol, Amisha Patel and Akshaye Khanna, you've done a real excellent work! All the best for all of you & thank you.
