Bichhoo

When I first saw this movie, I thought that it was ok. But after researching it again recently, I came to the conclusion that for a Bollywood thriller, this one is actually very good. Though storyline is thin and the plot is taken from a French movie, this movie still have some chilling scenes and depth in the relationship between the characters. Especially for a movies from the start of the millennium.

This Bollywood remake of Luc Bessons Leon was surprisingly good. I'm quite new to Bollywood films and didn't know what to expect. I chose a remake first so I could test the water a bit. I was quite surprised. Its no where near as good as the original but still its a really enjoyable action movie.

I had a bit of culture shock at first due to the amount of singing, but soon I began to enjoy that too. Its quite a stylish film as well and is not just a straight remake, although for the most part its sticks closely to the original. The performances are great and the action scenes all work quite well as well. We are also given more background on the Leon characters past. Something the original didn't have.

If you've never seen a Bollywood film before you could do a lot worse than see this...

Me and my homies watch movies of our lord bobby happily.

In my view this is one of Bobby Deol's best. This is different from regular Indian movies, which are usually long, dull, and predictable. Bichhoo is different, and even though it is a copy of Leon the Professional, it is great for an Indian movie. The story doesn't go soft and dry, the songs are not much of a disturbance to the pace, and Bobby Deol is believable as a tough-as-nails, battle-hardened, cold-blooded hero for hire! I didn't like his anti-cursing and anti-smoking attitude though, that was not realistic, not to mention his drinking milk like a good little boy, while he kills people for a living, was a bit out of place, oh well, this is an Indian movie after-all. The opening song with Hansraj Hans was a nice touch.

It was a remake of Luc Besson's movie called Leon:the professional acted by jean reno & Natalie Portman.

This is one of the best movie from Bollywood. Though it is copy of Hollywood again but it's worth watching.
