Baadshaho

This movie doesn't live up to acting abilities of Ajay Devgn,Emraan Hashmi & Sanjay Mishra. Director Milan Luthria narrated a half cooked story with most ambiguous climax scene I've ever imagined. Illeana D'Cruz & Esha Gupta are terrible actresses. They proved me right once again. That's why both of them were mostly signed in multi-starer movies. Vidyut Jambval was average but underutilized not only as an actor but also as a stunts-man. Even Sharad Kelkar's performance was better than Emran Hashmi's because Hashmi's character didn't get as many lines as expected.

Ajay Devgn barely speaks in the movie and repeats "Char din" dialogue monotonously every time, when he appears on screen. If you people are genuine fans of Emraan & Ajay then please don't promote this awful dish disguised as a feature film. That sandstorm scene in the end was like the last nail in the coffin...

This film has a lot of "style" and "substance"; slick in sepia-toned, sandy Rajasthan. :). You will enjoy this heist-action film despite the apparent flaws.Baadshaho strikes a perfect balance between story and swagger. It's gripping; however, the pace loses steam post-interval. Nevertheless, other departments are good enough to pull the film until the climax.

Most films give enough mind space to predict what will happen next; they also present an opportunity to think on whether or not you are enjoying a film. Baadshaho doesn't give you much of a chance to think about how you are feeling about the film and succeeds in keeping you guessing about the next twist in a good way – but only in the first half.

Every time Bhavani (Ajay Devgn) and his gang get into a troublesome and complicated situation, you think of the many ways that they will uncomplicate. The film surprises with its solution and that's the beauty. This is what we expect from seasoned filmmakers. Unfortunately, the second half just goes loose. Also, I would like to talk about parental guidance -there's loads of Violence and a couple of abusive words. We can seebare-chested men and bare-backed women. The film has a couple of making out scenes.

Coming back to the advantages of this action slick-flick – it has been showcased in an interesting and different setting. Rajasthan in the 70s has been used and the events are planned using the emergency. Characterization and its building is interesting. Ajay Devgn, Emraan Hashmi, Esha Gupta, Sanjai Mishra, Vidyut Jamwal – have delivered their best. The surprise element was Ileana D'cruz - her character is of a shrewd ruler and she is convincing.

For the action part, I just need to summarize – it's an Ajay Devgn film!The songs are nice to listen to, and the background score is apt. Dialogues are the highlights; some could go down very well as Bollywood dialogue memories. You can definitely consider this over the weekend.

This movie is excellent.in terms of the story, screenplay and dialogues. The direction is average. Ajay Devgn looks convincing as Bhawani and his acting is one of the best of all time. The movie has perfect casting and all actor has done amazing job, for most actor this movie is an highlight of their career. The trio - Ajay Devgn, Emran Hashmi and Milan Luthria - has once again created a magic!

The flick is pegged as 'inspired by true events'; however, there are several creative liberties taken to tell a story with a number of imaginary sub plots. Interestingly, the director is able to hold the film as close to real. But let me warn you, the ending is a bit clichéd but then "who is complaining"!!

Final Verdict: It is a worthwhile film and has the potential to earn 100+ crores.

So JHC is passe' and people won't know if a plot, characters and even dialogues are plagiarized from the King of Thrillers' novels? Not quite, sir. Because this film is a straight lift from JHC's novel, "The World in My Pocket."

Now this plot is given the make-over, with a strange mish-mash of 1970s flavor, Rajasthani locales and some pretty good action sequences. But since there is no central plot, the film is disjointed and the actors / actresses are wasted. A fleeting reference is made to the (late) maniacal politician, Sanjay Gandhi. For some strange reason, to grab a local (female) ruler's gold hoard, the army is called in, who are present from the first to the last frame with their incompetent presence. I thought it would be the job of the Enforcement Directorate, Income Tax Department, or at least the local police? The latter are there, bumbling along, without any purpose.

The armored invincible van bearing the loot is of course, from JHC's masterpiece. I could not exactly understand Ajai Devgun's character in the film. Was he a personal body guard, or lover, or villager full of angst? We have Vidyut playing an OTP army major. One almost feels like slapping the character played by him. In real life, majors do not strut about in civvies, direct civil operations or argue with their COs. Or carry on clandestine affairs with royalty. Or maybe few do.. I can't say.

The indeterminate ending is good, because the film itself in indeterminate. The sandstorms have been portrayed nicely. Ileana looks good as usual. Not much is expected from her anywaz. The rest come and go without any purpose.

Certainly worth a watch. But a watch without expectations.

Don't go by the ratings, this is a crap movie, a total waste of time. I don't write reviews professionally but I'm compelled to warn you after wasting my time and money.

Ajay Devgn,Emraan Hashmi & Sanjay Mishra are far better actors than what they did in this Milan Luthria's directorial failure. They couldn't depict the era according to the movie plot. It was full of shortcomings from the very start and add to it the most ambiguous climax.

It seemed like the acting talent and the plot was wasted very badly by monotonous repetitive dialogues and flawed sequences.
