Satyameva Jayate

I must say the movie has taken me by surprise. It is the same old story recycled. But, the pace of the movie and the fact that as the movie progresses clues were given makes the movie interesting to watch.

John Abraham as an angry man, fits well. Some dialogues are repetitive and some action sequences were a bit over the top. But then again John has worked hard on his physic and has to show it off. I did realize his facial features, he is very controlled. He has this intensitiy in his eyes so when he is angry you can feel his pain and anger.

His counter part Manoj Bajpayee is equally good. He does go overboard at times with his dialogue delivery. And also, this is a frequent character he plays so he is becoming synonymous with a police officer.

New comer, Aisha Sharma, was pretty good. I did like the fact her role was different than the typical herione roles. And I appeciated that she did not run after the main hero and it was a mutual consent between the two to be together. Her voice, however, did not seem to fit her look. It sounded like sand paper. And she did not have enough screen time.

The songs by various artists were pretty decent. The song "Dilbaar" was entertaining and Nora Fatehian can definitely dance, effortlessly.

Overall, the movie could have used some refinement work. There is a lot of spinning around to show dramatics but I think music would have been enough to make the point across.

The concept was good but the movie is typically bollywood style , too much of drama , hue and cry. Movie can be better with a better story lineup with much of logic. John is my favourite so can not be critical of him but still much improvement is needed in his acting. You can consider to watch this movie only if you are hardcore patriotic person and want corruption free country otherwise just skip this and watch quality one.

It's foolhardy to expect nuance from a jaded action drama that not only recycles 80s clichés, but also expects to pull off a reckless revenge in the absence of Amitabh Bachchan's charisma and Sunny Deol's fury. Only Satyamev Jayate's predictable twists and superficial emotions have absolutely nothing new to offer.

Satyameva Jayate is a fairly illogical commercial thriller fronted by two actors who deliver forceful performances. It may not be the most intelligent thriller, but its lack of pretence is its greatest asset. It's entertaining for some of the right reasons, and plenty of unintended ones.

Milap Milan Zaveri's story is simplistic, massy and something that the masses would applaud. Milap Milan Zaveri's direction reminds one of the 90s action dramas. Although it works in most parts, at some places the film begins to give a dated feel. On the whole, SATYAMEVA JAYATE is a powerful and gripping drama that leaves an impact as it resonates with the problems of the common man. It is sure to work big time in the single screens where the various scenes are bound to induce claps and whistles. This one is for the masses!

Milap Milan Zaveri with Satyameva Jayate shamelessly gets on the ground just with the thought of entertaining people. Never for a scene you'll feel Milap thinks that this is something 'a certain section' will not appreciate and does what he thinks is the best. Many hits, few misses but a honest product overall. All said and done, Satyameva Jayate provides unabashed entertainment. John Abraham - the Indian Hulk, Milap's seeti-maar dialogues will make you miss the times when masala entertainment was a trend in Bollywood.

'SMJ' desperately tries very hard to sell the age-old idea of revenge and righteousness. But the big booming treatment is a little too hard to accept and digest. With John in the film, one can expect good action, but it's gruesome and a little too bloody at times. Truth be told, the story is relevant in today's times, but too many cliches in the story and the style of storytelling will make you want to cop out of this one.

I had decent expectation for this movie after watching Madras Cafe and Parmanu but was sorely disappointed. If Gabbar is Back was innovative, this movie would be considered regressive. Manoj Bajpai had decent moments in the movie. Aisha Sharma's voice and acting was jarring at best. I wasted mine, please dont waste your precious 2 hours on this garbage.

I first saw this in a theater when it released. Revisited bits of it few days back.

It is about a vigilante (John Abraham) who kills corrupt cops by setting them on fire, thereby gaining public support for wiping out the corrupt cops.

Worried by the rising body count and seeing other cops terrified, an officer is assigned to hunt down the killer.

The film has lots of violent killings, an item song, some melodrama, Bollywood romance n a script straight outta the 80s but the end product is a decent action thriller with lots of dead corrupt cops.

Watch out for the beating of the bald cop.

I loved the beating of the pervert cop n its background music.
