Blackmail

The opening scene made me think I was in a karoke bar and my partner immediately left the room at that point. What made me enjoy this film was mostly about what it wasn't. It had no gratuitous sex scenes, the kid spoke correctly, didn't mumble and wanted to be a race car driver when he grew up, and not a gangster or pimp. It had a mixture of traditional Indian dress and high end western clothing. The flying through the air when shooting was typical but no bloody chest wounds went along with this. Nobody even got hurt when they were pummeling each other's face. Guess I'm just tired of run of the mill American action genre films.

First of all, I think labeling this movie as an action/thriller is a definite misnomer. It is more of a drama. However, I think it's pointless to think too hard trying to categorize films only to strictly expect things typical of a film belonging to that genre. I mean come on, this is Bollywood. Blackmail has it all--action, drama, romance, the works. I thought there were some good action sequences, particularly the carnival scene. Priyanka Chopra and Diya Mirza don't have much of a role and are simply there to add a couple of songs. The essence of this movie is the father-son relationship. Suniel Shetty's adopted son means everything in the world to him after losing his real son. Ajay Devgan's search for his son leads him to a shocking yet heartwarming realization. The father-son relationship has been portrayed absolutely beautifully in this film. The climax is a real tearjerker. All actors and actresses have given extraordinary performances.

I rented this movie out, only because i had nothing else to watch. The Trailer of this movie looked quite boring and had below average reviews. Judging by the name, you expect this kind of film to be a lame duck. I was caught by surprise, when i saw this Superb movie. Ajay Devgan gives a brilliant performance as the convict waiting for revenge, against the Police (Sunil Shetty) that put him in prison, and was responsible for the death of his pregnant wife (Diya Mirza). There are some great scenes in the movie like when Ajay finds out he has a son, and his son is the boy he kidnapped. Heart warming and a little emotional relationship between father and son. Ajay wishes to keep his son, but his son wants to go back to Sunil, who he considers his father. A nice entertaining movie that has some action, comedy, family relationships and good drama. The movie wasn't a Big Hit, which is quite a shame. In my opinion, this is a Good film, worth the watch. The gorgeous Priyanka Chopra has a small role.The movie belongs to Ajay Devgan delivering one of his Best performances I've seen. Watch out for the item dance sequence by the sexy Monalisa.

Anil Devgan(cousin of Ajay) startd his career with a flop RAJU CHACHA returns with his cousin in this flop film

The movie isn't too bad though it's clichéd, done to death and borrows every ingredient from past

The film is a copy of RANSOM and mixed with other commercial ingredients

The kidnapping scene is well handled and actually kicks off the story which is boring before

But the ease at which the hawaldars disappear.etc is contrived

The backstory of Ajay- Dia is straight out of old movies and the twist that Parth is Ajay's son is straight out of PARVARISH

The characters of Mukesh Rishi and the overdose of stunts are done to death and look like old films and the climax too

The film is predictable and that is a downfall The scenes between Parth and Ajay are well handled

Direction by Anil Devgan is decent but he shd've thought of something new Music is forced

Action scenes are overdone, especially the MATRIX like stunts and the flying Suneil stunts and also Ajay ones

Ajay Devgan excels in his part especially in the emotional scenes and also in the scenes with Parth and with Suneil Suneil is decent though at times he hams it up Priyanka has just 3 tasks to do, cry Chiraag, say some lines and dance and she is nothing special Dia is better in her small role Parth is superb,A worth to watch child artist Mukesh Rishi is routine

This movie was a huge flop in India.But,unlike the critics,the movie was quite good.Apart from its action sequences,the story was quite good too.It revolves around Ajay Devgan,who wants to take revenge from the cop(Suniel Shetty),for killing his wife(Dia Mirza).

The entry of Suniel Shetty is too good.His wire-work looks good.Ajay Devgan is at his best.His fight at the carnival,and the ending,was really emotional.The best stunt was the Gypsy coming through the barrels of water,above the Honda CRX.It really blew away my mind. Priyanka Chopra and Dia Mirza are present in a very small role but do their bit in the form of a few songs.

Watch this movie only if you are a Ajay Devgan fan.He carries the whole movie on his shoulders,and performs terrifically.The father-son relation has been displayed quite well,and is emotionally captivating.Not bad...Not bad at all....
