Laal Kaptaan

This is not a conventional action film or a regular period film as such, its just a fiction mixed with some assumed real incidents. So for a different entertainment and flavor, this is good stuff.. Just sit back and enjoy the film and the shades, and the acting.. No judgments. If all try to be critics then who will be the audience. Just keep the pen and paper aside without writing down the good and the bad stuff.. And be a raw viewer for a better experience.

Nice saga story of a naga. Watchable for saif's best ever performance, and Deepak' s fabulous performance.

Definitely, best of this year as for as concept, treatment & technique concerns! It has pure feel of Hollywood type movie with true thriller movie concept. Recently if I have to compare it, I will say it has same feel as of " Bone Tomahawk " & that is the best complement I can give for direction! Length is bit too long, especially second half but it rarely drags anywhere in between. Performances are 'A' class Saif, dobriwala, zoya Hussain have played perfectly. Only blemish I can see is Manav vij. Though a good actor just caught in the magnitute of big role in offer. He has an opportunity to make this great role into legendary but he can't lived to expectations. Looked very rigid. Director Navdeep deserved full credit and all accolades for wonderful job done. It was his best work after "Manorama five feet under" and best ever as for big commercial project. I wish this gets the success it deserve. It helps us narrowing the gap between Bollywood & Hollywood !

Finally, we get to see our Cinema experimenting outside traditional boundaries.

People who didn't like this movie will probably hate iconic films such as good bad and ugly, taxi driver or raging bull, but these films are showcased as examples of fine film making around the world.

IMO, Lal Kaptaan is an extremely well made film that deserves it's recognition in our industry. Indian cinema needs more creative projects like this, or else we will be stuck with another four installments of mindless "Dhoom's" and "War's"!

Worth watcing movie.....a journey of revenge....Good acting...story could be strong...
