Rustom

Nice film. Nice music. Love the way story unfolds and make u mesmerise. Akshay at his best. Worth watching film. I guess available on ott. Iliana is looking fabulous. The three shots.

Good acting performances with a great body language of all the characters. Could have been formulated better, but with a good intent, it furnishes a decent delivery. Ileana looks very beautiful and she carried that character nicely. Pavan Malhotra as an inspector was bang on, something which is expected from him now. Akshay Kumar was at his usual flawlessness, as he is in these type of roles.

Suspense thriller that succeeds in maintaining the viewers interest alive till the very end of the movie. Went to see this movie without great expectations and found it reasonably good. Everyone in the audience seemed satisfied. Personally for me it was worth the time and money spent. The main character of the Akshay Kumar and is well supported by all other cast. The story takes twists and turns with backstory revealed gradually. Watched the movie sitting in the fourth row from the front with keeping the head up throughout. The movie was engrossing and did not let me feel the pain in the neck. The visuals are pleasing and we feel like being in environment of 1960. It is definitely well worth a watch for movie buffs. You will enjoy it better if you avoid knowing the story details.

I watched Rustom when it aired on Zee TV last evening. I did not expect too much from it based on press reviews even though it had done well at the box office. Was I surprised!

Even though everyone knows this movie is broadly based on the infamous Nanavaty incident, it was well made and riveting till the last scene.

Everyone but everyone essayed their role so well, especially the bawaji newspaper walla :) Akshay could well pass off for aapro Russi!

Rustom is one heck of a slick production, good plot, fabulous period sets, crisp dialogues, superb acting, cinematography par excellence.

This movie holds the interest throughout and the climax keeps you on the edge of your chair even though you very well know what is coming.

Well done Akshay, with Special 26, Holiday, Baby and now Rustom, you have really come well out of the Khiladi mould. Looking forward to more such slick productions.

Patriotism or Infidelity, Love for Nation or love for wife.. Was the director confused? So decided to keep both as main ingredients of this Thriller... So whats " Rustom " - Murder Mystery?? But then we know the murderer in first 30 mins.. Is it about " why she did what she did" Its easily given out in first half.. So here it goes- Rustom is a courtroom story of how a naval officer .. Defends himself.. How a judge gets in humour while the trial is on.. How a sister can wear a deep red pout while pleading to convict her brother's killer !! Ileana is overdosed on glycerin .. But so far this is her best.. Esha Gupta hired herself a new designer and she got this platform to show it all.. Otherwise who wears a page 3 outfit to court.. Arjan- nothing great about him.. His acting skills remain where they were.. Akshay... As good as he gets.. He is ageing gracefully and has totally justified his screen space. Songs can be given a pass.. Hats off to the casting director Shruti Mahajan for collecting together a well fitted cast.. Be it the investigating officer or the newspaper head who brought in the humour in n otherwise serious watch.. 👏🏼👏🏼 for you girl!! The story keeps one gripped.. Those who like courtroom drama .. Should watch!!
