Abbas Mastan the director duo are one of the few directors in the Indian film Industry who have their own inimitable style of film making. Though they specialize in the thriller genre but have occasionally tried their hands on other subjects as well. Long way back I watched Agneekal a potboiler in the late 80's directed by the duo probably their first movie. Though they became known for their suspense thriller Khiladi in early 90's and then the blockbuster Baazigar recognized them in the top notch category. The reason for this long introduction is to give the readers a pulse check about the duo.

Machine their latest offering is important in many ways as it marks the debut of Mustafa son of Abbas. So what is Machine all about? In Simple words it is a redraft of Abbas Mastan's most successful movie till date i.e Baazigar.

Good thought from the director duo as Baazigar started an era of Stardom for SRK. But Mustafa is no SRK and Machine is no Baazigar.

Let me give some facts as why was Baazigar was such an iconic movie.

1.Excellent acting by Sharukh Khan with good support from the entire cast

2. Outstanding Music from Anu Malik

3. Movie focuses on how the murder is planned rather who did it.

4. Very good screenplay

5. Compassion from the audience for an antihero

Machine does not have any of the above and fails miserably in all departments. The movie does not show any form which leads to a good thriller. Also some of the instances are very immature, like how do you expect an unknown lover writing letters with his blood and sending greeting cards in 2017. Very amusing in such an age where the social media is used by a youngster as their first priority.

The director did not care about this and demonstrated things that does not make any sense and looks sidesplitting. Abbas Muston did not realize Baazigar was released around 24 years ago and the audience taste have changed since then. So the plots that looked very refreshing in 90's looks very lame in Machine i.e is the concept of the silent lover and that too not being explored deeply.

Lots said and done I am so fond of Baazigar that I'll keep on comparing it with Machine as this is a badly conceived movie. Few veteran actors who use to be favorite of Abbas Mastan can be seen in this movie but they come and they disappear.

The acting is below average from all the actors baring the sole saving grace Ronit Roy who is good in a small but a significant role. Kiara Advani looks good but cannot act as per the demand of the movie. Mustafa tries very hard but fails as he does play a desperado but his actions are not justified and the audience do not identify with him. This was exactly opposite in Baazigar where the audience felt for SRK even though he was wrong in his engagements.

The college portion depicted in the movie is very funny and audience cannot relate with it. Music also is only cacophony. Even the remix of Tu Cheez badi hai mast mast the 90's blockbuster song does not create any impact.

Machine has nothing to offer it is like serving an old wine with bad packaging and bitter taste. Not a good launch for Mustafa. Abbas Mastan can be better if they move with time then being stuck in it.

How can you make such a movie. Same story same plot. The twists were ok and the location and songs were fabulous but OMG. This is literally the worst movie Abbas Mastan have given till date. It's not boring but it's just the same thing over and over again. Mustafa was somewhat ok but he needs time to make himself and the rest were just their for playing around. This movie is not what I expected from the duo

It was downright painful to sit through this disaster!

No story, no performances, no relation to reality, and absolutely no emotion.

You watch some scenes, and wonder, whats the point? Especially when the background story is revealed, nothing makes sense in terms of eliminating certain characters.

The dialogues are so corny (half are Instagram memes come to life) that you applaud the actors for keeping a straight face through them. lol

I felt for the girl for a bit, but she is so disappointing in the ending that you're just done with all, and if they all blew up in the end, you wouldn't even bat an eye.

Don't watch it.

We generally act in front of kid by stepping on Banana peel and slip. This is to teach them not to throw things on road and be vigilant while you walk.

SIMPLE !

Same goes for this abominable-worthless-peel on the cinematic road ! Don't dare to step on it , you will fall and may take days to recover ! EVEN if someone pays you to see it AVOID. Worst of acting , direction, bad tunes, no story , funniest and confusing ending !

For me, to make the things worse, after coming from the movie hall : people were still saying the actress was "fresh", "fine" and movie should get 2 or 3 start. WHY we don't have NEGATIVE stars ! - I wonder now.

And actress ? Esha Deol look-alike, she doesn't know A for acting and so-called Hero ?! he doesn't know the vowel "a" !!! leave alone asking for more.

When we the Indian people will appreciate ORIGINAL , GOOD, INSPIRING and INNOVATIVE Cinemas. Enough of khans, dhawans, kapoors etc. Lets be part of change. ( I SAW "TRAPPPED" movie twice , paid full. I contributed to a better cinema. Cheers )

I mean who in the blue hell produced this disastrous crap. One of the most Cringeworthy, brain numbing movie with the most Un-natural Actors I've ever seen. The movie is filled with cringe, cheesy dialogues and subplots taking source material from Baazigar, Humraaz and others. The actors needs to retire and get a normal day job; cus they are the furthest thing away from acting; shame to see johnny lever associating himself to such stupidity; but he's been doing that for the past few years anyways. I pity the people who actually contributed to the movies 20crore collections against it's 40 crore budget. This should not have even collected 1 crore. Luckily I didn't spend my hard earned money on such worthless space usage of cinema screens. But those who did; you could have stuffed yourself with Junk food and even that would have been justified as compared to spending your money on this crap.

The movie has similarly with Baazigar. The title machine is explained and can be understood. The movie is good until the machine title mystery is revealed. Till that point the movie can be watches though it is not so great script.

The real problem is the story. It is incomplete. When the machine title mystery is revealed, the movie should have got over in next 5 minutes with whatever culmination they wanted to give. But the movie continues for 30-45 mins more without any story. Also, the other actor who is given so much of screen time in the 2nd half looks like a monkey. He can't act.

Abbas Mustan's direction is stylish as usual but lack of story and bad artists, make this movie a headache.

I thing this movie hit , long tim after watched movie I m sock. Awesome acting and lovely Song Mustafa

Abbasmustan is great personality it's awesome movie machine wonderfull acting Mustafa burmawala

Best best best full enjoy movie machine waiting for next movie Mustafa

Hi, I just love the concept, songs awesome, thriller super, overall i just like the concept and story of the movie, it is correct if u keep instead of Mustafa Burmawala some other Bollywood hero's, people would have like it more as Mustan Burmawalla, Abbas Burmawalla brothers they have given such a great hit movie so that it should be too, but this is totally my point of view i like the movie and the work of Kiara Advani and Mustafa. Grt work guys, just wish you all the best, good luck :-)

Ek no. Bawal movie mast story bawal macha diye Mustafa tumne bawal movie bawa

Nice movie...yes it lacks some directions and th narration of the story in the middle somewhat feels like a drama....To a casual view of the story,the ambiguity of some characters of how thy were put nd how thy came nd go in the story adds more to the drama...but hey,the overall review should be how one felt on watching the entire play and in no dilema to say the message it gave at last filled the heart with emotions to the brim.A sad ending may not be cool to some but was it was way virtuous nd sensible,a thing that would capture a picture in everybodys heart.

Good Story , Thought This Will Be Bad But I Was Wrong , I Don't Why It's Rated 2.6 And The Songs Was Beautiful
