Omerta

I had higher expectations maybe from Hansal Mehta and Rajkumar Rao. The movie is basically a character study. Even though people might take it and use it in the wrong sense, but such movies too need to be made. Rajkumar rao was good, maybe a bit less intense than i expected. The british accent was very inconsistent and poor, and that i something which is important in this film.

Love to see Bollywood's standard is increasing by making such top level movies with pure acting and amazing direction. Rajkumar is definitely an A level performer. The entire movie, it's environment and impact is equally appreciable. It shows light on the terrorism and brain washed intelligent terrorist. Music, direction and scenes are intense. The movie is a full package. I can say it's an Oscar level one.

Omertà is a gripping and intense biographical crime drama about Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, a cold-blooded, blood-thirsty madman British-Pakistani terrorist responsible for kidnappings, financing 9/11 and the murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl. He was caught and arrested in India for kidnapping foreign tourists and was put behind bars. However, was later released in an exchange for the hostages on a hijacked Air India flight taken to Kandahar in 1999.

Rajkummar Rao delivers a commanding performance as Omar. He portrays the chilling brutality which is quite unsettling and complexity of the character to the perfection and with ease. Convincing performances by supporting cast esp. Timothy Ryan Hickernell as Daniel Pearl. Well-crafted and masterfully directed story of a radicalized young man who becomes a hardened cold-blooded murderer. Crisp editing and well-fitted original score. Film is taut.

Omertà is a code of silence about criminal activity. It is an oath to not to give any evidence against a mafia to authorities.

A great watch.

Omerta as the meaning goes deal with mafia and their tactics.The movie is an intelligent blend of real life facts portrayed with great acting performance by Rajkumar Rao which surely puts him ahead of various A-list actors.The movie has a limited runtime of 1 hour 30 minutes but covers almost every dark aspect of the life of protagonist character.Certain scenes from the movie feel so real that they give you chills all over.But the X-factor here is the amazing direction which makes the movie an easy affair for every set of audience despite the confusing & dark theme.You certainly can't expect a positive message or a happy ending from such movies instead they are made for one purpose,to entertain and put light over the facts we mostly are unaware of.You can argue about the negative aspects of such cinema but you can't overlook the unmatched performances put in by everyone involved.The editing of the movie makes it stand apart from the normal bollywood movie league.From the point it began till it ends,you doesn't lose the connection with the characters.The boldness of the story and audacity to reflect the real image of the world force you to give it a thumbs up without any complains.The strong background score provide a certain pace to the movie and the music grips you with shades of foreign languages.

Well if you have a neck for meaningful cinema this is the best you can choose from the limited options.

One of the very few movies that make you fall in love with the art of story telling. A perfect blend of natural acting, cinematography, music and showcase of real incidents doing complete justice to the main plot.
