Commando

After a very long time, I got to see a very good Hindi Action film. It had just everything .....A kick ass action hero, an over the top villain, a heroine who spouts gr8 one liners, excellent location and some very well shot and executed action sequences. The only thing lacking was a entertaining item number. But I overlook the later.

The movie starts off well and there is rarely a moment where it becomes boring (except when the songs come in). The last 5 mins I felt is a little let down. However, this film is far better than the crappy South Indian action film remakes that are churned out over the last few years.

Jamwal is an actor to look out for. After a long time, Bollywood gets a fine action hero. Along with him, Alhawat is another terrific actor. He makes his AK 74 an entertaining villain who mercilessly kills people but before killing them tell them a joke so they can laugh while dying. Hope both of them get more roles and scripts that show their skills.

This movie is for pure action buffs....so others stay out !!

Commando One Man Army Title Tells Everything about Movie. Vidyut Jamwal is only reason to watch movie. His Stunts are unbelievable. I guaranty you that you have never seen such FAADU stunts Ever. Movie have very poor story screenplay and direction. Pooja Chopra is failed to make mark in this movie.She not suites in Simrit's Character. As Vidyut Jamwal performance in FORCE we all have very much expectations from him in COMMANDO and he not disappoint us. He really takes action to another level.His dialogues are also quite good. Vidyut Jamwal is best action hero in India as per my views. He performed all his stunts by himself without using cable except one where he jump in the valley. Movie may made better if the story was strong and directed with some better director. If that happen i am sure movie will become best action film ever made in bollywood. If you want to watch some stunning stunt's and you are fan of action movies then this is treat for you.

Oh my gosh! Incredible. Finally Vidyut Jamwal, a real action hero has arrived in India. Although he debuted in Force along with John Abraham, it would be wrong to term him hero for that, because his role was of a villain. But in Commando, he is a full-fledged tough action hero without much CGI effects as disclaimed by the film units.

To be straight, Commando works only because of Vidyut Jamwal's martial arts stunt skills, and the villain who would go beyond ruthless or brutal for saving his honor. Besides, former Miss. India Pooja Chopra's first leading role which would remind you of Kareena Kapoor's role as Geet in Jab We Met as a talkative with straight forward behavior. Pooja performed her best to go on accordingly with the offered role, and is not less impressive.

Vidyut plays here as Karanvir Dogra, a savior to Simran who is forcefully threatened to marry by the local gang leader AK 74. Karan is a highly skilled Indian Commando who was wrongfully arrested & tortured in China by mishap during an operation. After one year, the story shifts to Simran who is on an attempt to secretly run away from home to stay away from AK 47, who is cynical to marry her. Then, she meets Karan who encounters all the goons to prevent her from being chased by them. Now, begins the cat and mouse chase part.

There were many Bollywood action movies in the past, but this movie holds a special place in the list because of the real life martial artist Vidyut Jamwal who alone dominates the whole story of Commando. Action movies acted by Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgn, John Abraham etc. were nothing to this newly arrived action hero who is fully prepared to impress the present generation with a macho & flexible personality. Those olden days are over where CGI and wired stunts were carried to entertain the audiences in the form of masala movies. Yes, Commando is also a masala action movie, but it's much tougher and real like type in actions and stunts. I would term Vidyut Jamwal as a new Bruce Lee with lean muscled body who can fly, jump or climb to any extent if necessary to eliminate the goons. And yet, he performed those with panache and natural looking form that you cannot negatively compliment on it. Newbie director Dilip Ghosh did unpredictably a good job.

Final word guys – watch it if you are really a crazy fan of action or thriller genre movies, and sure you will be impressed by Vidyut. Keep my words. And, Vidyut has a good way to go ahead in Bollywood.

Even though the movie is riddled with flaws, when you get a hero with such a macho on-screen persona, a manly base voice, and real fighting abilities, along with a decent plot-line, all is forgiven. Intense, fluid, and more importantly believable fight scenes, daring, edge-of- the-seat stunts, hard-hitting and memorable one-liners, Pooja Chopra's refreshing effervescence, Jaideep Ahlawat's convincing malice laced with mean humor (unlike Prakash Raj's umpteen failed endeavors to successfully portray these two traits in cringe-worthy villainous avatars), a convincing narrative arc, and above all, Vidyut Jamwal's awe-inspiring rendition of a tough-as-nails action hero make this movie a complete blast.

Most non-action movie fans might not be able to overlook some gaping loopholes. But for us action junkies, this is one awesome testosterone driven, adrenaline pumping ride from start to finish. If only this film had done away with some of its narrative blunders, it could have been an instant action classic. Nevertheless, its still a thrilling ride that no action fan should miss.

Indian Cinema has finally got its next big action hero after Dharmendra, Amitabh Bacchhan, and Akshay Kumar.

This is for the first time I am writing a review on IMDb though I have been following IMDb for the last 5 years, but this movie " Commando " has made me write it, First of all, I always love Hollywood films, I hardly like Indian Films, but When i first saw a promo of Commando I thought this is the Indian movie I should be watching, Offcourse I missed it in the theatre, but got a DVD copy of it.. What Do i say of this movie, VIDYUT JAMWAL is my next ACTION HERO, It was action packed movie, although there were some scenes where things have gone astray with the item number, nevertheless I really really loves it. Now i will highlights the points in terms of various aspects of it,.

1. Direction 7/10 : Direction was good enough, although I believe, the director could have added more to the end sequence, where the Army , and Police arrives.

2. Editing 5/10 : Although the direction was good, but i believe the director should have called some more skillful. There were points when they continuity went Haywire, it just didn't click to me..

3. Cinematogrpahy 9/10 : I am happy the Cinematographer had decided to stick to Hollywood standards, the camera movements captured the whole ambiance of the surround, felt like watching Hollywood movie.

4. Acting 8/10 : Although i liked Vidyuts acting , but pooja chopra's Acting was really not up to the mark, she struggled with Dialouges at time,

5: Dialouges : 8/10 : I am glad they broad sarcasm and intelligence in the dialouges,

6: Music 4/10 : Almost every aspect of this movie was good but the poor music kind of lost the touch with the story..

Overall the movie is a must watch, and I am glad the movie has been widely appreciated, I am going to watch it again ...
