    Frankly, better than an overrated Raazi

    Raazi was praised because an Indian 'woman' spy 'marries' a 'Pakistani' and reporting to India. Nothing else. Oh, a woman could do this. She did that. Oh, how courageous. It's more of a woman-centered film than a patriotic film. That's where Romeo Akbar Walter aka RAW differs.

    RAW is very simple and cliche from the beginning scene. There is nothing interesting nor anything different in the film. It will take a lot of patience to sit through the film unless cliche is OK. It isn't boring at any point though nor is it over the top in any scene. But the last 20 minutes and the last 10 minutes are worth the entire film. The climax is beautiful and painful at the same time. It so much reminded me the pain of the character(s) in the film '1971' starring Manoj Bajpai (which probably is the best film on 'Indians in Pakistani soil')

    Do give this a watch. It's worth it (and if you haven't watched '1971', oh please do watch that too - a well written film).

    Definitely a good watch

    Not sure about the other reviews but I think it was definitely a good script, good acting. Worth 8 stars.

    The movie is a brave attempt, watch for the stunning climax

    Romeo Akbar Walter is a thriller movie directed by Robbie Grewal and stars John Abraham, Jackie Shroff, Mouni Roy, Sikandar Kher, Raghubir Yadav, Rajesh Shringpure and Alka Amin.

    There have been lots of negative and probably biased reviews by the critics but the movie of not perfect but a great thriller. The best part of the movie is the climax and the meaningful dialogues.

    John Abraham has been doing such movies quite recently and did his this job with utmost perfection and honesty. Jackie Shroff is already a legend and knows how to do his job with perfection and played his character like Mozart playing piano. Mouni Roy was surprisingly good. Alka Amin and Raghubir yadav are another bunch of talent and were great in their respective characters. Sikandar Kher and Shadaab Khan came onscreen after a long time and were good.

    Although the movie is slightly predictable but the way it's executed should be appreciated. The screenplay is tight although romantic angle could've been avoided. Background music is good.

    If you are planning to watch the movie kindly ignore the negative reviews and watch this good if not great movie.

    Only if the script could have been tighter....

    Movie is a decent one time watch with few good surprises and the ending though bit predictable, is very beautifully executed. John is almost good in his role, only problem with him was he wasnt able to showcase all emotions properly, one such example of such role would be of Leonardo decaprio in The Departed, he would actually show his real self once he is alone and audience will get familiar with him. Here john remains a silent person throughout the movie which sort of looked like a shortcoming on his character part. Rest cast was ok. Surprises were good but still it lacked the sharpness possessed by Raazi. Overall again it can be said, its a decent one time watch, because Bollywood makes great peaces of crap and this flick surely is among good attempts towards better cinema. one time only
