    Ridiculous Attempt to show Muslims as the Bad Guys

    Just a ridiculous attempt to flag Muslims as the bad guys. I mean the writer tries to show that Muslims reek havoc everywhere, the story is all crap. The heroin of the movie has sex with the villain, means the movie shows women as whores. What the hell? It's a copy of Once upon a time in Mumbai, that movie was 10 times better and original. oh dear, oh dear...where to begin.... i read previews about this being a new 'Satya', a gore-filled gangster movie, gritty and exciting.... Well, its definitely not any of these. A relative of mine even watched the film and warned me about how bad it was, but did that stop me from watching this pile of dog poo? I've never seen so many gunfights in a movie were the shooters keep missing the targets, maybe except Commando and Rambo, but they don't claim to be 'realistic', like this rubbish does.

    Crime never dies, it only changes faces!!

    Well honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this movie when I started watching it. But things got better and I was actually impressed by the end of it.

    Om Puri, Mithun and Sushant Singh have done full justice to their roles (as usual).

    The newcomer Soham has given his best and would've pulled it off if it wasn't for his weak dialogue delivery.

    There are some real good scenes, my personal favourite being the fight sequence in the meat shack.

    The movie has been brilliantly done considering the fact that the writers haven't cooked up anything. (yes, its all true)

    All in all, a complete wrap up and very well done (no loose ends).

    good screenplay with bad Acting

    I dint have anything to watch until i found this movie in my database and checked the review and started watching it....Started very well and i was glued to it, after 25 minutes into the movie i realized that it isn't anything out of the regular chain of BHAI movies as we knight it..The story is nothing new but this would have been a great-to-watch if only the direction would have been better rather...only good...!! Apart from Tinu Anand (who gave us a part of Agneepath) no one else acted...it was filming all the way...specially the lead character...he needs to go to some good acting school.. OVERALL...a good movie with a bad Direction and acting...skip it for once and you wont regret it..!!!

    Underrated !! Must Watch

    I doubt if this film was a hit at the box office but I was eager to watch this film ever since I saw the trailer . There is some superb acting in this movie , good songs . I liked the dialogues and plot of the film as well.

    The lead actor Sohum Shah has acted impressively well for a debut film . Tinu Anand and Om Puri have shown their experience in this film with mature acting.The Villain Sushant Singh (Tabrez) has also done a great job and the role given to him was a perfect match for his personality.

    If you have missed the film and you hate the typical bollywood romance crap , this movie is a must watch for all crime genre fans out there.

    Masterfull..... A Fantastic Film!

    Ashu Trikha has made fantastic cinema in 'Baabarr', a brilliant film.

    An outstanding effort, a film that talks about crime. It says, Crime Never Dies, It Only Chances Faces...

    Yes, 'Baabarr' is gory & abusive, but that's works in it's favor. This film promises to be hard-hitting, and it lives up-to the mark completely.

    Right from the beginning when a teenager takes us to the world of these corrupt, evil people, your sucked into this violent world. Plus the culmination takes you by surprise... it leaves you awe-struck.

    Direction wise, Ashu Trikha does a brilliant job. He delivers one of the most powerful films of recent time. Dialogue are brilliant as well, so is the Cinematography. Music by Anand Raaj Anand is good.

    Performance-Wise: Mithun is fantastic. The style this man has is untouchable. Om Puri is first-rate as the corrupt cop. Soham as Baabarr, is very good. Playing a complex/conniving character with great understanding. He's here to stay. Sushant Singh is competent. Tinnu Anand is excellent; especially in his death scene. Mukesh Tiwari impresses, yet again. Shakti Kapoor is effective in a brief role. Urvashi Sharma looks pretty and delivers a fine performance. Govind Namdeo, Vishwajeet Prdhan & Pratima Kazmi, are good.

    On the whole 'Baabarr' is a powerful film. Violence can be ignored, watch this masterstroke.
