    Predictable, clichéd, boring,

    Many words come to mind when describing this film. Implausible, contrived, dire, pointless.... but I digress. This is the film industry at it's worst. Trying to put two eminently attractive people in leading roles into a film whose plot has more holes than 100 golf courses.I mean, what was the point? I ought to sue - "I maintain that the producers and distribution company did willingly deprive me of two hours of my life which I could have more usefully spent inspecting my navel.

    Ajay Devgan and Kangana Renaut may indeed be cute but they hardly rank highly in the acting stakes.Same goes with Boman Irani(who just played a joker in houseful 2).Anil Kapoor,however,tries to give his best and fails because of the weak plot.

    May be Priyadarshan should stick to mindless comedies, so we can be sure we're in safe territory. You won't be missing much if you skipped Tezz,It is avoidable at all costs. Watch Speed and other Hollywood action movies instead.

    TEZZ (Fast) – The Fastest Inspirational "Copy"

    Looks like these days in Bollywood, multi cast movies are either in demand or every aging actor needs to appear on screen badly. Gone were the days when a single movie used to rest upon the shoulders of script writer, director and finally actor. But now movies rest upon four pillars, multiple heroes (characters to confuse audience), daredevil fight sequences, cheap comedy and a meaty yet saucy item number. That is how a movie becomes a box-office hit. A few weeks ago it was "Houseful 2" and this week there are "Tezz" and "Life Ki toh Lag Gayee" which have been released.

    Coming back to Tezz and the controversies associated with it. Yes, the movie is a definite copy, but not only of 1994's "Speed", actually it is an amalgamation of many others as well. Just to quote here, "Speed" was inspired / copied from a Japanese movie named The Bullet Train (Subtitled 1975) which also inspired another director to make a Thai movie named 1 2 3 Monster Express (1977). So, connect all the points and characterizations to get "TEZZ". But some critics are saying that the movie is original, I wonder why! Might be it is in Hindi or it has some songs – only on these grounds the movie can be distinguished.

    The movie is about handful of army consisting of Ajay Devgan, Zayed Khan and Sameera Reddy, who plan to blast a train "London Glasgow Express 112". Why? Well the reason is quite confusing, at least for me, just because one of the men was deported and sent away from his family (wife and Son) and his career vanished, he, after returning back, wants to get some ransom from the government to compensate. Strange, isn't it? The actual reason behind was, he was supporting illegal residents by providing them work. And this is not ethical! Anyways, as it is a movie and anything can happen. The movie revolves around Anil Kapoor, Ajay Devgan, Zayed Khan, Boman Irani, Sameera Reddy and Kangna Ranawat. As far as the performances are concerned I must say it's a decent fare. Standing out of the stockpile is undoubtedly Boman Irani, not a single scene of his is missed by him, in doing justice to his role and impressing the audiences. I would like to mention two power-packed scenes, out of few, one in which he talks to her daughter over phone and the other one when he gets a one to one argument with Anil Kapoor, his voice, his movements and his passion are all at display. Then comes Anil Kapoor, it is a treat to watch him after Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol. He excels in every scene. Anil Kapoor has star power, believe it or not, his screen presence, attitude and self-obsession makes him loved by his fans. Even his silent moments are very well executed.

    Ajay Devgan, after Singham, performs quite an underrated performance. Some might like his performance, but at places he appeared performing the same roles from "Khaakee" or "Qayamat". Zayed Khan has appeared after a long time and he performs well, though his role had nothing much to offer. But it was a sincere effort by him. Sameera Reddy did leave a mark in brief appearance. Kangna Ranawat, the root cause of the movie, gets few scenes to perform and she is improving to certain extent. Mohanlal (the Amitabh of South) is totally wasted in the role of a cop. If any scene will get smile to your face then it is all because of Neeraj Vora, he is natural and flawless in a small sequence with Anil Kapoor. Definitely his fans would love to see more of him in future.

    Direction of the movie is very impressive and so are the action sequences. The item number "Laila" performed by Mallika Sherawat offers nothing much, not for masses and not even for classes! But Sunidhi Chauhan did a great job.

    On the whole actors' attempt was serious and applaud able and hard-work can be witnessed in the scenes, but dialogues and other major things simply could not save it. The only few reasons for this movie to do good business include "Masala Formula" with "Angrezi Tarka", action scenes, watching Anil Kapoor after a long time and Ajay Devgan's fan following after "Singham". Logically the movie has so many flaws. If you are a movie buff who likes every single Indian movie and are inspired by Desi thrillers and "Attitude stuff" then watch it, else you can miss it too!

    Bollywood only best police chasing film, 1 star raters are chu##yas

    Look like 1 star raters hate Ajay Devgan thats why they give such rating. But its a good move with lots of fast moving scenes which are rare to see in other movies.

    A Decent Thriller!

    'Tezz' is A Decent Thriller, that works in parts. The pace is mostly fast, while the narrative is engaging, at times. The fine cast also deliver.

    'Tezz' Synopsis: To avenge his past, Aakash Rana (Ajay Devgn) plants bomb in a train endangering lives of 500 passengers.

    'Tezz' is an interesting idea, that translates into a decent watch. However, the Screenplay isn't arresting at all times. The first-hour is slow-paced & the unwanted songs bore. Its the second-hour that thrills & engages you. The multiple characters are diverse from one another, but they aren't always convincing, thanks to the erratic Writing. Robin Bhatt's Screenplay is quite good in parts, but overall, its flawed. Better Writing was needed! Priyadarshan's Direction is alright. Cinematography is top-notch. Editing is crisp, especially towards the second-hour. Music by Sajid-Wajid is dull.

    Performance-Wise: Ajay Devgn enacts his part with conviction. Anil Kapoor is superb. The veteran portrays his part effortlessly. Zayed Khan is efficient. Boman Irani is earnest, as always. Kangana Ranaut doesn't work. Sameera Reddy leaves a mark. Mohanlal scores in a brief role. Bhavna Pani is adequate.

    On the whole, 'Tezz' does offer entertainment, but in parts.
