'Toofan' is a dynamic action film that manages to pack a punch while also delving into profound emotional and social issues. The movie maintains a relentless pace, weaving its narrative with impactful action sequences that are heightened by the presence of genuine emotion.
**Music and Score (8/10):* While the movie's songs may not be its strongest suit, the background music is stellar. It enhances crucial scenes, adding depth and intensity to the storytelling. The score elevates the overall quality of the film. But I missed singer Asif Akbar's golden voice!
**Balancing Action and Emotion (9/10): 'Toofan' finds the delicate equilibrium between high-octane action and heartfelt emotion. This unique blend not only entertains but also gives depth to the action sequences, making them more resonant with the audience. It's evident that the filmmakers aimed to create an action film with a heart, and they succeeded in doing so.
**Addressing Social and Political Issues (9/10):* The film takes a bold step by addressing pressing social and political concerns. What's notable is its impartial approach; "Toofan" isn't politically biased but instead scrutinizes the systemic flaws ingrained in our society. This choice ensures that its message remains universally relevant.
**Pacing and Emotional Depth (7/10):** While the movie's fast tempo adds to its excitement, it occasionally hampers the emotional depth of certain scenes. Slowing down at times could have allowed for more profound exploration of the characters' feelings and experiences. Nonetheless, the film manages to forge a connection between the audience and its characters.
**Cinematic Brilliance (9/10):* Visually, 'Toofan' is a work of art. The cinematography is nothing short of exceptional, immersing viewers in a visually captivating world. The film's stunning visuals contribute significantly to its overall allure, making it a cinematic treat.
**Outstanding Performances (9.5/10):* Shakib Khan delivers a remarkable performance that steals the show. His portrayal is compelling and authentic, adding layers to his character. Chanchal's presence is a welcome addition to the ensemble cast, contributing to the film's overall excellence.
**Conclusion (8/10):* 'Toofan' is an action-packed thriller that doesn't forget to carry a social conscience. It successfully navigates the terrain of action and emotion, offering audiences a unique cinematic experience. While pacing issues may hinder emotional connections at times, the film's cinematic brilliance, strong performances, and impactful background score make it a must-watch. "Toofan' not only entertains but also provokes thought on the systemic issues it confronts, making it a compelling addition to the action genre.

"This is the best Bengali movie I have ever seen. It has immense potential to break all past records. Director Raihan Rafi, superstar Shakib, Chanchal Chowdhury, and all the actors have delivered outstanding performances, rating 10/10. The director deserves thanks for presenting such a beautiful movie on such a low budget. I hope the golden days of Bengali cinema will return through this movie. The film's BGM, background music, cinematic view, along with the exceptional acting of the prominent actors, will offer Bengalis a new kind of wonder never seen before. Thanks to Raihan Rafi for gifting us such a movie.
"Toofan" presents a promising plot for Bangladeshi cinema. Megastar Shakib Khan, along with Mimi (from Kolkata) and Nabila, have given their best efforts under the direction of Raihan Rafi. While the first half is average, the second half is quite thrilling and maintains a fast pace.
As a director, Raihan Rafi has certainly put in his best effort. However, when compared to global cinema, the plot lacks the 'wow' factor. "Toofan" weaves a story of twists, crime, and political violence. Unfortunately, Shakib Khan tends to overact when a more restrained performance would suffice. In contrast, actors like Salauddin Lavlu, Misha Sawdagor, Gazi Rakayet, Shahiduzzaman Selim, and Chanchal Chowdhury are known for their natural and method acting in Bangladesh. Despite involving many talented actors, Raihan Rafi did not manage to showcase everyone's skills to their fullest.
From a technical standpoint, some of the background music seems to be copied or inspired by recently released Hindi movies. The film features only two original songs. Additionally, the storyline has several loopholes.
On a positive note, the camera work and cinematography are commendable, thanks to Tahsin Rahman's efforts.
Overall, "Toofan" is a decent effort and a good start for Bangladeshi cinema. It's a commercial film that you can enjoy with family and friends in the theatre. While the execution could have been better, my overall rating for the film is 6 out of 10.

I saw Shakib Khan in a different way in this movie. He gave the best performance of his life in this movie. His dialogue delivery was amazing. Raihan Rafi has managed to use him very well. When you watch Tufan movie, every moment will pass through your time thrilling and intense.
But Mimi Chakraborty and Nabila didn't have much to do in the movie. Shakib Khan has done the movie alone. The acting of Misha Saudagar, Chanchal Chowdhury and Shahiduzzaman Selim as supporting cast was top class. Moreover Ghazi Rakayet and Salahuddin Lovelu are also used very well.
There are some unreleased songs from the movie, hope you like them.
