Phantom

I personally liked the movie. I disagree that it passes on the message of hatred towards Pakistan. It portrays hatred against terrorism and brings justice to the people of 26/11 attacks.I read other reviews and for some odd reason I felt connected to each and every scene of it.

Though some the scenes like planning the murder is Chicago,fight scenes in Syria doesn't seem like realistic but then it's supposed to be a movie which has drama as its genre.

A very honest attempt by the director and the Script Writer to bring attention to the Govt of Pakistan to hand over the terrorists to India.

Arijit's song added the extra niche of brilliance which is sung with so much emotion.

Good work Saif Ali Khan. Thumbs up !!

This is for sure the best Indian movie ever, everything was Perfect, The way kabir khan present the story we wish was true is commendable, and performances of Katrina Kaif and saif ali khan surely deserves national award, katrina once again proved that she is most underrated actress of bollywood whereas she is most natural actress in bollywood, 1st half was full on action thriller, keeping you on your seats edge but when u think its like a Hollywood thriller and then 2nd half comes as surprise, the pace slows down, you get time to relax, it pours feelings in you slowly, climax will definitely bring tears in your eyes and you will feel patriotic, not a single moment when u loose interest in it, and if saif shines in 1st half, its Katrina kaif who will outshine everyone else in 2nd half, brilliant piece of performances with eye pleasing sequences, plus a total roller coaster ride.

this is a good movie. Not great , not a classic , but a nice entertaining fantasy.

I am a Pakistani and I cried when I watched the 26/11 murders. Made my heart break as to how inhuman , humans can be.

So this whole Pakistani / Indian thing can be ignored ...nothing to do with you and me and watching this movie. It's a decent well made movie , good time pass. And I can understand the emotions. Same emotions I felt when the school children were murdered in Pakistan , same when 9/11 happened and so on. Certainly not a movie made from a bad place but a fantasy for the relatives of all the poor innocents who died then.

Rating: 15 strong violence Genre: Drama Action Thriller Directed By: Kabir Khan Run: 2hrs 16 minutes Starring: Saif Ali Khan, Katrina Kaif, Rajesh Tailang The title speaks for itself and so does the tag line! Phantom = Not true - illusory and 'A story you wish were true'. Bollywood does it again... another below average churn out. Based on the book 'Mumbai Avengers' penned by Hussain Zaidi, the response has been surprisingly debatable. Personal interest for me because this was the last Bollywood movie I worked on last summer as a Supporting Artist. I have to say I had more fun working on Phantom than I did watching it! But as usual, I ended upon the cutting floor, not even a view of my shoulder could be seen! But, I had more excitement spotting my fellow thespians than the actual plot of the movie. I won't bore you with details of the plot or synopsis but it's nothing you haven't seen in past from 24, Spooks, James Bond. Mission Impossible or Fury, only Phantom, was lacking in alertness, inactive. Both lead characters had no charisma - it was apparent their heart & soul was not in it. It's hard to comprehend that Kabir Khan released two movies in the space of a month that can be from extreme to another. Bajrangi Bhaijaan gives the message of hope between two international waters, peace and brotherhood and then you have Phantom that just ruins the concept of a novel by making it a predictable cliché. If Phantom does not encourage hatred between two countries I don't know what will. As I said earlier Bollywood churns out movie's like there is no tomorrow. There is no commitment to quality of the end product, from the actors, to the action, to the story line. But, then again that's 95% of Bollywood movies ingredient!!

I was a little apprehensive about watching this given its low rating. Then i checked some of the reviews and decided to give it a go. This is a reasonably good movie. It reminded me of the TV Show 24. Parts of the movie had that type of suspense and kept you on the edge.

Definitely not the best acting or script. Saif doesn't quite fit the role, nor does Katrina. Neither do they do anything to develop a strong character. Some parts are a bit cheesy or predictable. But then again you get the same with Jack Bauer and 24.

Don't trust the low rating. Its much better than that. Perhaps people who didn't like the plot dragged the score down by rating 0s.
