Mission_Kashmir's rating
Obviously Kaante was made for the Indian audience, not Americans. So, it not fair to compare with a Hollywood film. Not a perfectly made film, it does have some illogical sequences. I saw it in a packed theater. And going by the reaction, everybody seems to have enjoyed it. As for me, Kaante was the most enjoyable Hindi film in a long time. I actually felt happy after walking out of the theatre.
Technically there is no Indian film that can match Kaante. Obviously, they got technicians from Hollywood. Right from cinematography to stunt co-coordinators to music supervisor. Dialogues were well written, but some might complain for being too crude. But then you don't expect gangsters to talk in Sanskrit or Urdu.
Sanjay Gupta's films usually are very stylish, but very poor content wise. But this is not the case with Kaante. The story is well developed, the second half is great. But it is definitely inspired by two Hollywood films: Reservoir Dogs & The Usual Suspects.
Performances by six lead guys are very good. Amitabh Bachchan is very good. Sanjay Dutt is brilliant in a tailor made role. Mahesh Manjrekar is the surprise packet. Sunil Shetty is actually good in this film. Kumar Gaurav & Lucky Ali does well also. The girls have miniscule roles.
The thing I really liked about Kaante is that it didn't really focus on Love, Family Relations, and other clichéd rules of Indian Cinema. It basically defies the stereotype of Indian Films.
Kaante is definitely worth a watch or two. I am going to watch it for a second time.
