User Reviews

A Must See!

This is one movie that leaves an impression on all its viewers. After 2 decades I can still recall my first impressions of watching this movie.

Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor teamed up to make a string of hit movies in the '80's and this one here would have to be the pick of the crop.

It's a roller coaster ride from start to finish, with plenty of thrills to go with it. A movie with a great cast, script, acting and soundtrack makes for a great night in.

Danny is at his prime and plays your cliché'd movie villain with his usual style and hams it up and really has fun getting into character. Jackie Shroff is competent in his role but the true star here is Anil Kapoor. The term "Adem Jhakass!!" was born out of his crazy character in the movie, "Junior" and from start to finish, Anil carries the movie.

If you come across the DVD for Yudh, BUY IT!

This is a must for any half decent collector of quality cinema.
