Baabarr (2009)
A film that proves gangsters can't shoot straight!!!!
oh dear, oh dear...where to begin.... i read previews about this being a new 'Satya', a gore-filled gangster movie, gritty and exciting.... Well, its definitely not any of these. A relative of mine even watched the film and warned me about how bad it was, but did that stop me from watching this pile of dog poo? I've never seen so many gunfights in a movie were the shooters keep missing the targets, maybe except Commamndo and Rambo, but they don't claim to be 'realistic', like this rubbish does. One major scene (Spoiler) has a villain pointing a gun at Baabarr's head because he is supposed to kill him, he fires it...scene cuts.... the next scene Baabarr in hospital with a bandage around his head!! Talk about missing from point-blank range!! What was he firing anyway... a potato gun!!! Bad story, Bad acting, Bad dialogue, maybe the only saving grace a 'mildy' gory fight scene in an abattoir..... Mithun, what was you thinking of when you signed up for this movie....? Maybe you thought it was a sequel to Satya. My verdict...Skip this, watch Satya again...
Ashok (2006)
fast paced, action packed film
My mother tongue isn't the language spoken in the film, nor do i understand the language, but having just watched the non subtitled version of Ashok, i do understand visuals & emotions, & i gotta say, this is one cool, action packed film. Lots of slow-mo fights in the rain, big swords, one decapitation, one broken arm, lots of broken bones. For pure, unadulterated action, you can't go wrong with this film...for a meaningful story with drama, look elsewhere.... I'm just waiting for the subtitled DVD version to come out, so i can know why NTR is kicking the hell out of everyone. Also, for a lead actor so big, he can dance like someone half his weight, & with style.
