Indian Police Force

I have started watching the series so I have to finish it but having watched web series like Family Man, Special Ops, Jack Ryan, Farzi.. This is a HUGE disappointment. Had this been a movie it would have done better, since there are so many stupid exchange of dialogues that it becomes super cringe.

You can tolerate characters not sticking to their roles for 2 hours but this is 4 and a half hours and repeated torture. I am really just watching it to complete it now. Had someone just asked this question on the set or during scriptwriting, "What would X character of a police officer/terrorist/politician do or say in this situation?" the result would have been extremely different. I feel the actors did their jobs well, but the overall tone/direction/script/dialogue didn't give them enough room to work with.

The moment I'm writing this review it has a rating of 8.3 with 24k accounts rating it, possibly paid rating because it is just not possible, taste in movie is subjective but still it is not possible for something so substandard be it acting, dialogue, screenplay, direction to have such a high rating, this deserves zero for wasting resources. Director wanted to showcase delhi police but nothing made connection to delhi, they failed at every front be it the accent, streets, shoddily painted autos, cars with makeshift number plates, one bald police character tried speaking two words in a local manner but still managed to mess that up. This felt like a forced effort, forced in a sense where prime paid money to the makers but makers had no heart in it, just wanted to make anything and deliver. Delhi crime series is a closest display of how delhi police actually works and carries itself. There is not a single moment in the whole web series that is worth wasting your time. Had the makers studied how the batla encounter was carried out, they could have made this series a lot better, forget how police undertakes operations, had they gone through delhi police twitter account they could have made better sense of how special cell works lol.

Rohit Shetty formula: no need to watch, no new story don't waste your time.

The prevalent inclusion of unnecessary violence and gunplay contributes to a predictable storyline, where those familiar with Bollywood tropes can foresee the progression without viewing the entire series.

On a positive note, commendable performances are delivered by Siddharth, Vivek, Shilpa, and the supporting cast. Despite the actors' commendable efforts, the film falls short in introducing a novel storyline. The recurring theme of a Muslim boy seeking revenge and subsequently being apprehended by Delhi police adds to the lack of narrative freshness. Overall, while the acting stands out, the film's reliance on a well-trodden path leaves one yearning for a more innovative cinematic experience.

Series is dumb as hell & only Neeraj Pandey can pull off such story telling. People who are giving 9 & 10 stars are paid by the production house itself. It's a marketing strategy to make it look like successful series forcefully. Rohit Shetty needs a break & work hard on the script rather than big star cast. Big disappointment from him in recent times. I rather loved his debut movie Zameen which was grounded & had a good script. This is not gripping at all & camera work too is really poor. Plenty of drone shots & shaky camera work makes watching it nauseous. Rohit has forgotten that story comes first then every other thing.

This is probably the worst creation so far by Rohit Shetty. And I say this as a admirer of his other works such as Singham and Golmaal.

What a catastrophic waste of time and talent. This show made Siddhartha Malhotra and Vivek Oberoi look weak bland and boring.

The costumes and props look like they were borrowed from a high school drama team. They couldn't even get the bulletproof jackets correct. The show focussed way too much on macho-ness and bravado of the characters and way too little on storyline, execution and attention to details.

Full of clichés, the show seems to have been written by ChatGpt with a prompt asking it to create a script containing all possible bollywood clichés starting from 1981. All it lacked was a sick mother and an unmarried sister.

There are much better shows available on OTT platforms with much cleverer and mature writing and intriguing plots. The makers of this show need to realize that audience has matured a lot and mediocre action sequence and VFX alone cannot keep them engaged anymore.
