Mumbai Saga

The same old story of a mumbai gangster vs a Dubai gangster. The acting is not bad in the movie but there is nothing new in terms of underworld.

Why the director cast so many actors when he doesn't want to give enough screen time to them?. From start till end you will feel like that you are watching Shootout at Wadala 2.0. Same story, same rise and fall of a gangster, same type of encounter by police. In this movie also, John becomes a dreaded gangster because someone tried to kill his brother.

Till Interval, you will only see John Abraham and Rohit Roy. The only good reason to watch this movie is Emraan Hashmi as 'Inspector Vijay Savarkar'. Talking about the performances, John and Emraan are phenomenal is there respective roles. But, Mahesh Manrejakar as "Bhau" is not up to the mark.

If you want a typical Bollywood masala movie with punchy dialogues and some great action stuff, then you can definitely go for this. But, that song of Yo Yo Honey Singh is a scrap.

Generic Premise. Same old Mumbai Gangster movie that we have watched a million times before. The script is not coherent and the edits are scrappy. The acting from John is a bit over the top. Prateik Babbar is ok and has performed decently but the hairstyle and look chosen for him makes him look funny. . Rohit Roy does a brilliant job with his expressions but the hairstyle, make up and costumes make him look like a buffoon. Gone is the era for such gangster movies.

Nice starcast, all have done justice to their role.

Superb dialogues.

Motive is understood as the reason or story behind the commission of an offence. Amartya (John Abraham) meets Murali (Suneil Shetty) only to learn the way to rule Mumbai. The meeting and subsequent killings clarify what Amartya's motive is, also it artistically portrays how regional gangsters work by forming the intention to kill (mens rea) at the spur of the moment.

The film takes an adrenaline rushing turn, when Inspector Vijay Savarkar (Emraan Hashmi) interferes to accost Amartya only as per a diktat- clearly portraying the constant rustle between duties and orders. Finally, the juxtaposing of illegality and government power is sincerely weaved towards the end of the film.
