Kabir

This movie is a giant leap for both dev and rukmini. To keep the movie going, there are several twists and turns that are really interesting. It focus on a important subject. However, the abrupt characterization is a weak point. Dev looked a bit bulky and needs to mature more in the acting section, so is rukmini. However, the violent scenes could have been trimmed and story is quite slow in first half. The typical depiction of Muslim slums is again a weak point. The end credits ruined it all!!! The songs were good but scenes such as the ajaan are irrelevant as well as offensive. Overall, thought provoking and decent one time watch.

Some people may tell the film bad, because this film is not for ordinary indian audience. It is one of the best thriller, and the twist will blown you up for sure. The actress is the main hero of the film. Dev have improved a lot in his acting skills for this film. It was really impressive that this type of film was made in bengal.

Listen, if u "are" a big fan of Bengali movies, den this might not b the one for you.. this is new.. this is a change that was needed. This was a break that was needed from the conventional Bengali films tht having been making news for glamour, absurd action, high makeup songs.. Yes if u compare it with Hollywood or evn few actually good movies in Bollywood, this might still not finish the race.. but having said that, its refreshing, it's unlikely the typical Bengali cinema.. and thy seem to hv chosen the content perfectly well... The actress, somehow still needs to work on her skills as her screen presence seemed less captivating, whereas it shud hv been much more.. But overall yes, not a great movie , may b a 7 star.. but 2 additional stars for having the vision to change the dimension of Bengali cinema.. definitely worth a watch..

Storyline is very well connected with the real events. Most cinematography is done in train which has to be praised. Rukmini and Dev has acted very well. It's an eye opener for people who have prejudice about Dev's Acting Capabilities.

Based on true facts during the Mumbai Blasts in India, the makers has been successful in creating a taut, thrilling and gritty narrative. The screenplay evoked reaction from the audience and their lies its beauty. If the start was slow, as it proceeded, the happenings on screen got racier and fast paced leading to its climax. A crescendo. The performances from its actors were adequate to good. The Director was in command and the music used in the background added to its flow. Cinematography was top notch. Verdict: Recommeded to watch on the big screen. Rating: 3.5 / 5 Language no bar, this is about humanity.
