Code Name: Tiranga

Once again the filmmaker of this action based film (as has been the case with many many Indian movies in the recent past)continued to defy conventional wisdom/basic sensible logic and continued to have the hero/heroine defying near fatal injuries and somehow continue with their daredevilry in an unaffected manner thus marring a decent storyline. When movies such as VIKRAM(which followed the same senseless formula ) turn out to be superduper hits this encourages the filmmaker to churn out more illogical garbage. Unfortunately the Indian audiences lap up this rubbish like they do with the absolute trash made with Salman Khan,ShahRukh Khan and now Aamir Khan. All in all an opportunity to convert a decent plot into a decent film has gone awry!

4/10.

This movie is another reason, which is adding to the known mystery as why Bollywood movies aren't working any more.

Same old repeated stuff, same old movies based on one stuck up particular mind set.

Lately, if you write a review on any movie except for Bollywood it's immediately uploaded, whereas and i am sure this one too, will be reviewed in order to see if the review is worth.

The down side to it, the movie is not even worth watching, as it so loosely made, though some areas well thought off, especially the actress strong attempt of speaking foreign languages, but then again like i said, there is a particular mind frame with Bollywood and they will always consider everyone associated to be the same. For instance, the wedding scene shown they don't dress up at all like that, anywhere in the world except for Bollywood movies.

Basic lesson for any spy, no facial expressions, but through out the movie Parineeti Chopra was having it the most. The weakest point. Though it appears she work hard for the movie, but all in all the movie is complete waste of time, meaningless and having nothing to offer.

Love Angle, Action Scenes More Action Scenes Simple and Average Plot(Storyline)

Makers tried to make Ek tha Tiger & Baby kinda things but couldn't succeed, Hard Luck

Both Lead Actors Chemistry is Good.

The Worst Part About the Movie is The Length and Pace. Story is predictable.

Not thrilling, Movie Show Just A Part of Raw Agent Life how they managed all the things when they get too attached to personal things.

But I can say that well tried makers atleast we get to know about Hardy Sandhu Acting Skills, - Appreciable.

I would like to give 2 Stars, that's it.

Somewhere it was reminding me of Bard of Blood Web Series.

Review of Code Name - Tiranga by itsbymayank (#CodeNameTiranga)

What do you expect from a filmmaker in an era of films with a realistic touch? A sensible, easily digestible screenplay with a touch of reality in actions, of course. But it's not the case here. The female protagonist, who is wincing with pain a little earlier owing to a bullet wound in the soft flesh of her stomach and is not even able to move properly, gets suddenly fit and agile to combat a gang of terrorists and even rides a motorcycle. Only a filmaker who has been smoking weed all day can think of such supernatural transformation of his film characters.

It is a loose loose loose screenplay with very little brain applied while writing it. Parineeti looks unconvincing as a RAAW agent and her act is superficial at times. Harrdy Sandhu plays his role well, and so do Rajit Kapoor, Sharad Kelkar and Dibyendu.

The compositions and music is below average. The director could have used the great locations in Turkey to a better effect, had he thought of working hard on the music part.

Stop making spy thrillers when you cant introduce anything novel in it, alteast in story or execution. CNT is a very routine spy thriller that you have seen in hundreds of films of this genre coming from Bollywood.

They tried to infuse some romantic angle as well to the film but it is so poorly established that it has no juice in it to make you feel for the two love birds. Not every spy thriller with romance can equal Alia Bhatt's Raazi which i feel did a way better job in this genre. CNT has shades of Raazi and even some ETT vibes but as i said , does not have a personality of its own. The sequence of Mast Kalandar is also very routine seen before in D-Day.

The climax is straight up copied from Force 2 and it is extremely underwhelming. Whoever thought of including a deshbhakti BGM while the climax FPP fight unfolds needs to think again next time. You see Force 2 's climax, the rock BGM made the fight sequences look adrenaline pumping and exciting. Dont just include deshbhakti songs wherever you feel like.

The action scenes are good thats why i give the film some points although none of the action scenes are "never seen before". There is also one twist towards the end which also was good but its not anything smart or something you havent seen before.

If you see this film, you will realize how good Alia Bhatt was in Raazi as she beautifully shouldered the film all by herself. Parineeti is no Alia Bhatt and though she tries hard, she leaves no impact. Sharad Kelkar is a terrorist and we are forced to believe that because the film says so without showing any proof. Others are decent. Harry Sandhu is totally wasted as he has absolutely nothing to contribute in the entire story.

The love story was never needed. It didnt add anything to the main plot. You dont feel for the love birds at all.

Overall, a very ordinary spy thriller that doesnt have its own characteristics but rather inherits them from other successful hindi films. If interested still, watch it on OTT .
