Zanjeer

Just when you thought that there is some good left in the world, the movie Zanjeer punches you hard and brings you face to face with the disastrous disaster of Hindi Cinema. Pushed by circumstances ,in my case an exam of General Pharmacology, one usually goes to a place faraway and happy, also dark, and so did I. My friends and I, we ended up in a theatre. Wasn't zero cars in the parking, or no people in the vicinity or the lifelessness of the Theatre enough to scare us off? Obviously Not.

One ticket worth 130 Rupees, and we barged into a hall full of nothing but an ogre-face sprawled all over the large screen. That was the defining moment when we knew that the coming 3 hours of our lives were in vague danger, but being a Desi breed we didn't turn back. 130 Rupees ka sawal tha.

The initial shock of an atrociously hideous protagonist or an awfully dumb Priyanka Chopra was nothing. There was so much more they had in store for the scanty audience.

A hag-faced Sanjay Dutt who insisted on wearing nothing but colours that could sore your eyes for a century, a nauseating woman named Mona, a dark and gross villain with massive one-liner-failures, a dizzy sound- track, a horrific and passé story-line, a dance step that looked pretty much like an epileptic seizure, a 150-minutes-of-my-life-never-coming- back later here I am thanking the almighty that I am alive. Barely.

Only one bearable ending could've come out of this traumatic movie, if that mutant-lips-cop shot himself in the end, and the screen splattered with his pathetic blood. Or not. No way on Earth can this be a better movie, because this is it, the worst movie I have watched in my lifetime. I am scarred for life. Rating this movie in stars? I wouldn't rate this in bullshits.

well Zanjeer came with a lots of hype but received pale comments.coming to the story vijay khanna is a man of courage and will filled with sincerity makes his 23rd transfer in his five years from Hyderabad to Mumbai faces troubles,while Priyanka chopra was a n.r.i who visits Mumbai for her friend's marriage and unfortunately sees a murder.hence she meets Vijay and situations tends her to become a witness and so locks up here without returning to the u.s.Vijay starts the case chasing it up to prakashraj and the rest you have to watch it in the theater.despite the trailers and promos the movie went with a poor slow screenplay making it bore.in his rivalry with the villain every critic catches the point that hero is out of his laws and process till his victory then how can the movie justify only the director should know!. the one and only plus point is ramcharan's acting and so prakashraj's.sorry that this Telugu mega power star made his Bollywood debut as unmemorable.besides all the other crafts went disturbed.songs were good but non of the song was full in the movie.it was a perfect script and direction failure maybe running short of ideas.there is no perfect connections and logic's between the scenes and characters respectively.as there is no scope for comedy the viewers who expect it should return homes very disappointed.we should wait and see how much this movie can run for the box office collections.

After seeing this movie I don't get it why such good actors and veterans such as Sanjay Dutt would do this movie seriously whatever the reason maybe it was a waste of their time. The newbie actor should have been given a much better intro than this movie. The writer whatever he wrote wasn't bad enough that the director took the remains of the lameness and sealed up the movie. The direction was very amateur remaking of a classic movie I think that the original makers of the movie must have just fainted.

I need to ask the director myself that in the movie where Ram Charan first encounters with Sanjay Dutt without no reason Ram goes to Sanjay's place and starts fighting like did he have some sort of a preminition or what???? I mean what was that??? that's not direction that a huge flaw. There are many scenes that don't just add up and the whole movie was just a very waste of time. Two item songs were provided which obviously were thought that they will keep the ball rolling but they failed pathetically as for even an item song to go along the story and direction need to support the whole movie.

The rest best of luck to the new actor Ram as you really need to make sure and pick your scripts by really getting into character I know I don't need to teach your acting but this is just a tip but for the director you need to still go through some more direction courses.

After super success of Agnipath remake and failure of Himmatwala it is the turn of Zanjeer to continue this remake culture.To execute the original same plot in modern style is not at all easy.Himmatwala had entered its name in worst remake record books and Zanjeer too makes an attempt to reach at par with Himmatwala but fails due to some entertainment quotient.Only few entertaining scenes manage to save it from sheer embarrassment.

To talk of the performances Ram charan has strong hold on the screen but you won't say wow after watching him till the end..Prakash raj is good but monotonous as always..Priyanka and Sanjay dutt are just fine..Apoorva lakhia's direction and screenplay is commendable but weak script, and bad execution overshadow it.

All in all a poor remake with performances far below expectations.Its better to wait and watch Zanjeer on TV than wasting your precious money in multiplexes.

I rate it 4 out of 10

It's clear that Bollywood wants to make Quick Money by Making Remakes . They Practically Screwed this Remake. I believe that Ram Charan is a Great Actor. He tried but debuting in a Bollywood movie which is a remake of a classic is stupid. Priyanka Chopra is a great actress we saw her in Barfi but does she have to shed clothes and be an arm candy in the movie? Why? Prakash Raj is Stereo-typed. Mahie Gill must watch her Previous movies and learn acting.

The Only Good thing in the Movie is Sanjay Dutt. He does a Fab job but sadly his Screen time isn't that much which is BAD!!

The Story is hammed. the Direct by Apoorva Lakhia is below average. the Music isn't great.

The action is good.

Overall, A Below Average fare.
