Christian bale has a reputation of doing variety of roles with sheer genius. But this one is a blunder. It starts of well, knotting your expectations higher, ultimately falling into a boring, clichéd drama. It could have been a watchable movie if the screenplay had been better but all you see is people mindlessly walking for 30 minutes being followed in the last few minutes.

Direction itself is poor so howsoever Moses has gulped down the character it goes in vain. It's a boring saga of two brothers turning into rivals. Other actors have done their part pretty well but the direction and the screenplay are the biggest loopholes. Christian bale fans will be highly disappointed

Shahid kapoor has hit the bull's eye this time with haider. The ease with which he unveils the character of Hamlet on screen needs an OUT- standing ovation. He has exploited all his talent in the movie and has left no stone unturned. The other eye catching character is the protagonist's mother and I guess no one could have dine it better than Tabu. She has been a brilliant actress and again proves her mettle here. Kay Kay menon and Irrfan Khan are as always superb. Shraddha kapoor is sweet but does not have much to do. Overall, to go or not to go is not a question at all. It's a must watch and undoubtedly the best movie of year 2014 till now.
