Sarkar ( Hindi )

I liked most of the RGV's movies due to his unique taking style, and realistic feel. His movies make you feel as if you are watching things that happen around you. The stories  and genres that he selects also interests me so much, especially thrillers and horrors movies. Those are my favorite genres. I was in school when his debut film shiva got released, so I didn't realize why many college students were madly watching that movie. I still recall, people were standing before the tv show-rooms to watch this movie when it did telecast in local cable. I wish I would be in some college when it released so I would have enjoyed the mania along with many other students.

Anyway, from to shiva to his latest movie, his basic movie making style is not changed. Now  days, many changes happened in the way films made. One major problem in RGV' films is they are very slow in narration. Ironically, in the begging days, his movies are brand names for fast action and screen play but not any more.

Most of his movies in Bollywood got dubbed in Telugu, which is my native language, so I watched all of them. But as for as I know Sarkar is not released in Telugu, so I didn't watch this movie. Recently I got a chance to watch it through Netflix.

After watching the whole movie, first thing that I felt, do they want 2 hours to make this movie that to without any songs. If the same movie could be made with any of the present generation directors, then this could be made in 1 hour or less than that.

The movie is good (not extra ordinary). However, the story is simple, and each shot is made with fewer dialogues and more expressions. Some times I feel, common Amitabh ji, say something don't look at him like that.

Amitabh action is top notch. Other actors also did a good job. One good thing about RGV is, being a Telugu guy, he had introduced many Telugu actors in Bollywood.   The funny thing is, though Kota is from Telugu, he has been portrayed as Tamil tambi in this movie. That shows that south means for Bollywood is only Tamilnadu and Madaras.

Even though, the movie is very serious in nature, RGV could have added 1 or 2 songs. Lack of songs is good for few movies, but not for this movie. Back ground music is nice.

There are few interesting conflicts in the movie, which I feel are the main reasons to make this film watchable. The twist in the climax is good; otherwise the whole film feels dry.

Overall movie is decent to watch, but it could be really good if those dragging scenes are made it quicker. Otherwise most of the times it feels slow and dragged.

My rating for this movie is 7 out of 10.
