Dear @Indicine, please post my review!
Bang Bang Review: Hrithik Roshan in Wholesome Entertainment Package
It is Hrithik all over. It is Hrithik in wholesome entertainment package. It is too awesome that you will lose your control and yourself while watching the movie!!! You will wonder what you are doing in the theater! Eventually, it seems that he has learnt to eat with his own spoon without help of papa.
He performs never-seen-before daredevil stunts with the help of Andy whose Arm is Strong. He romances like no one else on this earth. He has done actions excellently and shivered not once but four times.
It starts off with a scene of colonel Nanda (played by Jimmy Shergill) going to meet the international criminal Omar Zafar (played by Danny) in the interpol’s highly secured custody in London. There, in the lock-up itself, Omar Zafar and his goons (that broke into the custody out of nowhere) killed Colonel Nanda. Then, Omar Zafar plans to rob Kohinooor Diamond using an Indian thief to deteriorate the G-G Ties between UK Govt and Indian Govt. So, the robbery of the Kohinoor Diamond surfaced. The thief happens none other than Krishh Mehra (now name changed to Rajveer) is escaping the jadoo land after being accused of BO Manipulation.
He bangs his entry showcasing his double thumbs and the diamond he had robbed earlier. The goons of the Omar Zafar and ISS Agents were after him for the diamond. During the Luka Chupi Game among them, he happens to meet Harleen Sahani through mistaken identity. Actually, she is out on date at a restaurant to meet the person called Vickie whom she had met via a dating website called Trueluv.com. Now, I am sure Rajveer’s many kid fans wannabe teens like nipun kumar, L’ll Ricky Bahl and 60+ Bachelor Babaji will visit the site to find their soul mate.
The story goes on and at the end, we come to know that Rajveer is a ISS agent and the robbery of the diamond was nothing but a hoax and media propaganda set up to trap the international criminal Omar Zafar. So, the Diamond was never robbed and is safe in its place.
Now the question is the whole set up was created to trap international Wanted Criminal Omar Zafar. But how and why Omar Zafar has become an international criminal wanted by interpol? Why? Maybe because of his name! So, Omar Zafar should have instead said “my name is zafar and I am not a terrorist.” Kidding!!! No criminal background story of Omar Zafar was given. So, I should call the plot of the film is very shallow. It leaves you in a bad taste.
Since it is a remake of the Knight and Day, its comparison with Knight and Day is unavoidable. They have re-written the screenplay and replaced the battery (innovated by a student in original knight and day) with the story of Kohinoor. But Hrithik taught the Hollywood actors how to make those scenes look better when once shivers.
There are a few epic shivering scenes:
1) when Hrithik jumps over a car with a motorbike when Harleen was being abducted by ISS agent for the first time from her office (i.e. Bank of Shimla) [during this chase scene, our very nipun kumar was spotted on a bus. He was surprised to see his icon and called out his mommy to show her his hero. But by then, the hero had disappeared. Poor soul Nipun, maa ko dikaa nahin paya par he saved his icon by warning him from the danger of the electric shocks occurring in the lamp posts.]
2) when he points his gun at harleen at a Pizza Hut,
3) when he lets Omar Zafar know that the killed Colonel Nanda was his brother and
4) in the climax scene before killing Omar Zafar.
No matter what, Hrithik has taught Tom Cruise how to act, perform actions and romance. Tom Cruise will die of shame once he watches Bang Bang. Especially, the action scenes in the sea are amazing. Hence because they (Rajveer and Harleen) were able to travel from an island of Mauritius to the Prague city of Czech Republic with Water-Ski tied to a Sea-Plane.
Hrithik has put Dolphin Species into shame by jumping out of water using water-ski in an extra ordinary manner. Now, it has been learnt that the leaders of the Dolphin Species have summoned all the Dolphins in the seas and oceans for a meeting to find out who the hell is this new and extraordinary invader to their region and pride. Rumors have been that the Dolphins will invite Rajveer to teach them how to jump and perform water stunts better using water-ski.
Coming to the dance movie in the movie, they were mindblowing. MJ, wherever the hell or heaven he is, will be regretting why he did so much hard work in innovating dance steps. Because when one can fool audiences and earn money from the so-called dances that have nothing to do but swaying from side to side, jumping like deers and behaving children with extreme hyperactivity disorder. Besides, MJ will also cry for the fact that some people are raping his iconic dance steps calling them they have done in their own styles. All in all, no matter what, Hrithik rocks big time when hes dance. Because he is the best!
Yes, our dear and gorgeous Katrina Kaifji excels. Cameron Diaz will quit acting if she happens to watch the Hindi version of Bang Bang. Cameron Diaz needs to learn how and where to give expressions. If necessary, over-expressions, over-acting. Billiji was looking extraordinary whenever she tries to give an expression like teenager!
Hollywood needs to learn from Bang Bang makers how to make a better movie with the lower budget. James Mangold needs to learn direction from Siddarth Anand, the knowledge house of direction. Expressionless Cameron Diaz needs to learn how to give expressions from our dear class actress Billi ji.
Having said, Bang Bang is set to earn Moolahs at Box Office. All the big blue dressed up jaadoo fans i.e. children that are still sleeping with jaadoo toy beside them will be flocking into the theatres. So, naturally, they can’t go alone since they are underage and their guardians must accompany. You are going to see amazing numbers of footfalls in theatres. Go and watch Bang Bang if you want to see Hrithik scoring all rounds. Else, skip it and watch Hindi Dubbed Version of Knight and Day.
My rating of Bang Bang:
Stunts and Actions: 4/5*****
Signature Shivering: 5/5*****
Cinematography: 3.5/5*****
Romance: 3/5*****
Drama: 2/5*****
Comedy: 1.5/5*****
Dialogue Deliveries: 1/5*****
Average Rating: 4/5*****
3 Extra Stars for Putting Dolphin Species and Tom Cruise into Shame and teaching Hollywood how to make better movies with lower budget.
So, my overall rating for Bang Bang: 7/5*****
I have liked the film in terms of actions, stunts and romance to an extent. But there should be more comedy, emotions and more contents!……
Will, everyone is just saying that hrithik is fabulous in his role, only exception is @hrithik…..Will in my opinion he is never brilliant but very impressive. i still think his performance in guzaarish, kmg, ja, d2, agneepath, lakshya, knph are better Performances but he is very much impressive. Though i have not watched fizza, so cant say anything but will watch it in few days…
Will, iam not that much over-confindent in my views….i respect what overall rating from audience and critics is but looks like his performance is overrated by audience though not that much by critics, i think….
PS. iam not hater, admirer….this was just my honest view.thanks!
@indicine:Plz give update about how bang bang is fairing at the noon and evening shows!!!
Dear so called critics
I think its time for a change.i think such kind of movie should be supported.its never seen india.i mustbsay people ho to cinema to enjoy themselves.if audience enjly themselves so hw come a movieget poor resilt from u.why the khans are always supported.chennai express was not extra n get positive review.dabanggs was full of crap(tiger was better i admit) and talaash was a nonsence illogical n get positive reviews.a movie like delly belly get positive…its full of shit.i truely believe that after gun down a film like gun masti…it was a slap in the face face of critics as the movie goes an enter the looc club.to receive good reviews from critics you shold notbe a wholesome entertainer unless its a khan movie.second u should be a dark movie.
Katrina kaif..
I am not a katrina fan but this is another slap for critics cz they say the actress cant act but gives blockbuster after blockbuster.
First of all, it is an official remake of Knight & Day, so basic theme of the film is quite same, but they have twisted the script, it’s not scene to scene similar to Knight & Day, in fact only few scenes have been borrowed from Knight & Day like beach scene, sleeping drugs, and some dialogues. I found it about 70 % different than Knight & Day, despite of being an official remake.
Coming to Bang Bang, it is a story of Rajveer, who’s charming yet a mysterious man, who steals a historic and very expensive diamond, and Harleen who’s a simple girl, who’s life is not exciting at all according to his Daadi. So, to make her life exciting she decides to date a guy who she hasn’t even seen via a dating site. That’s where she meets Rajveer unexpectedly. There’s a roller coaster ride from there on. From firing to high octane chases to death defying stunts.
Throughout the film Rajveer’s true identity and motto/mission is kept as a secret and even Harleen finds it tough whether to trust him or not.
This will obviously not sound as a classic story, but suitable enough for an action flick.
Throughout the film, you will ask questions like, how did Rajveer steel the diamond from a tight security? What is his true identity? Why is he doing all those things? You will get all the answers towards the end, when they surprise you, I wouldn’t spoil it for you guys, watch it on theaters.
Coming to the performances, Hrithik is heart and sole of the film. He literally carries this film on his shoulders. He was perfect in his charming yet mysterious character. His expressions were perfect even during performing high octane, death defying actions. He was also at peak of his fitness.
Katrina is not known for her acting skills, and she was strictly average as expected. But, she looked very beautiful. But hey, even Hollywood actions flicks use leading actress as eye candy.
Rest of the characters don’t have big of a screen time to leave any lasting impact, most of the time was given to leading pair and action sequences. So, some people may not complain. I would have still liked to see more of the antagonist though. With that being said, all of them were pretty good in their respective limited appearances, including Jimmy Shergill in film’s opening scene, which set the tempo high for the film.
Cinematography was superb, they covered many of beautiful locations in the world.
Music was rocking as well. It was a treat to watch Tu Meri, Meherbaan, Bang Bang Title Track on big screen, although Uff could have been avoided. It did nothing good for the film unlike other songs.
Direction and screenplay were average, they tried to paint it by actions scenes which might have even worked with many audience. It wasn’t that bad considering its an action film, could have been better though.
The main USP of t he film, apart from Hrithik, were definitely the action scenes shown in it. It has almost everything you could ask in an action film. From hand-to-hand combat to guns, rifles, from car chases (including Formula 1 car) to flyboarding scene (first time ever in Holly/Bollywood), from jet skies to jet plance. It has everything. Director has put almost everything in this film to make it feel like a big budget action film. If you love action movies, then it’s a must watch for you.
With that being said, yes it is not perfect, it has some minor loopholes just like almost all the big films. Director tried to make it easy for Rajveer in terms of environment around him. He could have made it little more demanding and difficult for him like Die Hard 1. But, I guess that would be too much to ask from an Indian action film, which is supposed to be more cool and sleek than serious.
POSITIVES –
1. Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2 type of role
2. Action scenes (by far best for any Bollywood film, they pushed all the barriers)
3. Cinematography
4. Music, choreography
5. Chemistry between leading pair (comedy, romance, actions)
6. Adrenaline rush and surprise in climax
NEGATIVES –
1. Minor loopholes
2. Screenplay could have been better
3. Less screen time for main antagonist.
Rating – It depends on how you want to see it. If you want to see it as an action film and a film which provides you entertainment like Dhoom 3, Kick etc, then it does not deserve less than 4 stars, since Dhoom 3 and Kick both got 4 stars on Indicine, and action sequences are much better in Bang Bang (must watch for action movie lovers). And if you want to see content and a long lasting story, then I suggest you to watch Haider instead. It is a fast paced film, with tonnes of innovative actions consist of death defying stunts and high octane chases, high on chemistry between leading pair consist of comedy, romance and emotions. These type of films usually don’t excite critics. I have reviewed it as an audience, not critic. Reviews should be done according to the genre of the film. We can’t expect content like Queen, Wasseypur, Lunchbox, Guzaarish, Swadesh, etc from an action film. That’s what I have learnt from Indicine.
That’s why I’m surprised by Indicine’s review and rating. They used to think differently from other reviewers who thrash commercial films no matter what. Like, in case of many past blockbusters, they (Indicine) rated them 4 on the basis of entertainment value, not direction or screenplay. Don’t know why they were so critical this time with this review. My friends and I liked it for action sequences, its IMDb rating is also good so far. Not one of Hrithik’s best, but an entertaining action flick.
Kya negative votes yaar!! even critics have not praised him that much as compared to audience! So i have the right

Ho-hum! Though I liked it for Hrithik, it was a huge disappointment. Poor dialogues, illogical story, poor direction.
@ Indicine: why are you not posting all good reviews about bang bang …i personally submitted 4-5 good reviews that bang bang has got apart from the one you have posted.
Movie has got mixed reports and has got rock solid WOM reviews…it is getting good competition from Haider which was not expected earlier…
All in all the booking parameters in book my show says that Bang Bang and Haider are getting equal appreciation from audiences…
@Rohit: brilliant review. I am getting a feeling that indicine has been paid.
Very sad to see media and critics being so harsh to hrithik’s bang bang…since Khans are in top form now,they have completely dominated the media..ZOOM channel is always against hrithik,koimoi is a big HR hater,they gave 2 to k3 citing the plagiarism but ignored it completely while reviewing D3 n Ek villain.
Akshay kumar’s Holiday got mediocre reviews all over..inspite of that it got the love of public and emerged a hit despite a below avg opening…
@anand, awesome review……ROFL.
@nipun, indicine had been paid too while they showed 244 fig for k3. This time indicine charged 244rupees to rate BB negative.
KATRINA KAIF LOOKED VERY STUNNING IN THE MOVIE. BUT HRITIK WAS ALSO NOT TOO BAD.
