User Review

Great

Rating: 10/10


A masterpiece indeed! It is very easily the best film Amitabh has acted
ever. Even though the music score is not up to the mark, one gets to
watch Amitabh's sterling performance as the "angry young man" of
Bollywood. The background score adds to the intensity of the film. Its
well worth giving 10+. The best scene in the film would be the one
where Amitabh goes to the slums to save his sister Neelam. The
dialogues in the entire film are just awesome. Tinu Anand and Rohini
Hattangadi have also given a memorable performance in the film. The
songs are very avoidable and spoil the tempo of the movie. But the best
part of the film would undoubtedly be AMITABH. He is indeed the best
actor of the millennium.
