Flipping through that many critical scrutinies, I was preparing myself for nothing but another disappointment. Following my two hours spent with this execution, now I can tell with much certainty that my presumption was only half right.
To start with; the set-up, the all-around ambiance is relatively straightforward and explicit with their motivations and purposes. The creators knew what they needed to accomplish, and they successfully did so up until the third act's commencement. Unfortunately for them, thereupon, everything had gone downhill.
The primary justification for its eventual downfall is directly correlated to the Script's inability to uphold the rhythm, the momentum it was building up to, until the finale begins to take place. Just goes to show, how much important it is to wrap up on a decisive note. The closure is as crucial as the initiation!
Speaking of performances, those are nice. Nothing out of the ordinary, but each member of the cast did their job with utmost commitment and sincerity. Amongst them, needless to say; Mr. Bacchan stands out the most and on the other end, Emraan Hashmi again showcases his capability to be able to play all kinds of personalities.
At the end of the day, their goals might have been naive, unearthing the loopholes of our country's judiciary or the protocols themselves; but the way all that has been dealt with, it just doesn't quite hit the mark. Don't get me wrong, the underlying subtext holds grave significance and mustn't be disregarded but the timing wasn't relevant nor the strategy the film had seemingly taken in regards to that particular aspect.
