The Ghazi Attack (2017)
Builds up good but ends up being over-dramatised. Can be considered a one-time watch for the portrayal of an unsung pivotal incident just before the I971 Indo-Pak war
You don't get bored any time. You can enjoy more if you don't know the actual story. The movie builds up good till interval and runs parallel to history, but towards the later half, in process of adding thrill to the original story, the depiction becomes a bit unrealistic and hard to digest and ends up being over-dramatised! Nevertheless, the cast is great. KK Menon is once again phenomenal. Tapsee takes mannequin challenge into the movie. Rana plays fine. Conclusively, the movie can be called a one-time watch for the sake of portraying the pivotal mission triggering 1971 war.
Rangoon (2017)
Flaccid direction and feeble script
The movie revolves all around the love-triangle amongst Rusi, Miss Julia and Jamaadaar (Nawab Malik). Its like the title of the film is just used to make the plot sound heavy but actually the plot is found weak, which would've been much better if more of the unsung history of Rangoon was portrayed in the film. Full marks to Kangana for doing justice to the key role she plays in the movie, but one less for saying 'Bloody Hell' so many times, and a bonus for looking nevermore sexy on screen while playing the glamorous actress Miss Julia. Both of Shahid's and Saif's role are written to be auxiliary, therefore, they don't get a chance to be impressive. Overall, Rangoon fails to live up to the expectations that Vishal Bharadwaj - Shahid duo has set for us.
