Review of Bang Bang

Bang Bang (I) (2014)
7/10
Justified Bollywood version of Hollywood's Knight and Day
4 October 2014
Visual treat in terms of action. Unlike Bollywood's recent gravity defying action - this movie takes it to logical action sequences. Bunch of songs - could have been eliminated. But if you love "Bollywood songs visually", all the songs are a visual treat - in terms of choreography, vibrant lighting and aesthetics and catchy tunes. Being the official remake of Knight and Day, the screenplay is the same - with the "Bollywood touch". Lead Actor Hrithik Roshan does justice to the character sketch. The film showcases some amazing visuals traveling across various countries showing off colorful scenery. The film is just above average just because of the edit. Could have eliminated certain sequences, story angles that don't add anything to the primary plot. This instead sets a mixed pace - 70% just about right taking action sequences into account and 30% unwanted screenplay that slows down the pace - "nothingness". But overall in the recent grand/shot across various locations of the world the film helps you give the "rush" in many portions. Overall, way better than average Bollywood films - but not exceptionally the best! Good watch...
