Review of Kaabil

Kaabil (2017)
7/10
Powerful and thought provoking
26 January 2017
Hrithik presents a powerful portrayal of how some parts of society take advantage of blind people. The supporting actress, Yami Gautam, presents a fresh face while Narendra Jha impressed with his acting of the 3 star cop-in-charge - a little different than the usual Bollywood cops. The bad guys are true to usual form. The songs are the usual Bollywood entertainment but nothing to leave any lasting memory. The movie leaves you with a very strong thought about society and will touch your humanity and sense of justice unless of course you are a robot. The end almost descended into the usual Bollywood "dishoom-dishoom" farce but there is a twist to the end. I deducted 1 point for the more than necessary and unreal smiling and jovial faces of both blind actors in the first part of the film. For the last 2 points, the film misses the outstanding and exceptional criteria. It has a certification 15, however I personally feel it should be 18. But that is only my view. Worth watching? Yes.
