Very well executed
... View MoreI have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.
... View MoreI didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
... View MoreThis movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
... View MoreDeewar is my one of the favorite's, the main credit goes to the script writer (Salim- Javed) and of-course legendary Yash Chopra, who is such a fine craftsman. Deewar has no extra ordinary story, its the characters which make this movie as a cult classic. For me deewar is one of those movies which was quite ahead of its time; dealing with the theme of good and evil Yash chopra has done complete justice with it. The scene shot below the bridge is one of the best scene ever shot and again its the characters which should be credited for it and the punch line, Mere Paas Ma Hai. In one of the scenes, Vijay (Amitabh) makes a deal with a builder, after deal is done, builder advises Vijay that he is not good in business as he has purchased at a much higher price. The way Vijay reverts is simply mind blowing, no words can ever express that intensity which vijay intents at that particular moment.Another best part is the love angle between Amitabh and Praveen babhi is not given much of importance, unlike of our tradional cinema. The last scene of the movie, where vijay prays for his Mom is again tremendous and full of energy, he has simply transformed the cliché dialog into one of the most memorable ones; "Aaj Kush to bahut honge tum" Although Vijay (Amitabh) portray's the gray shaded character and Ravi (Shashi Kapoor) plays the honest cop, its vijay which impacts and connects more then Ravi's character, thats why i said it was way ahead of its time.The character of Vijay is based on the real character, Haji Mastan big time smuggler from Mumbai. After watching movies like Deewar, Trishul and Kabhi Kabhi, i always baffles about the current choice of Chopra camp. God Bless them with some Sane ideas.
... View MoreOne of the best movies of Indian Cinema. This is a must see for all Bollywood movies lover. What a performance from Amitabh Bachchan!! I don't have words for it. I doubt anybody could make such a movie in future or anybody could act like Amitabh, God of Indian Cinema.Loosely based on Haji Mastan's life, this movie portrays the life of Vijay from a dockyard worker to an underworld don. Legend is Amitabh Bachchan met Haji Mastan in a race course in Bombay before the shooting of Deewar started. He saw the moist eyes of Haji Mastan and was quite impressed with them. In an interview he said he tried his best to make his eyes look moist to add life to the character. Amazing script by Salim Javed and direction by Yash Chopra.
... View MoreThis movie was made in the same year as Sholay, coincidentally they were both written by Salim Javed. Everything was of the highest from the script right down to the performances. Amitabh was the best, especially in his dying scene at the end. This was Salim Javed's trademark, Amitabh died in Dewaar and Sholay, Sunil Dutt in Shaan, Kamal Hassan in Saagar and Tina in Mr India.Nirupa Roy was fabulous as Shashi Kapoor and Amitabh's mother. The dialogues were simply great, my favourite one is "Mere pass Maa hai". The only downside were the songs, there were only a few hummable tunes. Yash Chopra you should be proud of yourself.
... View MoreNothing could be better and more real depiction of a real life than this movie! Excellent performance of Amitabh which proves that his acting is near real and momentarily you forget that you are still only watching celluloid. Great script encapsulating how the wishes of rags to riches ruin a fine, brave man! I dont remember how many times I have watched this movie, but each time is an experience in itself.Bravo Amit and the rest ofcourse who aided to have him achieve this performance!!
