That was an excellent one.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This is not (Amar Akbar Anthony) part 2, or a remake of it either. In fact (Naseeb) can't be compared to it in the first place. Yes, there is the same winning formula with even more merits. But sorry, it didn't hit the mark that the previous movie did.Back then (Manmohan Desai) was on the top of his game. Here, he made a complicated plot, as usual, with the same went-to-crime deeply-good father, the same variant but brave lost-and-found sons, again love stories for the 3 sons, bad guys (numerous this round), comedy, music, action, a final song where the sons meet, masquerade and dance before beating up the badies, and most of all a celebration of the power of faith, unity and the main 3 religions of India. All of that was clear in the original. Now it's played all over again, with just different names and characters, more actors and money. The thing is, I felt less.The movie is 197 minutes another (Desai) masala epic. Entertaining? Yes, but lighter than (AAA). (Shatrughan Sinha) is the worst third member for (Amitabh Bachchan) and (Rishi Kapoor) heroic league. He's so heavy on screen, see the way he dances to feel the horror. He – of course – has no comic talent. And he was older than his role, being 6 years younger than his father in the movie (Amjad Khan) ! (God forgive Vinod Khanna, the third brother of Bachchan and Kapoor in AAA, who was nominated for the role but couldn't accept it since he took a break from films). The gangster movie within the movie was weak and a bit forced. Yet nothing more pathetic than the melodrama. Watch the character of (Pran)'s sister to have a loud laugh; heck, the respectable masala never treated any character that bad before. The scriptwriter should be ashamed of himself !It tries to look dazzling visually more than dramatically. Shooting abroad, having tons of cameos at the party scene, the sniper sequence (one of the most marvelous ever), and the aflame tower action at the end, were some of the ways. It has sparkling image and vivacious pace. However, it's polished with not much of a soul. I had open eyes, and no teary ones. It exemplifies the astonishing extravaganza more than any effective suffering or well-made melodrama, despite the scene of sacrificing, beside the Christ statue, for the sake of friendship which was the sole moment where this movie had a heart. See, that's why the less lavish (AAA) surpasses.Notice well how most of the movie's songs are being performed through parties or shows, how most of the cameos are for the stars as themselves, celebrating their stardom, and how (Amitabh Bachchan) breaks the fourth wall, talking to us, many times to understand that it's a big ostentatious party of the commercial Indian cinema and all its stars at the 1980s start. And you know what the best part is? You're invited. So for me the grand party scene, where that crowd of stars gather on one screen, is the best of the movie, or rather the movie itself. Before and after that it's pale and hasty repetition of a better original. (John Jani Janardhan) and (Mere Naseeb Mein) are great classics. They are 2 of the reasons why we'll always cherish that era and those movies. While these 2 songs, along with the party scene, get a 10, the movie itself gets a 7. Dear (Desai) used to bedeck his movies with fireworks. This time he made the whole movie out of many flashy fireworks, only.

One of the best film of Amitabh. He is super in it and as far as cast many stars appear in song John Johny janardan. Other cast of the film are hema, Shru,Rishi, Tina, and reena roy. Amit plays the character of a poor waiter in a hotel and then he also wrestles too. Hema is playing character of a model and on a tour to London for shooting when she meets Mr. Sinha he falls for her but hema is beloved of Amit so things goes right wrong because Amit, and Shatru r two friends on other hand the story has Reena Roy liking but its one side love. Rishi also has done good and tina has done good too. Music is lovely and its a masala film that keeps u wake and the music is amazing. To find what movie is u have to check out on DVD.

This is a movie that is best seen for people who want entertainment. The plotline is average (standard for a Hindi action blockbuster), but the action scenes are definitely novel ones for Hindi movies. I have not seen them repeated elsewhere in Hindi cinema. If you are a fan of martial arts or Western action movies though, you might recognize the elements.It is the actors and the music that are the real backbone of the movie. Unfortunately, the camerawork shows you how they have aged and reveals any excessive makeup. Amitabh is in classic form, and Rishi Kapoor shows you why he deserves the title of "The Dancing Kapoor", esp. in the final song sequence "Rang Jamake". This is an excellent song sequence and will remind you of the final song sequence in "Amar, Akbar, Anthony".The music is wonderful, not too much of it and not bizarre in execution on screen. I had not heard these songs in over 10 years, and they still sound very good.An unusual aspect of this movie is there is very little in the way of romantic scenes. Hema Malini has the role of a woman who is not helpless.Strong-willed is one thing, but ability to defend yourself physically is an added dimension, a welcome one. There is also nothing in the way of the extended woman-abuse (rape, slapping, beating, etc.) scenes you see in Hindi movies. Heck, even the violence is toned down. So this film is probably more suitable for family viewing.Overall, I would say a 7 out of 10. ("Amar, Akbar, Anthony" by comparison would be an 8.5 out of 10, to give you an idea.)

This film is a gem. It has to certainly be an all time classic for people of my generation who grew up in the 70's and 80's. To those who live in England, it is of special significance as it was shown on Channel 4 a few times in the mid and late eighties.I cannot begin to describe the story as it is quite complex. It basically involves a lottery ticket and how it changes three friends. The story continues into a heroes versus villains struggle and ends, as usual, with good winning. However, just listen to the cast list. Amitabh Bachchan, Rishi Kapoor and Shatrughan Sinha are our main three heroes. Kimi Katkar, Reena Roy and Hema Malini are our heroines. "Good guys" include Pran and Amjad Khan. Villains include Kader Khan, Shakti Kapoor, Prem Chopra, and of course Amrish Puri in a commanding performance as "Don." As if the film were short of film stars, there is an EXCELLENT film sequence for the song "John Jani Janardan" (a classic for the age). It involves various actors and actresses in guest appearances, including Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor, Rajesh Khanna, Dharmendra, Simi and many many others.Other songs in the film are also extremely memorable. In particular, the final picturization "Rang Jamake Jayenge" is an instant classic.What can I tell you about this film if you have not already seen it? It is a classic. Apart from all the above, Amitabh is on TOP form. This film is unprecedented in the number of top stars that have appeared in it. Although the story is not novel, it works. Songs are fantastic. If you haven't seen it yet, make it a priority. If you have, it's time to watch it again...
