Best movie ever!

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Special 26, also known as Special Chabbis, is a 2013 Indian heist crime thriller film directed by Neeraj Pandey. It stars Akshay Kumar in the lead protagonist role with Manoj Bajpayee, Anupam Kher, Kajal Aggarwal, Jimmy Shergill and Divya Dutta in supporting roles. The film is inspired by the 1987 Opera House heist where a group posing as Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) officers executed an income tax raid on the jeweler in Mumbai. Special 26 released on February 5, 2013 to widespread critical acclaim and was regarded as one of the best films of 2013. Now we move to social engagement.

One of the most entertaining films ever and amongst those that I have recommended to every person who watches Bollywood films. It has got tremendous pace and there is never a dull moment throughout it. The most praise though should be reserved for its out of the world, mind-blowing, amazingly brilliant ending. It is amongst my all-time favourite films.A special mention has to be reserved for Manoj Bajpai. That guy is beyond words and has that amazing ability to make a film look like absolute reality just with his facial expression alone. Very under- rated sadly, but I can't think of a film in which his performance hasn't added to it. The way he stands there at the end and laughs and claps, I can't imagine anyone else being able to pull it off better than him. The reason behind myself typing out this review is different though. It is to explain the reason behind my rating of the film missing out on one whole star. It might not be big deal but it is for me given my history of being too generous and giving 10 out of 10 to many films. The reason here is the guy shown in it who stuttered throughout in his scenes. No, I am not against the role per se, what annoyed me instead was that it was approached in a way of fun. It gave the impression of his disability being mocked in the film. Maybe it's just me and that the film-maker might not have intended to show it that way, but I didn't like it to be honest.

What a film... not a minute i got distracted from the story. I feel sorry for the Real CBI and Real Police, but, the climax was mind blowing. If the real police or CBI holds the criminals, then there is no kick in the story. I got the real kick at climax. Kudos to the director. The art work is exemplary. It gave the feeling as if we are really in 80s streets. Heroine was not necessary in this film, but its okay. I never got a iota of doubt about Jimmy Shergill's role. It was a shocker. Nice and mature work by director considering that it is just his second film. Special mention to Manoj. he set the stage live with his powerful acting. Overall great movie.

An air of urgency, a wave of 'what next' with a little heat of 'why the romantic angle and songs' is what summarizes Neeraj Pandey's latest outing, 'Special 26'! Till a little after intermission, one wonders why the movie has been titled so. Well, there is more beyond the name. Let's delve into the special nuances:• Performances: Whoa! Neeraj, yet again manages to extract real feel from the reel characters! Whether it be the mastermind, shrewd, opportunist Akki or the more suave but vulnerable yet impressive veteran Anupam Kher. Manoj Bajpai is a treat to watch! The GOW actor is again at his best here whether it be his puns, mannerisms or body-language, all changing as chameleon with the requirements of the story. Jimmy Shergil does full justice to his erratic role. Other supporting actors like Divya Dutta, Tiku Talsania, etc. look well-suited to their characters. Kajal Aggarwal, the so-called female lead of the film is perhaps there to add G-quotient. However, her character only slows the otherwise crisp, high-voltage drama.• Plot and treatment: It's the unusual plot and its execution which score the highest marks for S-26. Bole to, film Ki asli power inhi me hai! The film has a realistic feel of the 1980s be it the gadgets of that era, or the hardly crowded roads or fashion statements. The film is said to be based on true con-incidents that occurred before the license- raj ended in India in 80s. On a macro look, it might look like a normal Chor-police story, sans the high-fundooism and macho-factor of a 'Dhoom' series. However, as the movie progresses, you will find it more amusing, captivating and hair-raising yet entertaining to the core with some taali-mar dialogs!• Music: was not required upfront, though there were 3-4 unrequired songs without which S-26 could have been crispier. However, the background score is one important ingredient in the film as it adds pace to the happenings and gives the 200 mts race, speed of a 100-mt!• Cinematography: Decent enough to make the terrains, places, locations believable and realistic to suit the era and the demand of the story.• Flaws: Yes, S-26 is not short of any flaws. Unnecessary romantic angle and songs I have already mentioned about. Also, a couple of shots filmed with Mumbai sea in background look very artificial. Perhaps, the director wanted to film them in the 80s the ishtyle only!In all, Special 26 is no less special for a watch. After a long time, the climax of a movie didn't disappoint. It's not another 'A Wednesday', but definitely worth a watch. Go for it guys, paisa-vasool hai!
