Simply Perfect

Pretty Good

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

'Tezz' is A Decent Thriller, that works in parts. The pace is mostly fast, while the narrative is engaging, at times. The fine cast also deliver.'Tezz' Synopsis: To avenge his past, Aakash Rana (Ajay Devgn) plants bomb in a train endangering lives of 500 passengers.'Tezz' is an interesting idea, that translates into a decent watch. However, the Screenplay isn't arresting at all times. The first-hour is slow-paced & the unwanted songs bore. Its the second-hour that thrills & engages you. The multiple characters are diverse from one another, but they aren't always convincing, thanks to the erratic Writing. Robin Bhatt's Screenplay is quite good in parts, but overall, its flawed. Better Writing was needed! Priyadarshan's Direction is alright. Cinematography is top-notch. Editing is crisp, especially towards the second-hour. Music by Sajid-Wajid is dull.Performance-Wise: Ajay Devgn enacts his part with conviction. Anil Kapoor is superb. The veteran portrays his part effortlessly. Zayed Khan is efficient. Boman Irani is earnest, as always. Kangana Ranaut doesn't work. Sameera Reddy leaves a mark. Mohanlal scores in a brief role. Bhavna Pani is adequate.On the whole, 'Tezz' does offer entertainment, but in parts.

It is a action thriller..... *Cast and crew was good but mohanlal is useless..... *Ultimate chasing scenes with very fast screenplay..... *Camera and direction was great.........-Story which is unacceptable...... -Songs are waste and BGM rocks.....Aakash Rana (Ajay Devgn), is an engineer who stays with his UK citizen wife Nikita (Kangna Ranaut) in London before his illegal status gets discovered and the courts order him deported, thus crushing his dreams of an ideal life.Four years later, Rana returns with vengeance on his mind and teams up with his former employees Adil Khan (Zayed Khan) and Megha (Sameera Reddy) to wreak some havoc. What follows is a bomb threat on a train and a tensed Railway Control officer Sanjay Raina (Boman Irani) and Anti-Terrorism officer Arjun Khanna (Anil Kapoor) trying every trick in the book to avert the disaster and to apprehend the culprits. Sanjay Raina trying his best to save his daughter Piya (Avika Gor) and the passengers in the train who are thrown in the mix are police officer Shivan Nair (Mohanlal) and his team of cops, who are escorting a prisoner on the same ill-fated train and the stage is set for thrills galore and an exciting cat and mouse chase.

I am writing a review after 6 months and the main reason was to alert the audience about this movie. The trailer which I saw was amazing and its expected that its a good thriller with Ajay and Anil in lead. But people plz take care as this is not an Ajay Devgan Movie. His role is just for 20 mins (plus song) in 135 min movie. Though he still shines in his small role. Anil Kapoor and Boman overacting bores a lot. Zayed and Sameera were impressive and there screen time is more than Ajay. Thank God Kangna role is just for 10 mins. Mohan lal is there but for what I really don't know. This is the first Priyadarshan movie which really disappoint me its mixture of 4 holly flicks (Unstoppable + Speed + Ransom + Taking Of Pehlam 123). Direction is very poor. I am giving this 3/10 (1 for Ajay devgan who shines in such a small role, 1 for Tere Bina song and 1 for Stunts)

What do you do when a country, a culture and their purveyors wrong you irreparably? You plant a bomb in a speeding train and hold the establishment to ransom.Taking a cue from Hollywood's most watched bomb-maro-bomb rush-hour excursions into plunder-land, Tezz springs forward as nicely-packaged film.Here we know Ajay Devgn is the closet terrorist. But since his fans won't like it, Devgn is, with due respect to Mira Nair, a reluctant terrorist, how reluctant, we won't reveal fully.Devgn has a back story with screen wife Kangna Ranaut, who in keeping with her character's British domicile, sports blonde hair. No, this is not a joke.Luckily, Priyadarshan's plot has a lot more going for itself than its leading lady's hair-to-stay problems. The director creates a game between 'terrorist' Devgn and cop Anil Kapoor who in true Hollywood style, is on the verge of retirement from service when duty beckons.There are enough men on duty on both sides of the law here to fill up one section of Tihar jail. The narration allows elbow-room for an army of actors laden with anxious motivations and tense expressions to match, all hurling like the speeding train towards an uncertain nemesis. Luckily, the plot finds itself a convincing finale. And we can go home feeling all is not lost for the slick action genre in Bollywood. There is hope.There are some jaw-dropping action sequences here. Some of them, like Devgn and Kapoor's fist-to-fist in the grand finale and the search for Devgn in a hospital's car park, are so expertly executed they make you forget how far Bollywood lags behind in the action genre from its firangi counterpart. But then again some of the stunts like the one where passengers from the bomb-threatened train climb into a safe train, are done clumsily.Curiously, Zayed Khan and Sameera Reddy who play Devgn's accomplices in the terror crime are given one extended chase sequence, each. They show remarkable agility in their given space. Ditto the film's technicians. Thiru S. Appan's camera looks at London with keen anticipation."He's Indian, not Pakistani," Boman confidently informs cop Anil Kapoor with a straight face.The absurdities don't swamp Tezz. True its title, the tale of a bomb and a Boman trying to diffuse the crisis, whizzes by at breakneck speed.Priyadarshan tackles what's a new genre for him, with pleasure and aplomb. Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, Boman Irani, Sameera Reddy and Zayed Khan furnish a flavour of slickness to a story that holds your attention till the end.Not quite edge-of-the-seat, the thrills in Tezz are engaging enough to keep us watching.
