This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

seriuosly dint expect varun dhawan to act so serious role, he is kind of immature coolleege kid acting done so long, but my god the way acted in this movie actually revealed hisd true potential , varun has to explore more of his role characters for reaching greater heights,...he totally deserves to be awarded expecting an actor who has done the same kind of role, again and again, to act in the same way I s easy for him eg nawassidin siddique whereas varun has done never this kind of role ..hence he deserrves the praise ==== what a stellar performance...keep goiung varun

Very good gritty revenge caper. Varun shines here and this boy will go far. Nawazuddin is amazing as the unrepentant, lying loser. No clichés, our hero has no issues sleeping around while mourning his love, This is almost a classic. Despite the stretched ending this easily falls in the Ek hasina thi. Johnny Gaddar category. A must watch.

BADLAPUR is the kind of dark, revenge-fuelled thriller that Hollywood have been accustomed to making in the last decade. It bears the hallmarks of earlier films like TAKEN or MAN ON FIRE, featuring a broken protagonist out on a mission of revenge, although it should be noted that it's a rather subtle and slow-burning revenge in places as BADLAPUR has a rather overlong running time and a very slow pace throughout.The twist, of course, is that this is an Indian film. I've not seen much in the way of Bollywood cinema, typically limiting myself to older fantasy or horror movies, but I was sufficiently impressed by this film to want to see more. While the story is dragged out too much for my liking, the direction is fine and the cinematography is very good indeed, with lots of bright and vivid colours and scenes making a great change from the usual dull greyed-out colour palette favoured by Hollywood and its imitators.This isn't really an exciting or action-packed movie as it's more thoughtful than that. The villainous characters seem to have a greater focus and more characterisation than the actual hero. It's also a pretty dark story, with an odyssey of revenge leading to plenty of violence, and the female characters are treated particularly badly by the story. There are a couple of very violent interludes which are shocking considering the film's genteel pace elsewhere. It's a thoughtful and thought-provoking movie well worth a watch for those looking for something different compared to the usual Hollywood norm.

saga that plays out with such eyebrow- singeing intensity that I could imagine a gravel-voiced narrator filling us in on dames and dreams and dark, stormy nights. Raghavan, like the film's leading man Raghu, plays his cards close to the chest and lets the audience simmer in anticipation as he slow-cooks the meaty, meaty plot and lets the story unravel.As a premise, Badlapur appears simple enough. A young man shockingly loses game Overall average movie Badlapur might not be in the Ek Hasina Thi and Johnny Gaddar league, but it is a happy sign that Sriram Raghavan has left Agent Vinod behind.
