Reviews
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
silvan-desouza Abbas Mustan have made their career remaking Hollywood films but we got some great suspense thrillers like Khiladi(1992), Baazigar(1993). Humraaz(2002) some average films like Baadshah(1999),Ajnabee(2001) some novel concepts like CCCC(2001) and some duds like Daraar(1997), 36 China Town(2006), Naqaab(2008).How do I classify Players? The film has such a non happening cast(that isn't really a deterrent normally but here it's an issue), The film tries to remake The Italian Job which was remade twice in 50s and in 2003 but there try too hard to Indianise it, making it a mockery. For morality issues, the film shows a motive behind the robbery, And of course we have to have our song, dances, romance, back stories.etc The film tries too hard to add up on everything ending up being neither here nor there. There are several scenes that make you cringe, like the first robbery scene, The climax where we come to know the cars are made of gold(Stupidity at it's height)Direction by AM is ordinary, some scenes are well handled but overall the film falls short Music is ordinary but looks forced in the film.Abhishek Bachchan who was going through a bad phase(when isn't he) does his normal act like in many films, nothing new Bobby Deol is hardly given importance(that too by Abbas Mustan), Sikander Kher lacks screen presence and is ordinary, The worst casting is of Omi Vaidhya who has become too repetitive in the same act he has been doing since 3 Idiots. Neil Nitin Mukesh tries very hard but tends to overdo Sonam Kapoor as in her most films before Ranjanaa is hardly anything great, Bipasha Basu is nothing great either. Johny Lever's role is nonsense and he is hardly funny. Aftab has a cameo,Vinod Khanna has a brief role and is nothing great, age is finally showing on him, rest are nothing great
Caspian Troy I will give this movie 5 stars because I really enjoyed this movie until Interval....When I went to see this movie I was very open minded because of the cast and director duo and I was very impressed by the twist and turns writers added to this movie inspired by original Italian Job (One of my favorite heist movie) however I don't know what happened to writers imagination after first major heist pulled by top players in the world....It seems first half of the movie written by professional writers and second half written by spot boys in Bollywood industry.This could have been one of the best heist movie in the Bollywood history but they just wanted viewers to enjoy meals and drinks in Interval and go home laughing about same old bad Indian Imagination for ending movies and making the hero smarter than villain.
pranavgoyal A very random cast come together to make a Hindi version of Italian Job and end up spoiling it to no end. The script tries to take twists from the original movie for the Indian people who have actually watched "Italian Job" to go all 'oooooh' in the theater, but what they didn't know is the audience isn't that stupid to believe all that was shown.Abhishek Bacchan and Neil Nitin Mukesh do a good job, but Sonam Kapoor CANNOT act to save her life, neither is she good looking, what she tries really hard in the movie to be. Bipasha Basu does what she does best.Some of the stuff shown is so unreal that by half way through, you are just sitting in the theater to at least squeeze in little worth of your money. I mean Mukesh's character 'Spider' has this huge mansion with all high tech stuff, but one bloody vehicle barges in and destroys everything right to his bedroom, really people?The only saving grace to the movie was the little good action it had, especially the train heist, other than the movie was just in bad taste after what Abbas-Mustan had provided in 'RACE'
csadangi So, guys get ready to watch a repeat telecast of The Italian job (Wahlberg, Statham 2003 movie) with a last moment twist and songs :DThe complete story is just a copy of the Italian job and Nothing new. Initially, i thought it would be a great movie. The actors did a good job though especially Sonam Kapoor (she is looking hot) and Omi Vaidya with his coming timing. The background score of the movie is good. I was expecting more from the director Abbas Mustan but they have the same thing to give i.e. one of the lady in the movie would turn out to be on the villain side (Remember Race).All in all don't expect too much from this movie. If you don't have any movie to watch then go for this.
