A remake of Gautham Menon's successful 2003 Tamil film, Kaakha Kaakha, 'Force' is Time-Pass Entertainment. It has a fairly engaging script, along-with good action, good visuals & impressive direction working for it. 'Force' is about a dutiful cop who chases the capture of a dreaded gangster. Let me clarify: 'Force' is not meant for the faint-hearted. The excessive violence, especially in the second-hour, is sure to put off the illy-livered. In terms of Script, this recent Action-Fare, has some captivating moments & good stunts going for it. Ritesh Shah's Screenplay begins superbly, but dips considerably in the second-hour, which, honestly, doesn't quite do the trick. Also, the loud & depressing climax, is not up-to the mark. Nishikanth Kamath's Direction, is impressive. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design, are perfect. Stunts are good. Music by Harris Jayaraj, is soulful.Performance Wise: John Abraham suits the part, and does reasonably well. Genelia D'Souza is her usual self. Vidyut Jamwal is terrific as the ruthless villain. He is the scene-stealer here. Mohnish Bahl is in form. Raj Babbar supports well. Mukesh Rishi scores. Kamlesh Sawant, Ameet Gaur, Sandhya Mridul & Anaitha Nair lend support. On the whole, 'Force' is a time-pass fare.

I watched the Telugu version of this movie (Gharshana, starring Venkatesh and Asin). I liked the telugu movie for action scenes and was curious to see the bollywood treatment. It was not any better than the telugu version, both had their drag elements in the first half.Heard from many ( including some reviews here) that the Tamil version Kaakha Kaakha is the best of three. Got to watch that.Khwabo Khwabi is a good song ('Uyiren Uyiren' in tamil sounds so much better, may be becoz I heard that first years ago).Overall John's performance is good, Genelia is cute ( story did not offer her much to do so can't blame her) but the Villain impresses at every scene. What I like about the villain in this movie is that he does not waste time, do your job and leave. No emotional dialogues between villain and hero (who is not tired of the typical dialogue fight between the duo before actual fight begins).

If you are a Die hard fan of John. Then, maybe you will find it useful. But for other those who are watching it just for having a great time...Then NO ...Because there are several Flaws and weaknesses in the film ...sorry not several......actually many. First, Cinematography of this film sucks Big time. Secondly, story hasn't been well thought out. Thirdly,camera positioning is quite awkward. Fourthly, Odd locations has been chosen for filming and ....So on. But about performance part, .... I should say John has done some good Workout and also acting. Genelia, is also quite good in her performance but her character hasn't been written well. So, not a worthy film to watch. Summary : No. of times i looked upon my watch(while watching the movie) - 9 Story - 6/10 (For Indians).(**This movie could have been much better) Performances - 8/10. Direction and other departments - 4/10

I have seen many Hindi remakes of south films before but "Force" stands out as it sticks to the original script as far as possible. I feel its not fair to compare the original version with a remake as it will be like comparing apples with oranges and hence i wouldn't make an attempt. The movie doesn't deviate from its core script to provide an extra item song or stunt just to make the audience happy nor does it inject lot of unwanted twists and unrealistic stunts. It stands by its script and delivers a good entertainer. Even though the promos projected the movie as more of an action film, romance plays a major part in the movie and over shadows the action element. Unlike other action movies where the romance is just to support some song sequences in Force you can feel the romance when the lead pair falls for each other. As John described during the movie promo the action sequences are merciless and very Raw. Overall its a no nonsense movie which tries to tell the story of a cop in a way which is close to reality without loosing the commercial elements required for a film. Go watch it if you like romantic action movies and you wont be disappointed.Read full review at www.movierecycle.com
