I fail to understand how a movie of this class even manages to make its way into theaters in old Delhi, let alone be screened at PVR and get good reviews. Maybe Hindi cinema has reached such low levels, that if anything that hasn't been re-hashed in the last 2 years is released, everyone applauds that movie for its uniqueness.The story is old and stale, something that's been used over-and-over-and-over-and-over again. Gangster - in love with - bar dancer- cheating with- restaurant singer. Unfortunately I can't tell you the "twist" without putting a spoiler warning, but it's so predictable that you'll guess within the first 5 seconds of the movie.This was the first (and last) of the Emran Hashmi movies that I have seen. Too bad he does so many movies, because now, when deciding which movies to watch, I first remove all of the 30 movies that he does every month from my list. Shiny is completely unutilised. I wonder why he was in the movie at all........oh that's right.....the movie was named after his character. Kangana Ranaut, don't get me started, how did she ever land a movie. She looks great, but her accent is atrocious.All in all, my advice: Do No Watch!!
The movie is supposed to be the story of Abu Salem & Monica Bedi. Bhatts are always known to make films on controversial subjects. They always try to remain in news. This time they have just done that with a quickly made film Gangster. Daya lives with his family in Kashmir from where he relocates to Mumbai. Reaching Mumbai he joins Bhais to become a Gangster.In Mumbai he meets Simran a bar dancer (again a controversial career option by Bhatts). She helps him escape from Police. They start living together and falls in love. Then few scenes & emotions later, Daya is forced to stay away from Simran during which she meets Akash, gets physical with him and gets pregnant too. Daya returns to her life again. Now Simran has to decide with whom she wants to stay. But she doesn't know what has in store for her and Daya.And when she realizes, nothing is left.
When I saw the film Gangster I was amazed at how wonderful it was. The acting was brilliant and the story line was good. It is not your average Karan Johar love movie. It is wonderful the way they act and the feeling they all put into it. The ending was killer and it made the movie. Unlike a lot of other movies that I have seen, this movie makes you feel for the characters. When they are in pain it's like you are in pain. If you sometimes cry in movies get a tissue box. This movie had great actors in it and they all showed a lot of emotion. This film was truly a beautiful film. The upcoming movie Woh Lamhe stars two of the main actors that were in this movie. I really hope you find this comment useful and watch the movie.
Finally watched gangster last night Remember Mahesh Bhatt..the writer,director and great story teller of 90's In last few years he got lost somewhere But with gangster he is back with a powerful and heart touching script Well all said and done whether Gangster lives upto the expectations? Yes in someway and no in somewayStory: As every1 knows.Most of the story is in flashback Aakash loves Simran but Simran hesitates cause of her past.Later we come to know Simran had an affair with Gangster in past. Just when Aakash and Simran make love 'gangster' comes back and simran had to make choice.Whether to go with gangster or to stay with AakashCritic: Negative points: 1.The most negative aspect of movie is its slow pace.Sometimes when Kangna narrates the story you might feel lost somewhere And to be frank we went for the movie with 12 friends and more than half of them didnot liked the movie mainly due to slow pace which forced to boredom 2.Kangna is in a lifetime role.But her voice really don't suit much and don't make much impact 3.Kangna is brilliant sometimes and overboard and irritating sometimes especially in crying scenes 4.The portion where Shiny pleads Kangna to give him one more chance is just crap and over melodramatic.Especially when shiny tries to cry.I was not expecting such from Shiny Ahuja U can listen many people laughing in that scene although it tries to be emotional one 5.The scene at seoul station in climax.Shiny tries to cry too much.I was expecting to see his expressive eyes again in that scene rather than cryingPositive points: 1.Brilliant Music 2.Splendid performances 3.Well twists and turns 4.This movie has soul and heart 5.Classic endingWell don't know whether Kangna will get such a role in lifetime or not.But this is a role which any actress should die out to work for. She is incosistent.She goes overboard in crying scenes and her voice had negative impact.But she had done a wondefull job looking that its her first movie.She is brilliant in some scenes Especially she is quite good post interval.A talent to watch out for.7/10 for her performanceEmraan Hashmi is good.He had done what he was given.5/10 for his performanceNow the show stealer Shiny Ahuja.Well apart from the two scenes which i mentioned in negative points he was just outstanding An actor to watch out for.Needs to improve in crying scenes.He lits fire whenever he comes on the screen.With his expressive eyes he says all.The anger,emotion and the unconditional love for Simran comes out through his eyes.Gangster rocks cause shiny ahuja rocks.He is just brilliant. 9/10 for his performanceGangster is story of love,betrayal and sacrifice.Definitely a powerful story and could have turned classic if it had been managed better and could have been a little fastYa ali song and the shootout is just perfect and shiny's expressions are brilliant U get shock in the opening scene of movie itself.In the very beginning Kangna says she wants to live anyhow till morning.And u will keep guessing what she wanna do in morning And u will get the answer in the end only.The end is indeed classical and touches your heart and leaves u speechlessGangster takes the deeper look inside the heart of gangster.They are human beings and every1 wants love.Cant tell much about BO cause of its slow pace.But thanks Bhatt Sahab for coming back with a powerful script and which is not a Hollywood copy This Gangster had heart and soulKuch Jyada Nahi Manga Tha Zindagi Se Par Zindagi Badle Me Hamesha Mujhse Kuch Kyada Hi Mangti Rahi(Kangna)....Gangster
