Cast : Hrithik Roshan, Sanjay Dutt, Rishi Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Zarina Wahab, Om Puri
Direction: Karan Malhotra
Genre: Crime, Action, Drama
Running Time: 2 Hours 54 minutes
My first reaction was that they messed up with the original one 1990's Agneepath, which is still a watchable movie after 21 years. But this movie turned into a sheer torture to watch.
The movie starts with the good note and picks up the pace in a very quick manner and then the first half ends. The second half plays the real villain in spoiling the movie.
The story is about the revenge of Vijay Chauhan (Hritik Roshan) that he holds against the Kancha who kills his father a school master at Mandva village. Master urges villagers not to give their land to Kancha on lease by telling the consequences. Kancha kills the Master by trapping him into the false allegations. Here, the story of revenge begins. The movie quickly paces up 15 years and comes into present where Vijay is now right hand the Rauf Lala (Rishi Kapoor) the biggest enemy of Kancha into the drug market.
The story and plot is simple and basic but the main thing that lacks in the movie is presentation, here the director and writer seems to fail. Screenplay in first half was good that turned out very poor in the second half. Duration is the problem. And there was no need of any songs except chikni chameli. The songs are so much undesirable that i thought Priyanka was forced in the movie.
There is nothing is this movie for those who want to see some good action. Fight sequence are very old that lacks freshness and creativity.
If it comes to acting no one from all of the star cast lets you down. Hritik eyes tells the pain and Vijay's thirst for revenge. Priyanka did decent job as Kaali character. Sanjay Dutt comes as promising as trailer gave us projection. There is nothing much to do for class actor like Om Puri. Arish Bhiwandiwala did a remarkable work as young Vijay Chauhan. The surprise pachage of the movie is, Rauf Lala very impressively played by Rishi Kapoor. Even, sometimes he looked more dangerous than Kancha.
The background music of the movie (given by Ajay- Atul) seems upto the note in the first hour, but after this it begins to annoy like hell.
At the end, Agneepath was long, overcooked & overstreched. And the bad use of melodrama by Dharma Production at million'th time overshadows performances of Hritik and Rishi Kapoor. A big waste of 174 minutes.
My Rating - 4/10
