Just came back from Screening! & I loved it.
My score
8.5/10. I might go again next week before it is out of cinemas.
Ever since I've seen Dibakar's
SHANGHAI, I always wanted to see
DBB on big screen & I went in with average expectation despite the trailer. This movie is so well made.
It gets better and better with each passing minute after starting off slow in first 30 mins.
Its climax is the best I've seen in mystery suspense thriller genre in Bollywood movies in long long time.
Its got it all. The mystery. 1943 Calcutta. The chinese opium mafia. The World War II backdrop. The ChinaTown gangs. The British Raj. & everything superbly unfolds with few shortcomings.
& also, I am really excited the YRF have produced it and release it this means
get ready for "Dolby TrueHD Advanced 96k Upsampling" that all YRF BluRays have & I cannot wait to hear the excellent background score & moody "calcalcutta kiss" in it.
This is it guys. Desis finally got their Indian Sherlock Holmes & for once, Bollywood did not disappoint at all like overhyped, overrated, boring
BADLAPUR.
Cant wait for the BluRay in this summer!
