Review of Johnny Gaddaar (2007) by Diprarag D — 30 Oct 2007

I absolutely loved this film and it's easily my favorite Indian movie of the year. The retro style tied in with the noirish thriller story was very well executed. Almost all the new actors in the film were perfect for their roles and really made the characters come alive.

But the highlight of the film is easily the script because of it's perfect ability to keep the audience at end of their seats for the whole movie. This is not a movie you can just relax and watch without paying attention to detail.

Hopefully more Bollywood movies will try original ideas like this instead of rehashing older movies with big stars and huge effects.
