Review of Raees (2017) by Borhan K — 28 Jan 2017

Time to get some more Bollywood flick reviews. The wife and I went to the movies yesterday and strapped ourselves in for a long ride.

We were taken on an adventure about a young boy that becomes his own kingpin in Gujrat and how he gets around prohibition. The story is that in Gujrat Alcohol was banned and how Raees got around it by fooling the authorities.

It was a cat mouse game for over 2 and a half hours.

Which was not bad. As you know Bollywood flicks have three ingredients. Boy meets girl thy fall in love sing and dance circles around themselves and then get married that is the second ingredient get married.The third is that some person has to die and this Bollywood flick has all three.

I have to say the love story played second fiddle to the Alcohol story.

The other actors were not well known were up and comers the lead female was someone that my wife knew as she was Indian Soap Opera's and she did a decent job managing to keep up with the Bollywood version of Tom Cruise Shah Rukh Khan.

Fans of Shah Rukh Khan this is a must watch for you guys it is a decent flick and has a good story.

The songs were decent seven songs in this movie which is not bad a good amount of songs.

If you are going to watch this make sure you invest in the time.
