Force (2011)

You won't be disappointed!

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Nishikant Kamant's directorial debut "Mumbai Meri Jaan" was quite a good movie and with that nothing short of a masterpiece was expected from him in his next outing. Although this movie is no more than your standard fare and is in fact a remake of the tamil movie "Kaakha Kaahkha" but action is always a difficult genre to deal with, which in current circumstances has been made additionally difficult with the success of awful movies like Singham and Dabbang 2... so in that context this is much better. The movie mostly suffers from a predictable storyline, an annoying Genelia D'Souza (wonder why they didn't simply call her Genelia in the movie since she is totally herself and not so charming at that!) and weak execution at times. However, had it been (thankfully not) the likes of Rohit Shetty, Anil Sharma or the lot handling direction this movie would had been another crazy airborne action mess..but Kamant shows commendable courage in giving its strong villain in newcomer Vidyut Jamwal ample screen time ...sometimes at the cost of its main protagonist John Abraham who at his end does an OK job (I never expect great acting from John anyway!)largely helped by a beefed up physique! WATCH OUT FOR: Vidyut Jamwal Conclusion: Watch this movie to enjoy action as its should be i.e. intense and violent!....6.7/10!

Here's an action film that takes itself seriously--at least.....The fights ,the punches , the shootings , the broken bones--all seem real.....Unlike Dabangg and Singham , where there is no seriousness to the dhishum dhishum , and the film seems to be mocking itself , and also the audience , this film is a no holds barred blood and revenge story.And the action happens at an electric , breathless pace....But when the action is not happening , there are moments of romance too..........And those are provided by Genelia D'souza , who plays a bold and mod ' forward ' city girl , but without any vulgarity ; instead displays a joie de vivre and charm that instantly makes her performance endearing.....The action is provided by the confrontation between two goodlooking bodybuilders--John Abraham and Vidyut Jammwal ; John is the cop from NCP ( no , not Sharad Pawar's Nationalist Congress party , but Narcotics control police ) , and Vidyut is the drug smuggler . Both have their motives for revenge on each other , but only one is bound to survive....those are the rules of the game......While John is bound by his duty and his passion for his job , Vidyut is bound by his greed to control the narcotics business alone--and neither is willing to back down..........Which leads to some real shootings , killings , murders and even rape.....As Vidyut crosses all limits , breaking the old unwritten laws by which policemen and criminals don't target each others families , both begin to lose their close relations and friends to the mayhem..........Making it a fight to the finish......The photography is excellent and the songs are hummable , and John is looking all brawn and muscle .However ,unlike Dabangg and Singham , it does not look like a film made for the masses ; John looks too westernised , and so does Genelia , and so does the pace , rhythm and look of the film....But the classes wont mind it at all.....Verdict--okay .

This film is inspired by the Surya starrer "Kaakha kaakha", and the film definitely goes along those lines. But it lacks the same intensity and punch that Kaakha Kaakha had.Story is about an NCB cop who gets targeted by a psychic but efficient drug lord, who tries to terrorize the cop and his colleagues and their loved ones for revenge.The film is too fast moving, from action to love to drama, as though the makers had limited time and they were trying to fast forward the Tamil version. Some scenes are bogus, songs are not at all melodious, not even Khwaabon Khwaabon, which is the only track that is dubbed from the Tamil film. They have not copied it 100 % ditto; there are variations between both films, but this is somewhat bogus.Some action scenes are noteworthy, and the storyline is good(but of course it's not authentic!). Vidyut Jamal's acting is noteworthy.You can watch Force, but you are better off watching Kaakha Kaakha instead.

Force directed by Nishikant Kamath is entertaining! The movie has a medium-paced first-half and a solid second half.The movie is a remake of Tamil-hit Kaakha Kaakha.Story:- Critically wounded and lying unconscious in a Mumbai hospital, ACP Yashvardhan(John Abraham) of the Narcotics Control Bureau reflects on his life and his love-affair with Maya(Genelia D Souza). With the assistance of the Commissioner as well as his colleagues, Atul(Mohnish Bahl), Kamlesh (Kamlesh Sawant) and Mahesh Pandey, and an informer, Arvind Shetty, he was able to apprehend drug-dealers in Kutch, Gujarat; Jalandhar, Punjab, as well as in Himachal Pradesh. Unknowingly, he paved the way for Vasu Anna Reddy(Mukesh Rishi) to become the sole drug-dealer and invite his Mombasa-based brother, Vishnu (Vidyut Jamwal), to join him. An encounter with the team kills Vasu, and some of the team gets suspended. A vengeful Vishnu decides to target the entire police unit as well as their respective families, and vows that he will not rest until he has killed them all. He starts with brutally killing Mahesh and his wife, Rachna, and then abducts Atul's wife, Swati - with a motive of forcing the former to do away with the remainder of this police team.The story is similar to those of RGV-crime movies.The direction is fine.The music is plain.The action is top-notch.In fact,the movie gets quite violent especially towards the end.The dialogs are well-worded.Performances:- John Abraham is excellent.Debutant Vidyut Jamwal steals the show with his splendid performance.Genelia D Souza is fine.Mohnish Bahl and Mukesh Rishi are good in their respective roles.Sandhya Mridul is perfect.Kamlesh Sawant is funny.On the whole FORCE is a one-time watch!
