Wazir Review

Status: Released on 8th January

Wazir Movie Poster Rating: 2.5/5* Star



Star Cast:
Farhan Akhtar, Amitabh Bachchan, Aditi Rao Hydari, Neil Nitin Mukesh, John Abraham

Director: Benjoy Nambiar  

Good Things:
  • Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar deliver strong performances in the movie.
  • The chemistry between Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar looks quite natural and they make up for some of the best scenes in the film.
  • Also just the way he says, “Khel Khel mein” is superb.
  • Neil Nitin Mukesh scares the hell out of you with his evil antics. He doesn’t have much screen time but the scenes that he features in are quite unforgettable.

Bad Things:
  • Predictability and loose sense of detailing are the biggest giveaways for this thriller.
  • Danish Ali (Farhan) has the powers to call for a “Nakabandi” or even facilities such as phone tapping etc. And he is posting a letter to Ruhana (Aditi Rao Hydari) from Kashmir, explaining his actions. I mean come on, what generation is it?
  • John Abraham is completely wasted in this film with a character that has no detailing. His entry hardly makes a difference to the story.    


Which time is the best (before interval or after interval):
  • Second half would be a good time!


Watch or Not? :
  • If you were planning to watch “Wazir” as a thriller then no point!


Wazir Review: The Final Word:
  • Wazir is a missed opportunity. It is a story that could have been gripping but suffers from a bad treatment, thus leaving you disappointed.
  • Farhan and Big B do their best to save this thriller but they can’t.
  • So, basically, it’s like the audiences will end up saying Check Mate to makers.
  • I am going with a 2.5/5* for the film. (Source: koimoi)
