This is my very first review of any film after watching about every masterpieces around the globe. This is only to praise Indian cinema. These types of movies are required for audience to think about revenge.Very Raw......absolute real image of revenge. How a protagonist becomes antagonist and when an antagonist becomes protagonist, it has happened in a very subtle way....very gradually.The only thing which I disliked was that the story itself is not sufficient to make anyone intact to the screen. It's less entertaining, but after watching you will definitely think about this for hours or days.The first scene of this movie is awesome. Very unique type of camera shot which I have seen so far.This is not a Tarantino style revenge drama which focus on stylish killing, gore and blood. This is a movie which anyone should watch alone without any interruption. Those people who involve in the character while watching movies, this movie is for them.

The whole point of the movie is to show the real partial nature of human conscience. Story is about Dhawan, who loses his wife and son in a crime committed by a gang of criminals. And then Dhawan goes medieval and does so many things, which will be deemed as crime in eyes of law and unacceptable in the eyes of humanity, but still we consider him right and have sympathy with him for what he went through. Director wanted to confuse the audience about their choice of the hero and the villain and he did. The audience perceives the real perpetrator as the hero and real sufferer as the villain. SPOILER : Dhawan kills two people with hammer after breaking their relationship, rapes a woman and beats up a cancer patient. Navazzuddin, on other hand, commits a murder by mistake or you can say, when he is out of control, faces a jail-term, completes it and is diagnosed with cancer, looks at his friends being killed and girlfriend being raped. But still, we call him the villain and supposedly are on the actor's side. Great, dark flick. Dhawan's first non-chocolaty boy role and looks great. Navazzudin is the best actor in the movie. Movie is dark and is at par with action packed drama-thriller movies of Hollywood. It is a must watch in my very honest opinion.

How cold does it have to be for revenge to be served sizzling hot? 'Badlapur', Sriram Raghavan's latest, is a mixed bag of a movie: it has a cracking set-up, a middle with the occasional unsettling prod, and an end which fizzles. A bank heist goes horrifyingly wrong, resulting in the death of innocents. One robber gets away, the other is caught and incarcerated. And the young man whose cozy, comfortable life is overturned by the incident, vows 'badla'. In the way it opens, 'Badlapur' is so riveting you don't even want to blink. You watch, heart in mouth, willing the critically injured to keep breathing. You are hooked, by a beginning which is such a brutal shocker that you cannot wait to see how this tale of darkness and promised destruction will pan out. The rest of the tale is choppy, sometimes leaping off the screen with the right degree of unpredictability, bringing us back to the edge of our seats again, and then letting us off. The look is all lush noir-thriller and transfers instantly, but getting the feel across feels like a stretch.

Average Bollywood revenge dramas thrive on predictability. They rarely, if ever, tamper with the bad guy-good guy construct. Badlapur is an exception.The charms of the movie: Varun and Nawazuddin. The one I liked more was Varun for a very simple reason. Nawazuddin is an acclaimed actor though underrated. It's Varun who broke the stereotype chocolate boy image and got onto a new avatar. One that's disturbing and at the same time interesting.Badlapur toys with many shades of grey, significantly enhancing the effect of its pivotal dramatic conflict.The film does have its share of flaws. Many contrived passages tend to slow down the pace of the narrative.
