This movie was recommended to me by a friend who was trying to 'convert' me and get me to like Bollywood movies. Now I am not saying I dislike all Bollywood movies but I do need certain things when watching a movie: Good acting, a strong ORIGINAL plot and a decent storyline. Ek Villain has none of these. The lead actress is so irritating from the second she shows up on the screen that you actually enjoy the scene when she is murdered and wouldn't mind watching it again & again. SHE CANNOT ACT! The lead actor seems promising....for the first 3 minutes. However you quickly realise how terrible he is when he cannot change his expression at all. In terms of acting, the only award should go to the serial killer's wife - she played the nagging wife role really well and the viewer was able to see how she has emasculated her husband. The storyline is so appalling, not just because it is a blatant rip- off of Korean thriller "I Saw the Devil" but because it is such a poor imitation. As viewers we are already expected to believe that the hero can beat up 100 men in one go and is somewhat immortal, but for me I really lost interest when we see the actress cured of cancer without a single session of chemo. Who is this amazing and miraculous doctor and why is she not out there curing cancer for everyone everywhere and sharing her miracle??? And I also didn't know that Indians have the ability to go deep-sea diving without oxygen tanks! Apparently there are some gill-like tendencies that are inherited by Indians that I really wish I had. Perhaps we are all living in the wrong place and need to move to India where they have cancer curing doctors and magical underwater, unlimited oxygen supplies?To sum up; terrible movie, atrocious acting, hilarious goofs but really nice songs. Go buy the CD and save yourself 3 hours!

The massive hype around Ek Villain was for two major reasons - Mohit Suri's next directional project post the huge success of Aashiqui 2 and for the same reason, Mihtoon and Ankit Tiwari's music and on both fronts, the film must be deemed as a success. Mohit Suri hits the nail yet again with this film, and has no doubt become one of the top directors within the industry. What I like about him, is that he does brilliantly with upcoming actors (think of what he has done with the likes of Emraan Hashmi, Siddharth Roy Kapur and now Siddharth Malhotra). Ek Villain is an emotional roller coaster! Certain scenes between Siddharth and Shraddha leave you fuzzy and romantic, and then other scenes (involving Riteish) leave you angry! I loved the way the story was told. This film is a turning point in Sidharth's career. Initially I was worried he would turn into another Imraan Khan, but far from it. The guy has talent, looks the part and had a lovely on screen chemistry with Shraddha. Looking forward to his next films. Shraddha is awesome! She's charming, energetic, romantic and cute all packed into one small package. I must admit that her constant 'Hey Villain' throughout the film can get a little irritating, but when you look at her sweet smile, you tend to forget everything else. Riteish is a revelation and I hope to see him in such negative shaded roles in the future. He plays the 'innocent but deadly' part so naturally, and he has set very high standards for himself that he needs to continue meeting.Good to see Aamna Sharif back - not only did she look stunning but she played Riteish's wife very well.Regardless of how good the script and performances was, the real winner of the film is the music. Mithoon is one of the best talents in Bollwyood, and every time I see his name as the music director, I know the album is going to be a super hit (Bas Ek Pal, Aggar, Lamhaa, Anwar, Murder 2, Aashiqui 2 and now add Ek Villain to that list). Each and every song is brilliant but my favs are Humdard (Arijit does it again), Galiyaan (Ankit's best work to date) and Awari. Overall the film is a big hit with the twists, performances and music. An overall winner for me!

Ek villain had everything in it to be handsome. The erratic writing and average performances disgraces the soul of the movie.The art work and cinematography are the points to look for.They are the positives to make the movie watchable.The dialog that comes from the writing part seems to show too much of heroism which comes up as a negative.This movie shouldn't have been tried as a commercial movie.It sparks at some moments then gradually gets to be a letdown.This movie is a could-have-been-much-better movie.
