There is nothing to be so surprised if I say this for a Salman Khan movie. It's a movie with perfect dosage of masala at the right places. After all, Prabhudheva too is a talented director. And this movie proves it very well.Prabhudheva, who also directed the Tamil remake Pokkiri (2007),that featured my favorite Tamil actor Vijay, has managed to could the south Indian masala for the north Indian audiences very well. The film is simply the best one of Salman,who is the show stealer throughout the entire movie. The fights and music too are mind blowing and won't let you rise from the seat,until it's over. The film has showcased Salman in a definitely new avatar,which we had never seen before. Really,this is one of the best action entertainers of all time.On the whole, Wanted is the best film of Salman Khan and also is a perfect masala entertainer. A definite entertainer!
... View MoreThe movie itself is a good piece of work. The dialogues are good and so is the script. You have to remember that it is a remake of the Telegu film Pokiri, but i feel it does justice to the original. Nobody could have played the leading role played by mahesh babu in 'pokiri' better than Salman Khan, who the only action hero in bollywood at present. This is the career best for Ayesha Takia, who plays the female lead in this film. Others such as Vinod Khanna, Govind Namdeo and Prakash Raj are also good in the film. The music is also decent. The two tracks that stand out are 'Jalwa' and 'Love me love me'. The dialogues, delivered in typical fashion by Salman Khan, are also good. As an action fan, i really liked it.My verdict: unmissable for Salman and action fans. 9.5/10
... View MoreWhen i watched the movie i expected a lot as i am a big fan of Salman Khan. The story of the movie moves along at a good pace, and you never really guess what is going on until it happens. I don't want to give away too much for those people who haven't watched the movie. Aisha Takia looks sexy as always, in my opinion she is very under rated in the business.is a story that will not be new to most regular bollywood movie watchers the twist is very good.Salman Khan looks very big in the movie and they show him as a Herculean man who can beat up any1. this look suits salman very well.Overall it is a movie which i would recommend it has some good action sequences and the story is also quite entertaining.

Suddenly Hollywoodland is not the only place filmmakers are limited to lay their hands on source material especially for action movies. Wanted by what I gather from around is the most wanted film for makers and takers as well. Originally made in Tamil as Pokiri, followed by Telugu remake and now here it is B-grade B-version. Each shares genes of a superstar of their native woodlands with the other. Ours stars Salman Khan and Wanted is destined to be a hit for sure. Producer Boney Kapoor imports director from South, elastic Prabhu Deva (debut) and casts one of Bollywood superstar. Name is Radhe, just Radhe, a killer for hire who can take on an entire army and can action sequences starts like a video game with Sallu taking controls just thrashing till game over. "I work for money", he says without flinching it as its most self- marketed line and a principle together. His employers are city mafia dons. Everyone is eager to buy his services and his loyalty. Salman stands in mid-fight of two gangs making room for plenty of brainless action whacking, thrashing, crushing bones, clenching fists and flying fury and whirling beaten up goons bodies crashing. Apart from lynching the killer has heart too and he loses it to bubbly Ayesha Takia. She works in a call-centre and has extra-fit body, thanks to her regular aerobics which hero and villain (Mahesh Manjarekar plays the filthy cop) equally appreciate. And by the way there is twist ending to win more applause from Khan Aficionados and justify this theatre of cruelty. Salman apparently looks awake after so many sleepwalks in previous endeavors. He is in his full superstar mode and I can hear whistles and applauses from front rows. This is a ridiculously over the top B-grade entertainment targeted for mass pumped with South Indian steroids. If you are Salman Khan you are anyway going to see it. Rest and whoever would want to keep safe distance from Wanted.
