Hindi Movie - Special 26
Impressed one-and-all with his gripping direction and storytelling.
That film worked because of many reasons – a tight gripping screenplay,
an impeccable script, flawless performances, crisp editing (100
minutes).
Based on true incidents, Akshay kumar, Anupam Kher, Manoj Bajpayee have done a terrific role.
Its about a gang of four 'fake' CBI officers – led by Ajay (Akshay Kumar) and P.K
Sharma (Anupam Kher). They conduct raids at the houses of corrupt
politicians and businessmen and keep all the supposedly 'seized' money
and jewellery for themselves. There is no particular reason why they do
this.Their acts do end up looking
like public service, considering that the so-called thieves are getting
into trouble. Yet, it is fun to watch these fake officers do their thing
and even more fun is to witness the reactions of those who are being
raided.
Special 26 – Technical
The scenes have been brilliantly written –memorable moments
include the raids conducted in Delhi and Kolkata, the banter between
Anupam Kher and Akshay Kumar, Akshay's penultimate scene with Manoj
Bajpayee, Jimmy Sheirgill and Divya Dutta's chemistry among many more.
I watched "Special 26" on a working Wednesday Morning - 10 AM Show,,,as the Cinepolis Bangalaore Morning Wednesday show is cheaper - i was overwhelmed to see a jam packed house.
A movie not to be missed.
