Here's what i have to say on Tashan.............
Tashan was the most awaited film of the year...... which got the expectations of the people more and more....... and there comes a weakness of the indians.... they get too excited about movies..... whatever they want if they do not get that.... they feel the movie is a flop show..... and one more thing i would like to add that dont compare it with those hollywood action films.... Tashan brings in INDIA the new genre of DESI COMEDY NOIR..... i m sure many of you much have heard about it.....
Well to start with.... story was pretty normal.... nothing new in that..... but the performances were brilliant.... specially Akshay Kumar and Saif.... the other too were good two.... but the only problem with Kareena was that she did some extra skin show which wasnt required at some points..... And Anil Kapoor wasnt clear in some scences....
If we talk about the roles.... i feel the movie was equally divided into Akshay Kumar, Anil Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor.... Saif had a smaller role which he played brilliantly.....
Coming to the cinematography.... it was great.... but it was a bit flawless...... Then Songs were great.... and their picturization was superb.... specially Falak Tak.....
Then the songs.... the songs rocked big time..... but background music could be a bit better.... but still wont say it was poor would rate it average.......
In the first half.... the film is full of comedy and great entries by the stars... specially Akshay Kumar.... he continues his comedy here too.... den starts some magical ride.... story runs very fast for about 15 20 mins until the Jaipur Sequence..... thats the ultimate fighting scene..... a bit over though.... but who cares movies are just to have fun and offcourse the movies like Tashan are not made to show reality but to entertain ppl.... the fighting scenes are shot perfectly in Jaipur and their u feel that the movie is rocking..... den a bit slow... all the romantic angle and other things are there.... then the climax.... i bet u.... you wouldnt hav seen such a sequence in recent times... wat a ending...... although the movie got a bit streched in the second half like in the case of Jab We Met.... but wen u realize that Tashan rocks again.... and makes you feel that you hav watched something kind of a landmark...... it marks the era of action in the True sence.....
Some dull moments were there... but if u look at it wholely.... its a enjoyable film......
Some action scenes were there where akki fought with about 20 guys but really it looked watchable.... theres just one scene where u can say ki bas yaar ab kuch zyada he hogaya.... dats it about the action scenes....
Adding to it.... Critically however the movie will be.... but it can not be a flop at the boxoffice because of the good start.... MARK MY WORDS.....
What I liked about the movie:
Comedy, Acting, Music and Action........
What I didn't like about the movie:
Background Score......
Would you recommend this movie to your friend: Yes
