What is special?
The Plot - climax is stunning, the suspense factor and the witty humor punch, made the real story a perfect thriller.
Acting was extraordinary by everyone - Akki, Anupam, Manoj & Jimmi
Cinematography and story treatment was exceptional, great work by Neeraj Pande. The best movie of the year so far.
What could have been better?
Unnecessary songs, little more dialog punches and fiction element.

- DirectorZoya AkhtarDibakar BanerjeeKaran JoharStarsRani MukerjiRandeep HoodaSaqib SaleemOne hundred years of Hindi cinema is celebrated in four short stories showcasing the power of film.Very fresh, surprise package. But since this was made for 100 years of Bollywood, the stories are disjointed, not much Bollywood connection
Whats good?
KZ came with a surprise pack, not sure why he always he do not make theme based movie.
DB came up with a nice plot, probably the best.
Randeep Huda was great and Nawiuddin/Rani was impressive
What could have been better?
ZA's story was not bad, but average
I didnt like AK's story, he should keep making dark theme movies
The stories could have been connected by either Bollywood theme or themes of being independent, aspirations or fulfilling dream.
Songs are average.
My Rating - 7.5 - DirectorAditya DattStarsParesh RawalRajeev KhandelwalTina DesaiA couple is drawn into a game show with a whooping winning prize. However the game turns into more than a survival for them with no escape.Worth Watching, the twist is better and ends with a social message.
Whats good?
Nice script, based on the reality show "Sach ka Samna"
Paresh Rawal is excellent as usual.

Music, cinematography, acting and overall impact was average
My rating - 6.5 - DirectorKamal HaasanStarsPooja KumarMiles AndersonKamal HaasanWhen a classical dancer's suspecting wife sets an investigator behind him, a series of violent events are triggered, revealing his real identity and connection to a darker world.Vishwaroop is worth watching, a movie on the terrorist plot, AF to NYC, but expectation is more.
Whats Good?
The KH Factor, the actor KH and director KH both exceeded one another. The story telling is not liner and VFX effect is good.
The huge production cost - I was wondering where the hell he has spent 100Cr, but was convinced after watching the realistic afgan film city bombarded by Copters, one should watch just for that.
What could have been better?
Plot - I personally feel the climax was weak and its just a preparation of next sequel.
Humor touch - a little more punch could have been better, as I personally like his humor.
Suspense factor - was not at par with the great movies, it lacs its genre and somehow shadowed into a confused predictable terrorist movie.
