Review of Race
Have you ever seen a Hindi movie in which all the 3 male protagonists are villains? Out of the three female characters one is a vamp, one has shades of grey in her character and the third one is a brainless beauty. This is what makes Race different!
It is a fast paced thriller.The movie keeps you hooked to your seats till the end. I couldn’t guess what is going to happen next. Full of surprises till the last scene. I would not like to disclose the story .The performance of Saif Ali Khan, Bipasha Basu, Anil Kapoor and Sameera Reddy is not exceptional. Akshay Khanna’s performance was amateurish. The music was good especially “Pehli nazar” by Atif aslam. If you don’t expect too much from the film, you won’t be disappointed. Don’t go expecting logic, just look for entertainment.

I did not know there were people who watched Bollywood films for their logic
That said, a friend said that this was not the kind of film she would take her 9-year old girl to see. (She did and that is how she knows; in the UK, for some reason, all certifications and caution are thrown to the wind in cinema halls that run ‘desi’ fillums. I cannot say whether it is pragmatic ‘adjushtment’ of policies by cinema owners based on the observation that Indians take their children to most places, or plain old direct pressure from the customer).

Lubz, you won’t be disappointed. Make sure you don’t go with your parents.I am not sure if Pakistani parents are used to watching so much skin show with their children.
Shefaly and @iamvisheshur, these days there are some movies with logic.
Race is certified ‘A’ here in India so I guess 9 year olds should be left at home.I am not sure most Indians would like to take their children to a movie where a brother is ready to kill another brother,wife cheats on her husband, and there is a police officer who is corrupt and is perfectly happy about it.
Thanks @bubbleonfire.
