Plot
'Commando
3'
begins
with
the
cops
chasing
down
a
group
of
misled
youth,
who
are
prepping
for
a
massive
terrorist
attack
on
the
country
under
the
influence
of
a
masked
radical.
In
a
bid
to
avert
this
destructive
plan,
the
bureau
ropes
in
Karanveer
Singh
Dogra
(Vidyut
Jammwal)
and
Bhawna
Reddy
(Adah
Sharma).
The
early
investigations
lead
the
duo
to
London
where
the
mastermind
of
this
attack
is
probably
hiding.
There,
Karanveer
and
Bhavana
receive
help
from
their
British
counterpart
Mallika
Sood
(Angira
Dhar).
Will
Karan
and
Co.
nab
down
the
culprit
before
it's
too
late?
Direction
Aditya
Datt
who
last
helmed
Rajeev
Khandelwal-Paresh
Rawal's
'Table
No
21'
calls
the
directorial
shots
in
'Commando
3'.
Like
the
previous
films
in
the
'Commando'
franchise,
this
one
too
stays
true
to
its
heavy-duty
action
genre.
A
few
visuals
in
the
film
are
graphic.
While
the
movie
is
high
on
action,
it's
the
paltry
dialogues
that
put
you
off
at
places.
The
director
falters
when
it
comes
to
executing
certain
sensitive
portions
with
subtlety.
The
film's
writing
loses
its
grip
in
certain
portions.
Performances
Vidyut
Jammwal
holds
your
attention
with
his
ripped
physique
and
smooth
action
moves.
He
jumps,
kicks
and
flips
as
if
he's
got
no
bones
in
his
body.
His
gravity-defying
stunts make
your
jaw
drop.
However,
the
man
still
has
a
long
way
to
go
when
it
comes
to
emoting
on
the
big
screen.
Brownie
points
to
the
makers
for
giving
the
ladies,
Adah
Sharma
and
Angira
Dhar,
a
chance
to
kick
some
butt
just
like
the
men
in
the
film.
Adah
also
brings
in
some
comic
relief.
Gulshan
Devaiah
is
the
most
impressive
of
the
lot,
as
a
religious
fanatic
with
a
manipulative
streak.
Unfortunately,
the
makers
fail
to
save
his
character
from
falling
into
the
trap
of
the
cliched
tropes
of
a
villain.
Technical
Aspects
Mark
Hamilton's
camerawork
needed
to
be
a
little
more
neater.
Nevertheless,
it
still
works
fine
for
the
film.
The
action
choreography
saves
the
day
for
this
Vidyut
Jammwal
starrer
when
the
writing
falls
flat.
Sandeep
Kurup's
editing
falters
at
places.
Music
The
film
features
only
'Tera
Baap
Aaya'
song
and
it
gels
well
with
the
narrative.
The
rest
of
the
tracks
are
a
part
of
the
soundtrack
album,
which
is
available
online.
Verdict
'Commando
3'
is
strictly
meant
for
Vidyut
Jammwal
fans
and
for
those
who
have
a
fondness
for
'dishoom-dishoom'.
This
action
flick
begins
with
a
bang
only
to
end
with
a
whimper.
I
am
going
with
2.5
stars.
