Zanjeer Critics Review

firstpost.in
Zanjeer is not just a bad film, it is proof of a filmmaker who is barely even trying. To say this remake defecates upon the legacy of the original film would be giving it too much credit. Zanjeer is that it’s a filthy leech of a movie that simply uses the rights it owns and absolutely desecrates the sanctity of the original. Lakhia goes so far as to use the late journalist J Dey as a character and caricaturises him. Because that’s what a crime journalist who chronicled the underworld and eventually paid for with his life deserves – a mockery of his life’s work, Bollywood-style.

What we anticipated from the director was sheer maintenance of the old world charm with the fresh troupe of Ram, Priyanka and Sanjay but director stumbled here.

What makes Vijay Khanna in the new "Zanjeer" special is the plot-mechanics which put him in time-worn situations, but subject him to dramatic dynamics that give the prototypical Angry Cop a renewed riveting life of violent score-settling.

Lakhia's Zanjeer is neither slavishly reverent to the original material nor does it take off into weird wild and wacky tangents. This is one remake that stands tall and lithe. It is manned by a manful supply of action and yet manages to keep the machismo understated. Breakneck-paced, adrenaline-pumping, pulse-pounding -- Lakhia's deconstructed version of the Prakash Mehra film is a full-on pacy paisa-vasool entertainer with brio and balls.

  • Horrible, boring and totally ridiculous would suit this film. All the actors fail to cultivate the mannerisms of the characters in the premake. The plot was clearer than other movies such as Krrish 3 and BMB, yet it failed to deliver script wise an..
