Commando 3 – An Out and Out Action Movie

If you like to go for action, then rush to the nearest cinema screening the Hindi movie, ‘Commando 3’. This third offering in the series has everything to pump adrenaline into your system and give you a high for all your money’s worth. It gets into the thick of action right from the word go, with a police officer learning about a planned terror attack. Enter Karanveer Singh Dogra (Vidyut Jamwal) and Bhavana Reddy (Adah Sharma), and the rest is Commando-3.
Action rarely gets bigger than this, in your face and disturbingly graphic, at times. Hardcore action fans may love it though, complete with guts, guns, and gore. Vidyut Jamwal, who has his role as Commando Karanveer Singh Dogra cut out for him, delivers on the storyline with gusto. His acting chops leave the audience glued to the chair, while the rest of the cast mostly, portray their characters with skill.  Adah Sharma and Angira Dhar, as the British counterpart, Mallika Sood, excel in their respective roles but do not ring true at times. Gulshan Devaiah, as the evil mastermind (Buraq Ansari), though, is clearly out of his depths, and fails to live up to his past performances.

Action thrillers usually do not have a gripping storyline, and ‘Commando 3’ is no exception to the rule. As a result, Commando 3 too, like other action flicks, ends up relying on too many stock situations like the hero making an entry saving a damsel in distress. But the stock situations and the predictable storyline around the hero saving the nation apart, the movie has plenty of action to thrill fans of the genre. Vidyut is outstanding in the action scenes and blows you off your seat with every punch. Of course, every key scene makes a patriotic statement, at times too loudly, but Vidyut, with his powerful performance, does a great job of making the movie an engaging experience.

The actor has received around three film fare nominations and is considered as one of the more established actors working in the film industry today. It wasn’t an easy start for the actor.

Movies that changed the world

At times, cinema can be both a mirror to the society and a thought-provoking tool. These are some movies which changed the way society thinks drastically. A Girl in the River Directed by Oscar-winner Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, this movie depicted the reality of today’s world and how honour killing is a severe issue in the society of Pakistan. This movie led the Pakistani government to review its laws regarding honour killing. Blackfish This documentary showed how the Orcas are kept in harsh captivity and how it is harmful to their habitat, and this brought a massive change of the Shamu attractions being completely shut down by SeaWorld. The Day After Tomorrow This blockbuster movie had such an accurate description of climate change that it left an impactful print in the minds of governments worldwide which made them work towards climate change countermeasures. Cathy Come Home Director Ken Loach brought the issue of homelessness in the spotlight, which was not acknowledg...

Jayeshbhai Jordaar film Review: Ranveer Singh goes clearly in an ungainly mashup of different issues

  Just before Jayeshbhai acquaints his relatives with us, he draws a somewhat senseless relationship between researchers needing to be aware of Mars and his folks needing to be aware of the orientation of his kid. What's normal between a planet a lady's womb? Indeed, they're both round (gol) in shape. Some Gujju humor to fix the tone and assumptions. Chief Divyang Thakkar gives the disclaimer in the primary scene itself that 'pre-natal sex assurance test is a culpable offense'. Furthermore, the whole reason of   Jayeshbhai Jordaar   is revolved around this. At times a star sparkles most splendid in a characterless film. Ranveer Singh is jordaar and all the more yet even with all his appeal and sincere exertion Jayeshbhai Jordaar is significantly "bore-daar". Unfortunately, honest goals alone rarely make extraordinary movies! The requirement for a male successor is driving Jayeshbhai and his family insane. The pregnant bahu Mudra Ben (Shalini Pandey) is lyi...
