D-Day is a a good Bollywood action movie. After a while, a good Indian action movie has been released. But, the first rule of an action movie is, NO EMOTION. Movie goers are not that naive anymore. Emotion is not NEEDED in every movie now. The plot is good, except for the end. It is somewhat relevant and believable too. It just falls short of being a perfect actin movie.
This movie shows us lifestyles of anti terror agents and sacrifices they make for their country.
It somewhat follows the theme of A Wednesday, that enough is enough, and action against terrorists has to be taken. I loved the different ways in which the storyline was projected. We start at the halfway mark of the movie and then it is shown to us how the movie reached till there. Also, while they plan to attack, Dawood Ibrahim's house during the wedding, plot formation had been visualised in the movie.
This is Nikhil Advani's second good film after 'Kal Ho Na Ho'. Arjun Rampal, Irrfan Khan and Huma Qureshi and Aakash Dahiya performed really well as the four agents of RAW. I felt Dawood Ibrahim's character played by Rishi Kapoor was very weak and it could have been done better, both in terms of character formation and acting.
This movie keeps you on the edge waiting too know what would happen next.
There are many faults in the movie. One of them was that such a huge operation like the 'Operation Goldman' just could not have been planned and carried out in 40 days. Pakistani ISI/Goverment are not fools to allow such easy takedown of the world's No.2 Wanted Person.
I really liked the concept [though borrowed from Hollywood] of using songs as a background score and not just for keeping a song, and the whole sing dance routine.
Rest assured, the movie doesn't bore you. Go watch it.
P.S - Still don't get why Dawood Ibrahim never removes his shades. And one more thing I noticed, even though every single person watching the movie know who it is about, it is not a debatable topic to discuss.
My rating 7.3/10
