Such a frustrating disappointment

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Each time I watch this and as it gets older and older, I happen to come to admire this classic more and more, a lot of which though can be put down to myself being a huge fan of Sanjay Dutt and quite an admirer of Hrithik Roshan too (his best film in my opinion. Awesome performance by him!). I know people have this habit of over-rating things from the past, but in my opinion there is no match at all between this and the one in 1990. This classic is a story of blood and flames, of emotions and vengeance, respect and hatred, above all, immense brutality. This beats any of the million Bollywood films, particularly made in the 1980s and 1990s, that revolve around the hero wanting to avenge his father's killing.From Vijay to Gaitonde sahib to Kaali to Lala Rauf, everyone was brilliant but a special mention should go to Kaancha. What a stunning performance! It goes down as one of the best performances ever in the negative roles. His reciting the Bhagavad Geeta throughout the film and coming up with his own twisted interpretations itself was a unique idea that added so much to his role, coupled with the way he looked. Can't help but think that his role was somewhat inspired from the historical description and depiction of the Pharaoh who opposed Prophet Moses. Just a thought.....As for the emotions aspect, not too many scenes would touch you as much as the the scene from this film does when Shiksha visits Vijay for the first time to meet him, and then that brilliant song "Abhi mujh mey'n kahi'n..... " Truly depicts in a great way as if Vijay had found his world.The 'Agneepath' poem by Harivansh Rai Bachchan is such an inspirational one that I couldn't resist basing one of my own poems upon it, titled as "Walk in the sunshine." So I have got bit of a personal attachment too with this film due to that.If I had to come back to the film from 1990, I don't want to go into any deeper details given that the review by itself is about the 2012 film, but in short I would just add that I felt really annoyed and irritated with the way Amitabh Bachchan spoke in the film, and the same applies to Mithun Chakraborty's role - a South Indian Pathan (considering his background shown and the way he talked)! Kaancha's role however in that too was well performed by Danny Denzongpa, who was in general a very good actor. The mere look on his face made him look like a villain.

Perfect movie..What can I say . A masterpiece Must watch Yaar.It is a heart touching movie with beautiful songs & The item song was superb. After Mission k Hrithik Roshan & Sanjay Dutt worked again together & they rocked !! They were perfect Rishi too. All of them & Karan Johar obviously made a fantastic movie. We need this type of movies .Priyanka Chopra was so cute in the movie she definitely look gr8t with Hrithik. I LOVE THIS MASTERPIECE. Karan Johar u're marvelous thank U They deserve so many kisses and hugs with this job. Hope they will work together again they'll show us another Movie like that.Can't understand people who doesn't loves this movie I can't believe it.they're very weird anyway If u don't see Agneepath Yet.watch it right now

What was the director thinking when they made this BS and released it to public. The film is dark and gloomy. It looks like the skies were full of dark clouds all the time and as such there was no enough light for you to be able to see the faces properly. Acting, story is awful. Priyanka Chopra just cannot keep her mouth shut and I mean it literally. In the end, first Sanjay Dutt beats the crap out of Rithik Roshan and Rithik makes no attempt to save himself or attack. And then the reverse. Rithik beats Sanjay Dutt and it feels like Sanjay Dutt is now too tired to even want to stand lest fight. And why does the Vijay's mother go to the police station to tell about Surya? PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON THIS CRAP.

The generation that grew up on the ORIGINAL "Agneepath" starring Amitabh Bachchan, Danny D, Mithun knows that USP of that movie were dialogues written by Kader Khan and not the plot, the plot was primarily lifted from "Scarface" starring Al Pacino. Only mistake Dharma Productions made while re-making the movie was not hiring Kadar Khan to re-write the dialogues again. This is not a judgment on the acting or making of the new version, but just a fans observation. The dialogues of the original are still talked about and remembered like dialogues of "Sholay" or "Sharaabi". I don't think someone who watched the NEW "Agneepath" will remember the dialogues of the movie two hours after they are done watching it.
