The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
RGV is known as the Boss of Underworld films of course this is earlier not anymore. D was a prequel to his COMPANY(2002) which he directed, this is directed by his assistant Vishram Sawant. The film is similar to COMPANY, it tells a similar story we have seen before, and sadly offers nothing new. However it's well handled, the film starts off with Randeep returning to India from Dubai where he worked as a mechanic, it moves a good brisk pace, it does have all standard RGV ingredients, thankfully not much excessive camera angles or background score something which haunts most of his recent films.Direction is good Background Music is goodRandeep Hooda who marked his foray as a solo hero after playing a small role in Monsoon Wedding, he plays the character,Ajay played in Company, he follows Ajay's style of acting too, which is apparent in many of his other films but yet leaves a huge impact Ruksar is okay,Yashpal Sharma, Sushant Singh are all fab, though they played such roles before, Goga Kapoor is good, rest mostly regulars of RGV are as usual, Chunky Pandey reprises his role from TEZAAB but thankfully is not loud here and does a good job,Isha Koppikar too is good
The movie has been shot well and goes in line with the story line. Whole subject is kept serious as this is a thriller. Randeep has been best with his attitude and his showcase as a gangster. Movie shows no non sense stuff.I would rate this as a must watch for some who like COMPANY, once upon a time in Mumbai, This movie is a bet. Finally this guys dint made much of his time during 2000-2010, but looks like some in the mumbai industry finally caught with the talent and his acting.But now, after Ram Gopal Varma's "Satya" and "Company", after Mahesh Manjrekar's "Vaastav" and Hansal Mehta's "Chhal"? Nah, gives us this day our daily break... Enough about unwashed men washing their conscience in the blood of the slain. Enough of this swivel-and-snarl routine with blood-red eyes, slurring speech and smoking guns.In places "D" glamorizes violence with disdainful words and crackerjack visuals to a point where you wonder whom the script supports.
Ram Gopal Verma strikes gold once again as debuting Randeep Hooda stars in this absolutely breathtaking movie! Full marks to the acting of Randeep, Chunkey Pandey and the others. Good music too although the editing and directing is not up to the mark. A story highlighting the success of a middle-class man in the dark side of society. From a mechanic in Dubai to a gangster in Mumbai, D portrays the idealism and expressions of an average-Joe in the underworld. Jealousy, suspicion, murder ....... this movie has everything. The background score and the only 3 songs in it gets the audience enthralled. Rumours have it that this movie actually depicts how the International Don Dawood Ibrahim came to power.Overall, a must watch for RGVs fans.
I agree in most part with the first review especially when comparing it to other movies from the RGV production house. Unless watched as a prequel to 'Company', it stands a little feebly with a mixture of actors, script, storyline and direction borrowed from it's fantastic predecessors. Otherwise it's an interesting prologue to a more complete and fulfilling story. I think the movie improves in the last third with excellent plot development and gritty twists, and the finale is well-worth waiting for.Having loved 'Satya', 'Company' and 'Ab Tak Chappan', maybe I was expecting too much from the same genre and was a little disappointed. Try again some other time methinks, rather differently perhaps for a fresher approach.
