I love this movie so much

Best movie of this year hands down!

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This is easily one of Bobby Deol's best performances,if not his best performance. This was actually Preity Zinta's first film, though Dil Se was released before this so that was her debut. She has given one of her best performances in this film too. The film is very cleverly made. After a lot of the key moments, there is a song. You can't even fast forward it because you want to be told what happens next and not tell yourself. The climax is brilliant, and you don't expect what happens in the end to happen. The music is great, though the best track has to be, you guessed it, 'Soldier Soldier...'. Another good thing is that you don't know what each character is up to, so some of the events are surprising. The screenplay is great and it has been edited very well. What more can I say? Watch it yourself.Verdict: Unmissable. The films these days very straightforward in comparison; they should make more like this. I give it 9/10

Abbas-Mustan after making hit thrillers like KHILADI(92), BAAZIGAR(1993) and then making flops like DARAAR(1997) came with SOLDIER which did well at the Box OfficeThe plot?Well reminds us of BAAZIGAR wherein they are wrongs being done on Bobby's father.etc The main plot is that Bobby is an assassin who is paid to kill people but actually he plans to seek revenge from the main traitors of our society and kills them slowlyThe film has a done to death yet quite good plot for 1990's but sadly it lacks the edge of seat thriller impact There is too much focus on comedy(Johny Lever and that long haired goon, Sharat Saxena.etc and also romance between Preity and Bobby) it takes almost half the film on that and then the film shifts to an action genre with thrills in between like the death scenes There are also scenes lifted from Hollywood like Bobby entering the building of Sharat Saxena and many more The film does keep you involved in parts but the climax is too filmy and too overdoneDirection by Abbas-Mustan though not as good as BAAZIGAR yet a good film Music is goodBobby Deol changed his image with this film and it suited him sadly he was made to do hammy comic and romance acts in this film too yet he stands out in serious scenes though he looks dull in some emotive scenes Yet a good job, After a dismissal act in GUPT Preity was annoying for her debut and her voice was dubbed by someone else Amongst rest Suresh Oberoi is good, Ashish Vidhyarthi is okay Johny annoys, Sharat Saxena and his son(the usual nonsense actor from AM films) ham it up, Dalip Tahil is adequate Farida and Rakhee are typecast

Abbas-Mustan's first combination with Bobby Deol proved a good result as the movie did quiet well in the box-office in 1998 as a musical thriller. Moreover this was the only movie which competed enough with another romantic blockbuster Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (released one month earlier to Soldier) both in box-office and in musical score. This technically advanced movie changed the views and appetite of watching action movies in the Bollywood industry in many ways. The director duo know very well to use the hidden talent of Bobby Deol for action movies. Before this, his last hit was Gupt-The Hidden Truth that was released almost a year earlier. Soldier is basically a story about a boy taking revenge against the culprits who killed his father when he was small. He prepared himself well and step by step he fulfilled his desire to revenge the murderer of his father. The location and sceneries of Australia and New Zealand in the movie are highly aesthetic and worth watching. Lastly, Soldier showed that India also can produce such highly technically advanced movies with its own systems and processes.

This is another one of Abbas-Mustan's big budget action packed suspense thrillers casting Bobby Doel and Prity Zinta. This movie is about a young man on a mission to find his father's killers who have become successful businessmen in Australia. This movie will leave you on the edge of your seat as the story takes new turns as it goes on. Mostly filmed on location in Australia and New Zealand, it is beautifully photographed and shows mind blowing scenery. It's really good entertainment overall and I would recommend it to anyone.
