Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
elshikh4 This is not (Amar Akbar Anthony) part 2, or a remake of it either. In fact (Naseeb) can't be compared to it in the first place. Yes, there is the same winning formula with even more merits. But sorry, it didn't hit the mark that the previous movie did.Back then (Manmohan Desai) was on the top of his game. Here, he made a complicated plot, as usual, with the same went-to-crime deeply-good father, the same variant but brave lost-and-found sons, again love stories for the 3 sons, bad guys (numerous this round), comedy, music, action, a final song where the sons meet, masquerade and dance before beating up the badies, and most of all a celebration of the power of faith, unity and the main 3 religions of India. All of that was clear in the original. Now it's played all over again, with just different names and characters, more actors and money. The thing is, I felt less.The movie is 197 minutes another (Desai) masala epic. Entertaining? Yes, but lighter than (AAA). (Shatrughan Sinha) is the worst third member for (Amitabh Bachchan) and (Rishi Kapoor) heroic league. He's so heavy on screen, see the way he dances to feel the horror. He – of course – has no comic talent. And he was older than his role, being 6 years younger than his father in the movie (Amjad Khan) ! (God forgive Vinod Khanna, the third brother of Bachchan and Kapoor in AAA, who was nominated for the role but couldn't accept it since he took a break from films). The gangster movie within the movie was weak and a bit forced. Yet nothing more pathetic than the melodrama. Watch the character of (Pran)'s sister to have a loud laugh; heck, the respectable masala never treated any character that bad before. The scriptwriter should be ashamed of himself !It tries to look dazzling visually more than dramatically. Shooting abroad, having tons of cameos at the party scene, the sniper sequence (one of the most marvelous ever), and the aflame tower action at the end, were some of the ways. It has sparkling image and vivacious pace. However, it's polished with not much of a soul. I had open eyes, and no teary ones. It exemplifies the astonishing extravaganza more than any effective suffering or well-made melodrama, despite the scene of sacrificing, beside the Christ statue, for the sake of friendship which was the sole moment where this movie had a heart. See, that's why the less lavish (AAA) surpasses.Notice well how most of the movie's songs are being performed through parties or shows, how most of the cameos are for the stars as themselves, celebrating their stardom, and how (Amitabh Bachchan) breaks the fourth wall, talking to us, many times to understand that it's a big ostentatious party of the commercial Indian cinema and all its stars at the 1980s start. And you know what the best part is? You're invited. So for me the grand party scene, where that crowd of stars gather on one screen, is the best of the movie, or rather the movie itself. Before and after that it's pale and hasty repetition of a better original. (John Jani Janardhan) and (Mere Naseeb Mein) are great classics. They are 2 of the reasons why we'll always cherish that era and those movies. While these 2 songs, along with the party scene, get a 10, the movie itself gets a 7. Dear (Desai) used to bedeck his movies with fireworks. This time he made the whole movie out of many flashy fireworks, only.
huma nwab One of the best film of Amitabh. He is super in it and as far as cast many stars appear in song John Johny janardan. Other cast of the film are hema, Shru,Rishi, Tina, and reena roy. Amit plays the character of a poor waiter in a hotel and then he also wrestles too. Hema is playing character of a model and on a tour to London for shooting when she meets Mr. Sinha he falls for her but hema is beloved of Amit so things goes right wrong because Amit, and Shatru r two friends on other hand the story has Reena Roy liking but its one side love. Rishi also has done good and tina has done good too. Music is lovely and its a masala film that keeps u wake and the music is amazing. To find what movie is u have to check out on DVD.
husnain ali Basically,I think that if the actors and actresses are good performers the whole film ends up being good and as part of this film it has the best actors and actresses that can perform great.Amitabh Bachchan,Hema Malini,Rishie Kapoor,Shatrughan Sinha,Reena Roy,Rishie kapoors wife in the film,Kader Khan,Shakti Kapoor,Amrish Puri,Amjad Khan,Jeevan,Prem Chopra and everyone else.Naseeb has the right time to be funny and the right time to be emotional.Naseeb was a perfect film and had a mixture of meanings such as Friendship,love,sacrifice and being poor but being patient.I love the part at the end when they are in the hotel and they fight like mad.
omarhussaini Sure it's a great movie -- if you don't have a brain! The writers take way too many liberties with the plot. Nothing in this movie is realistic or plausible. Now I know you're probably thinking it's a movie and it's not supposed to be realistic...Give me a break. Of course it's a movie but how would you like it if Superman suddenly started to shoot web out of his wrists. Or Spiderman morphed into the Hulk. Some things just shouldn't happen! There is a scene here where one of the heroines is reading the villains' lips when they're backs are turned towards her. Also when Kader Khan realizes the true identity of who "Don" is, it's just not believable. He couldn't make the connection that fast - if in fact he were to make the connection at all. Also why the hell does Sinha marry Reena Roy? He doesn't love her and I thought that's what Bollywood films are about. On the plus side the actors all deliver for the most part. Amitabh and Rishi Kapoor nail down their roles. Shatrughan Sinha is just - weird. Amjad Khan and Amrish Puri are both really good. Of the woman Hema Malini's easily the best while Kimi Katekar is just horrible. The songs are really good as are the action sequences although the last one is a clear rip-off of the Towering Inferno and goes too long. Some Multi-starrers are made because the director wants to make a great movie (such as Amar Akbar Anthony) while others like this one are made to take your money. Coincidentally both of these movies are made by Manmohan Desai and there are many things about this one that tell you that it was supposed to be a sort of sequel to Amar Akbar Anthony (i.e. Amitabh's drunk scene in front of the mirror, two of the three heros play the same roles they did in the earlier movie, the actor who plays Dabisco also played Dabisco in the first one, Pran's character, the whole three heroes three heroines deal). The film definitely is a good one and I liked it as such ( 6 or 7 out of 10), but it certainly isn't great and didn't deserve to become the top Bollywood film of the 80s. But then again with the quality of Bollywood films you never know.
