Wordiezett So much average

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Anirudha Bhattacharjee Bullet was a slick production from the house of Vijay Anand. Made to celebrate the silver jubilee of Navketan, this film had all ingredients for a nice, entertaining thriller. Definitely one of Dev Anands sane films, as most of his films have bordered on the juvenile.Dharam Dev (Dharam Dev Anand) is a police office who is on the trails of conman DP, played by Kabir Bedi. DP is a sly businessman who sells company shares to public promising the sky. In reality the shares are decoys as the company is actually bankrupt and has no business to back the promises made to the public and the financiers.Dev hires the services of DP 's secretary Sapna (Parveen Babi), who in turn falls for him , but plans to move out once she finds out that Dev is a policeman. But after getting a view of the real picture of the future of the shares, she extends help to Dev as she senses that the public is being taken for a big ride.DP too has aces up his sleeve. He gets Dev jailed on account of a fabricated drunk on duty charge, and later, with the help of his mistress, generates a master plan to rake in millions and eliminate Dev totally by getting him framed on a murder and ransom charge.Now it is up to Dev to try and exonerate himself and pin the actual mastermind behind all the ploys Good, catchy music by Rahul Dev Burman adds to the color of the film.Bullet is a well made film. Pity it was ahead of its time in content and treatment.

aally_v This was probably Dev Anands last sane movie. He went flat out into loud, vulgar 70s mode after Bullet. A real pity because Dev saab was & is a great actor. Dev had long been the king of the thriller genre & Bullet adds a notable feather to his well decorated cap.He plays CID officer Dharam Dev hot on the heels of DP ( Kabir Bedi). DP realising Devs on his case frames him on a drunken drivingcase.On Devs release from jail he sets off on DPs chase with even more gusto only for DP to frame him on a Kidnapp/Murder charge.With all clues leading to Dev, he must convince his junior officer Rakesh Roshan of his innocence & of Dps guilt.Dev Anand was at his very best, calm & restrained. Bedi is suave & charming as the villain, probably his best bollywood role. Parveen Babi as Devs girlfriend looks gorgeous whilst Rakesh Roshan plays his part well.This was amongst the best movies of the 70s & a must for bollywood 70s afficionados!
