CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

cellar_door__ I watched this film with high hopes and as a big fan of Irrfan Khan, but am afraid to say that this is the biggest pile of garbage I have seen in a long while and feel that I have been robbed of my time.The plot line is an outrageous, piecemeal, predictable mess, which left me feeling unfulfilled and irritable. The sound was equally awful and had me thinking back to viewings of the stunningly bad 'Fun 2 Shh: Dudes in the 10th Century'. The score was disjointed and out of place, not my cup of tea at all.The only saving grace was Irrfan Khan, who's exquisite acting skills were unfortunately eclipsed by the truly dreadful writing and direction. All in all, worth a look if this is your sort of thing, but for me this is one of the worst films out of India in 2005. Abysmal.

hriday123 I never ever noticed Irfan until I saw this movie! I knew him for his voice and now I know him for his acting! He is brilliant, he really rocks, all u see is Irfan. However, everything else is same like other Indian movie. There is good suspense thought. You will surely love this movie with pint of beer on your sofa and at good wet evening with rain !! As all know he is one of the best unnoticed actor in Indian cinema this time he came with some good show off!I am sure you will enjoy this movie as long as you like Irfan and you ignore some aspects of movie!Have a pint of beer and enjoy Irfan! If Irfan is reading this comment by any chance, let me tell you that you are one of the best one we have~!

Aam Aadmi One of the earliest-released films of 2005, it tried to cash in early on the country's new-found craving for 'Chamdi' (flesh).Written by Mahesh Bhatt, it was directed by Himanshu Brahmbhatt (who?) and produced by Puja Bhatt. Looks like the entire extended Bhatt family -- Chacha-Chachi, Mama-Mami, Dada-Nani, Mausi, Padosi AND Bhatiji, were involved in SOME way or another with this project.So what was the finished product like? Oh my god, don't ask (tsk tsk). Such a fine talent, no? So all wasted no? They thought as long as Apri Pooja Ni Phillum Chhe, Su Chhe, Saru Chhe, Badha Maja-Maa Mast Chhe!!Except for M M Kreem's music, there is nothing worth mentioning about this sorry skin flick. Watch only if there's nothing else to do.

shariqq Father-Daughter Bhatt have embarked on a mission to ensure Film-Noir is a set genre for Bollywood audience. Jism, Murder and a few other movies of theirs are adaptations of Hollywood movies from years ago. ROG is one of the better movies they have produced, and most of it's credit goes to a brilliant performance by Irfan Khan. I am not exaggerating when I say he is the worthy successor to Naseeruddin Shah in the ease with which he slips into any role he portrays. This movie follows the murder investigation of a beautiful model, Maya Solomon, by 'super-cop' Inspector Uday Rathore (Khan) who suffers from mild-insomnia. While conducting the investigation and piecing together the past of the model, the cop starts falling in love with the image of the dead woman; all the while trying to find her killer. With a cast of a few extras (including a loud 'accented' confused-desi), none of the other performances are worth note. Yet, the movie itself is well made (a proper script, whoa!) with a beautiful score (M.M Kreem) and a brilliant lead performance. The twists (save one) are a little predictable, but the presentation is a revelation for a low-budget Indian movie. Kudos to the director Himanshu Brahmbhatt for a job well done (he is Mahesh Bhatt's AD from the Gumrah & Sadak). If nothing, the movie is worth for the Irfan Khan alone. I have set myself up to watch any movie this man stars in. Oh, and the music is awesome.My Rating ---> 2.5 of 5 Trivia: * Irfan Khan is the same titular 'The Warrior' from Asif Kapadia's epic English movie (which I thought was very slow). * M M Kreem insists on proper poets to pen lyrics for his songs, else he doesn't compose music. (Never expect a 'David Dhawan' song from him). * This movie is a remake of Laura (1944)
