Kaabil (2017)
8/10
Kaabil: An action thriller with its lead actor as its heart and brain.
29 April 2018
KAABIL is a well made action thriller. It's very interesting to see a blind man (played wonderfully by Hrithik Roshan) seek revenge in an unusual, unexpected, fun way. It's not a film to be judged critically since it's just a fun action movie with plenty of thrilling twists and turns in the plot.

Hrithik is the first and foremost reason why KAABIL works so well. Every other actor does a decent job, but he delivers his career's best performance. There's one emotionally intense scene in the first half in which you wish to cry along with him. He never makes you feel he is able to see anything with his eyes.

The action sequences are stylish and thrilling to watch, while the dialogues and emotional scenes too are excellent.

KAABIL is not without its share of flaws. The first half is a bit slow when it comes to the basic theme of the film. In the second half, the songs create hindrance.

But the climax definitely takes you by surprise, and you need to see it to believe it.

KAABIL is an entertaining action thriller. Watch it if you still haven't.
