SPECIAL 26 (2013) HINDI MOVIE REVIEW


‘Asli Power toh Script Main Hoti Hai’ ;)



Special 26 had huge expectation because of the director neeraj pandey, his directorial debut a Wednesday won critical acclaim and box office battle. He did not disappoint this time either. In fact he has generated huge expectation for his future ventures. 



Special 26 is crime heist comedy movie. And devoid of any bollywood masala.

The film starts with a relatively slow pace. The introduction of manoj bajpai shifts the gear and movie pick up the pace from here. The lead actors akshay and anupam kher played their character very naturally and both were in superb form. Manoj bajpai  delivers solid performance as usual. Other actors did their part well.

The movies story set in late 80’s. the art department and camera men worked realy hard, that can be seen in each and every scene. BGM and music was apt but nothing extra ordinary. And importantly kudo’s to the casting. They did spot on casting. Each and every actor appearing for smallest role did their part neatly, which is very rare in the Indian movies.

Story and screenplay was sharp and racy in the 2nd half. The romance track and song sequences of akshay and kajal aggarwal was unneccassary. Which slowed down the racy screenplay a bit.
Dialogues were funny and the suspence element was predictable still movie entertains you till last minute. Second half of movie was far better when compared to the little slower first half. The climax was brilliant.
Instead of so called masala movies and their sequels and remakes, we deserve a sequel to this nicely made movie.
Verdict : a decent entertainer, don’t miss it.

Though this band is only 4 album old, they have grabbed limelight of the hard rock arena of current generation, first 3 albums had pure hard rock/ alt rock songs .

What makes them special is the soul in every song which is not so common in most of hard rockers.

Selecting best songs from their 4 albums are difficult coz, they already made many woth listening soulful songs.

Following countdown is a personal view, and it may differ person to person. 

10. Chalk Outline : song from latest album transit of venus though it is not the typical three days grace song, they have experimented and succeed to a extent.

9. Over and Over : fine lyrics and solid guitar riffs makes this song awesome. 

8. Just like you : song from their debut album, three days grace stamp all over it.

7. Animal I have Become :  from the album One X 

6. Bitter Taste : from the album Life Starts Now

5. I Hate Everything About You : from the album Three Days Grace

4. Life Starts Now : from the album Life Starts Now

3. World So Cold : from the album Life Starts Now

2. Pain : from the album One X

1. Never Too Late : from the album One X, its not a hard rock but beatiful lyrics and melody takes this song to the best of three days grace. listen to it and i bet you will agree with me for sure.

This list not included the all the good songs from the band. And release of the future albums may change the positions of the top 10.

P.S : If never heard Three Days Grace then start with Life Starts Now and One X album, each and every song is a gem.
