Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
DrRaj2012 If I would be in jury, I would have given all major awards to this superbly created gem.its beyond award actually.i started to watch this movie in 2008 first, then at least once in 5 or 6 months I watched it, again n again alone or with friends n whom I told or requested to watch n feel this movie.i changed mobile , computer, now tablet, but I restored this single movie with me.i challenge that no business minded men will like this movie, because they think by mind n money, this film is for whom who has heart which beats for human and can feel all untold story and feelings of poor, minors,and each and every person in pain n trouble. Hope I could work with Anurag kashyap with my many stories which would certainly change the film making style and Indian cinema will be well watched n discussed in all over the world not only in UK, USA n some cis countries n not only by NRIs.thanks for this movie. Waiting for my show.....
Sourav Roy Indian films are rarely based on books, and they heavily account for their bad screenplay. Anurag Kashyap's Black Friday tries to portray everything the way it actually happened in Mumbai blasts, or at least as the book says it happened, and succeeds! Unlike most other films of this genre, this film does not hype terrorism, or romanticize the darkness of Bombay, or the coldness of its police- but portrays exactly what happened in reality. The usage of actual news footage of the events add realism to the tale. It takes courage to take names of some of the biggest name in underworld and Indian politics as bluntly, and the filmmaker shows that courage.The story doesn't point finger on any particular person, group or community as the culprit for what is still Indian crime history's biggest tragedy. It gives a strong message, right on face- the terror, the attacks, the explosions, the riots inhales not any particular community but the whole humanity.
ankitnarayanmathur This is one of the best examples of class beating direction & execution from the Indian movie industry! Extremely distinguished, from the other "bollywood" movies. Fantastic OST. Requires that the audience be aware & understanding of the backdrop of this movie. The fact that it is based on true events makes it even more emotional & powerful. This film should be considered as a representative of our film industry.It gets a 10/10 from me!Hope Anurag Kashyap makes more of such movies!Ankit
bluefoxniner It saddens me that posters on this thread have the need to brand this as a 'bollywood' movie. the brilliance that is ' black Friday' is so far,far,far removed and so many million times better than any of the dross that conventional ' bollywood' could ever even HOPE to produce makes 'bollywood' a throughly inappropriate branding for ' black Friday'.for me, 'black Friday' is paving the way for what Indian cinema *should* be doing more of....that is, challenging it's audience and offering some intellectual stimulation.I realise that the Indian cinema public's demand is overwhelmingly for ' boy meets girl, boys long lost brother/best friend also loves the same girl, they have a fight, then they realise they are brothers and engage in a 30 minute dance recital', type of bullshit, but Indians are becoming more sophisticated and I for one cannot wait for the more serious and discerning productions to come from India that truly challenges the mind and senses.'Black Friday' in this regards represents a HUGE turning point for Indian cinema.don't miss it..it's a must see movie on so many levels.
