Test of strength and strength. It has long been known that in the gambling industry, the winner is not the one who plays, but the one who arranges these competitions. No casino will work if its profits do not exceed the costs. It doesn’t make sense because it’s business and nothing else. And the players who bet their last savings in the hope of multiplying them are just cash cows. Some of them are given to win and sometimes quite impressive amounts, but it is necessary in order for other representatives of the herd to escape to the crack of roulette and rustling cards. Some optimistic people will say that there is some luck. This statement is going to confirm or refute the uncrowned king of the gambling world Karim Musa/Sanjay Dutt. Around the world, he gathers the most successful players and offers them a competition in which the stakes will be not only money, but also life. The rules are designed so that one skill and professionalism can not do.
Knowing how it can, and most likely will, any normal person would refuse, but the amazing thing is that almost everyone agrees to play. For some, this is the last chance, someone just does not like to think about the consequences. But most are eager to try their luck and prove that fortune will turn to them today. Happy owners of constant luck do not think about why their world is woven with continuous victories. They can do absolutely anything they want. It seems as if an angel came down from heaven specifically for them to ward off trouble. Next to such people comfortable and profitable, but the trials on the edge of the abyss can not continue forever. The lover of gambling Kareem Musa is well replenished with cash reserves, but what he possesses is soon catastrophically lacking. Everyone behaves differently, but they have one task - to stay alive. How will the participants of cruel entertainment manifest themselves, and who will face in the final match?
Directors of films of this genre, use many methods to attract the viewer, there is probably everything ... and saturated in some episodes of the color scheme, and hopeless grayness, and animated objects around us. The idea was successful, I watched until the very end. The impression is strange, on the one hand, the film gave a lot of positive, it was pleasant to look at cheerful, endlessly smiling people, there were hints that life is not always good, but all this positive was presented so strongly that you do not pay attention to the “dark tunnels”. And then head on the wall, bam! I didn't expect such a sharp turn. No need to dig deep, in my opinion the meaning is at the top. This is our life in all its manifestations, it can give us everything - health, wealth, happiness with a loved one, but can at one moment take it all, or send such trials that not everyone will withstand them. This is a parody of our world, where everything material comes first. If you want to live, pay, come to God to pay, you want to pay something more. Everything. The most memorable thing for me in the film is the phrase uttered by the Musa - . The longer you try your luck, the stronger it becomes. I was horrified! This is a very original solution to tie human life and health to the outside world. The final was not a surprise to me, about what I expected.
The actors are great. Mithun here is absolutely amazing I have no words. I love him in age roles, he's not like when he was young, but he's great as ever. You can't take your eyes off. And this signature look of his is a little underhanded always beats me to the ground, and a smile just blows the roof off. Bravo. And other than Flawless, his work is unnamed. Every movement, every word, every gesture, everything is in its place and in its time. Is there any doubt? At Mithun so always and in everything.
Sanjai has also struck here. I like him better in his early films, I didn’t watch much of his age-related work, but here he’s unmatched. What energy is in it, such a flurry of emotions that it seems that all this flow is now spilling out through the screen. Best role of Sajay from his later films.
Well, there is never a single claim to Denny Denzongpa. Always 100%, if a villain, you want to strangle with your own hands, if a positive hero, it is impossible to come off, if such a role is like here, then there are simply no words except “Super!”
I don’t know the young actors, I saw them for the first time, but the guy who played Rama, Imran Khan, if I’m not mistaken, really liked it. Even more, incredibly liked, surprised. With no armed eye you can see his huge acting potential and talent. Well done, so reliable, high-quality and piercing. Well done.
I didn’t remember the girls to be honest, for me they just went in the background in the film, somehow left no trace in the soul. In addition to Shortcut, very bright girl, just a star, very pleased.
Damn it, I was in a chair, chewing my fingers out of anxiety, especially in the episode with the sea, when they picked up the keys to the locks. In terms of energy in terms of emotions, this is the strongest moment of the film.
Not everyone can test luck for strength, but what is there, it is available only to units that carry the proud title of Lucky. You can't argue with that. As the character Denny Denzongpa said, Tamang: "Luck favors only those who go to victory without fear and want to win with all their heart"! I agree with him 1000%. This is a very powerful movie, watch it.
