Review of Gunda

Gunda (1998)
10/10
One of the few Indian movies which are different from any other movie in this world. One of the most entertaining I have ever seen!

This movie stars Mithun, but still is so different from the "Mithun Movies". I quoted that because in "Mithun Movies", its Mithun who has to do everything. Bad people, good people, innocent people, wicked people, each and every one is connected to Mithun and contributes to the script just to create/shape the character that Mithun is playing in the movie. And what happens at the end of such movies is something that the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger aka Terminator, Sylvester Stallon aka Rambo, Sunny Deol aka Sunny Paaji can just dream of. And that is why this movie, Gunda, is so amazing. It doesn't try to focus on any one character, but at the same time makes you pay attention to even the most insignificant character in the movie. Of course, at the end, Mithun changes course of the complete movie, but still the other characters have already done enough to impress the viewers.

People judge movies on many criteria and even the best of movies are lacking in some criteria. But this is one movie which you would rate highly whatever criterion you can think of. To enjoy the movie you don't even need to watch it in one go. Even if you watch the clips, you can enjoy them at the fullest. I wish I could mention dialogues, scenes, characters etc from the movie here in much more detail, but its even better if you watch the movie without knowing any of these. Probably, its going to take a good effort to get a copy of this movie, but if you get it, you are going to have the time of your life watching it!
