Visual delight, amazing performances but a confused storyline

In all, the movie definitely deserves a one-time watch though it is not an exceptional piece of cinema like other Vishal Bhardwaj's film.(more)

Kangana-Shahid-Saif ace in a gorgeous-looking film

Vishal Bhardwaj, caught with the duty to serve two movies in one (an old-school romance and a war thriller), doesn't really do a Casablanca though he does give Rangoon his best shot. Nevertheless, Rangoon comes off as probably 2017's most good-looking and well-made Indian film. Certainly, this year's most ambitious, with three great lead performances. Vishal Bhardwaj is in fine form, mostly. And yes, the National Anthem comes thrice in the film. What more do you want?(more)

LOVE IN THE TIME OF WAR

There's a dialogue in the film where Saif tells a British officer, "We're actors, we know how to convince people." That isn't entirely true here. Borrowing Julia's oft-repeated phrase, Bloody hell�, one wishes these three had truly dropped their guard. It would�ve certainly added more rang to this movie extravaganza(more)

Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor are perfect fits

Modelled on stunt queen Fearless Nadia, Ranaut�s is the stand-out performance. Her body language is spot on, and some of her action sequences are thrilling, even if you can see the computer graphics a mile off. And she gets one spectacular speaking moment, the camera tight on her face, when she speaks of love and desire and heartbreak. It is the kind of moment which will stay with you. Wish I could say the same about the film.(more)

Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor's film fails to pack a punch

Being a period film is another challenge for Rangoon as special effects lack authentication in war scenes. The elaborate costume planning comes to rescue though.(more)

Rangoon is a grand hotchpotch!

Still, nothing sublime about the over-the-top spectacle and phony martyrdom he puts together in its climatic moments and strips Rangoon of whatever dignity its heroes and heroines are striving for. It�s depressing when a man known for creating his own language of cinema speaks street. (more)

Rangoon Movie Review: Much Kangana Ranaut, Such Wow

Rangoon is wholeheartedly recommended but with a rider: it isn't a stroll in the park because it demands patience and concentration. It definitely helps that the cinematography (by Pankaj Kumar) is so lustrous that you simply cannot take your eyes off the screen.(more)
