Movie Review - NEWYORK

hey...
just came back from the multiplex...went to watch NEWYORK, I was just leaving the multiplex when one of my friends was just getting in to watch the same movie...He asked me, "How is NEWYORK"? I just replied, you'll like the movie!!!

So, basically Newyork is take on 9/11 attacks and the story revolves around that, but the thing which is different in this is, it depicts the emotional side of it. it suceeds to an extent in doing that. it gives an insight about how the US held around 1200 people as suspects for the attacks, which they didnt have any evidence and ultimately had to be released....that portion about the torture is shot very accurately, it does create an impact!

The movie is REAL( i mean it) u do relate to the circumstances under which one might take up acts that might be harmful to the society...

Neil does a good job at his role and is convincing as an undercover FBI agent, parts of the conversations shot between him and irrfan are picked up from a video game "Black"....but are effective, he delivers a good performance....katrina and john do a good job too....it seems irrfan is the next Iftekar...seems to play a cop every second movie and seems to master the art of interogating(last time he did this was in slumdog)

music is good and fits the situation perfectly...my fav is the JUNOON track....

overall a good movie, personally I would rate it 3.5 out of 5


so, Take some time off and watch this movie....worth a watch....
