Review: Rustom


Director: Dharmendra Suresh Desai
Writer: Vipul K. Rawal
Stars: Akshay Kumar, Ileana, Esha Gupta.

Commander of the Indian navy is accused of murdering his wife's lover when he finds out she cheated on him. It gets interesting when the officer pleads not guilty. whats the hidden story? is he guilty? that's the story.

Good:
Let me say it first and foremost I loved the movie, it is nothing short of brilliant.

• Akshay kumar. This man has been doing brilliant movies lately, and Rustom is one of those. His acting, his expression, specially when he finds out about his wife's affair, reads the letters, and then couldn't understand what just happened, priceless!! His character is a true gentleman, and Akshay did it brilliantly.
• Ileana is amazing. I personally am not a Fan of hers, but this time she has really outdone herself.
• The story is amazing if you don't compare it to 'The Nanavati case" and it shouldn't be compared.

Bad:

There is not much you can dislike about the movie, but like any movie it has a few minor flaws. Like:

• It is supposed to be a serious court room drama, but in the curt room, there is an overall non-serious attitude. I don't know what they were trying to achieve, but it didn't go well for me. The prosecution lawyer is always objecting and is funny in his behavior, plus the judge is joking around with the lawyer, and everyone is clapping, I didn't care for all that "comedy?" they tried to shove in a serious court room drama.
