Shabri
Critic reviews and ratings
-
Shabri is quite poignant with scenes oscillating between wordless calm and brutal action: aesthetic and accessible at the same time, even though this is often at the cost of pace.
-
...is not of the level of 'Satya' or 'Company', but it certainly makes its place in the genre of gangster flicks.
-
You may find the pace and storytelling a bit dated, but if you can forgive that, you have a mafia story that’s both gritty and fascinating.
-
...a gritty watch that keeps you fairly engaged.
-
...it's not every day that a heroine gets to grab the limelight on screen in Bollywood.
-
The action is fast-paced, the acting is immensely watchable and Shabri ends up as a stylish debut by director Lalit Marathe.
-
...worth a watch mainly for its brilliant performances and intense plot.
-
...fails to draw enough drama or dread...
-
Even if you are looking forward to a story about a woman gangster, I'd say this isn't something worth getting too excited about.
-
...the film follows a familiar narrative, but never rises above the ordinary.
-
Sure, it holds your attention in parts, but there's no novelty whatsoever in its plot.
-
...earnest though it may be, is not outstanding enough to work as a standalone film.
-
There's the same catatonic acting, the staccato dialogue delivery, the bursts of violence, the over-loud background score, the strange camera angles, the crooked cops and larger-than-life thugs. Perhaps it's time to give the Mumbai gangster genre a rest.
-
Audiences won't find anything new in this movie either. Why bother.
-
There are a few brilliant scenes in the film, which actually tempt you to get involved, but unfortunately the film lacks consistency.
