The Attacks of 26/11

First of all, I don't agree with Rotten Tomatoes 0% rating. Controversial & terrifying concept of "26/11" isn't easy to be made and that also effectively. Yes, this movie could have been more effective but it was still better. Performances of Nana patekar and the guy who played the role of kasab were of next level and they nailed their roles. Overall, its a good movie with a thought provoking conversation. Many people said that this movie is not good but I am sure that no one will not regret watching this.

Any noble intention to bring forward the recount of the bloodcurdling 2008 Mumbai attacks is marred by an over-the-top dramatisation and a facile lecture on religion and holy war.

Could have been so much better. Nana Patekar was the saving grace. Learn how to screw up a movie even after getting potentially explosive topic.Bland.

I found it interesting that western critics claim that 'a better film might have proved cathartic' or called this 'an explotitative docudrama' whilst Indian film critics generally praised the film as a powerful retelling of a horrific event. It speaks to the degree of misunderstanding we have about horrific acts that can occur anywhere around the world. It is an accurate retelling of a terrible event, with powerful performances from Nana Patekar and Sanjeev Jaiswal. This is a Indian film giving an Indian perspective on a horrific event that occured. Rather than castigate the accurate level of violence portrayed, lets try to appreciate the insight into the healing process that many are still going through.

Seeing the killing felt sad and disappointed. A movie to really watch at least once.

It could have been a more interesting story if they had more of a plot and given more of a background on the killers, instead of showing (in gory fashion) each kill. Some of the choreography of the attacks were ill-timed and led to unplanned laughter. Recommended only if you like bloodbaths.

A typical RGV film that depicts the real life tragedy in a (cinematically) tragic way. He tries too hard to make the movie intense, but inadvertently gives it an opposite shape. The close-ups of Nana Patekar were irritating. When there's constant shooting (with blood all around, supposedly to create a shocking atmosphere) & no dialogues, I longed for some dialogues. But when the dialogues came, it didn't turn out to be any better either. The terrorist act was disaster, and so is the movie. Of course, most Indian critics hailed it.

disturbing, but cud've been far better.

it more like a documentary had so many stories to tell but the film gets stuck with the version of the police commissioner. In fact film stops mid way. Attacks in Taj and Oberoi Hotel which were cleared by NSG is not found at all. A film which could have been better
