BABY MOVIE MOVIE

Thankfully, itРІР‚в„ўs short and quickly abandoned, so weРІР‚в„ўre thrown right back into a cocktail of chase scenes, intrigue and espionage. ThereРІР‚в„ўs not a dull moment here, save for one hopelessly horrible song in an equally awful love track (Pandey did the same in Special 26 as well). ItРІР‚в„ўs quite refreshing to see a film that caters to its target audience and at least tries to not insult it. ThereРІР‚в„ўs some interesting hand-to-hand combat, and Pandey somehow manages to balance the grittiness and realism balance the masala of commercial films. This is a mainstream film, but there is no slow-mo bullet time rubbish. Our hero sticks to the mission instead of veering out for item numbers and even though heРІР‚в„ўs larger than life, he remains in a fairly realistic mode. What mainly works here is the sense of urgency. Also in the mix is a nutty, India-bashing, hate-spewing Mullah Maulana Mohammad (played by Pakistani actor Rasheed Naz), a not so subtle derivation of LeTРІР‚в„ўs Zaki ur Rehman Lakhwi.Р”В«aby ups the body count and delivers the goods when it comes to gritty action, non-stop thrills, mood and style. AjayРІР‚в„ўs hunt for Bilal takes him (and us) through seedy streets in Bombay, the bylanes of Turkey, the mountains of Nepal, and the desert sands of Saudi Arabia. The film chronicles BabyРІР‚в„ўs final mission, starring Akshay Kumar as Ajay whoРІР‚в„ўs hunting down Kay Kay MenonРІР‚в„ўs Bilal Khan, an escaped terrorist. Feroze tells us that Baby has been the most successful force against Pakistan-based terrorism, and since 2008, has dismantled several terrorist attacks in India. WeРІР‚в„ўre brought up to speed with the help of a grave and grim voiceover by Danny Denzongpa who plays Feroze Ali Khan, the chief of a super-secret-undercover-counter-intelligence-rapid-action-surveillance-savvy-first encounter-assault recon-I-spy-antiterrorist unit named Baby.

This is probably Pandey pulling the prank that the Coen brothers did in Fargo, but more on that later.

ItРІР‚в„ўs also a rare piece of event cinema - because how many Akshay Kumar movies turn out to be anything besides awful?Р”В«aby is supposedly based on real life missions and characters, but the disclaimer before the movie mentions that all characters and events in the film are fictitious. Sure, most of the plot points in Baby come dangerously close to the utter stupidity found in films like Holiday, but itРІР‚в„ўs very entertaining. And Pandey does it in such style and a breakneck pace that one can't help but enjoy the ride. His latest venture Baby is another perfectly outlandish and white-knuckled action thriller - a seemingly intelligent but mindless piece of well-oiled escapism that delivers several crowd-pleasing moments of action mayhem. They have reasonably realistic depiction of police work and ludicrous РІР‚Вholy cow that was awesomeРІР‚в„ў thrills. His films donРІР‚в„ўt have clueless idiots with walkie talkies pretending to be commandoes.

Director Neeraj PandeyРІР‚в„ўs films are a mixture of old school Bollywood formula, slick modern execution and bouts of intense suspense with some bombastic, social commentary.
