Bang... Wham... Damn... BIG B rocks... Apoorva Lakhia, the guy who made the utterly forgettable 'Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost' a couple of years with Junior B returns with his latest offering... A film that takes us back to Big B's angry young man days.
EK AJNABEE is a story of Colonel(Big B) a retired army official with a traumatic past. He is called to Bangkok by his friend Arjun Rampal. Here Big B gets the job of a bodyguard for an 8 year old girl, Anamika(Rucha Vaidya). The little girl teaches the traumatised, tensed and frustrated Colonel to live. Life is rosy for the Colonel till the day... the girl is kidnapped.
A fast paced, bullet blasting, face smashing action thriller is just what we wanted from Bachchan Sr. after a series of serious performances. Apoorva Lakhia and his team of writers make sure that EK AJNABEE looks every bit a Big B film. A rocking background score(Amar Mohile) just ensures more thrills, chills and wham-bam-slam pills!
Amitabh Bachchan rocks. He looks red hot and smashing as he chews the scenery with amazing ease. Arjun Rampal is decent. Perizaad Zorabian is amazing in a short but pivotal role. Who really impresses is the little girl Rucha matching upto Big B in all the scenes.
Though the film is a typical revenge drama in the second half, it boasts of an amazing first half. But with all the action and drama and that 70's feel in the second half... we aint complainin either...!
Worth a watch!
My rating: ***1/2
