Wazir is one of the shortest duration bollywood movies to have been released in the recent times at 103 minutes.
The movie is about an ATS officer and a chess master and has its share of twists. The story and screenplay are well written which keep the events going at a good pace through the movie. The story by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and the screenplay co-written by Abhijat Joshi, is brisk in pace. Though the twists provided in the movie were easy to figure out by the mid of the movie, but it did not dampen interest for the movie. The movie keeps you glued with one trying to figure out what is going to happen next. There are hardly any songs in the movie, which is a good thing as the movie has a serious mood. The few songs that play at the background help provide the movie it's mood.
Farhan Akhtar as the ATS officer and Amitabh Bachchan as the chess master play their characters very well. The other actors like John Abraham, Neil Nitin Mukesh and others have a small role in the movie. Even in their small roles they have lent credibility to the movie. If the roles of John and Neil could have been lengthened, the movie would have had a larger audience. Even with just 2 main characters the movie is nothing short of interesting, which is a great testament to the story writing prowess of Vidhu Vinod Chopra.
Bejoy Nambiar as the director has done a good job at directing the movie. The movie is crisp and well edited which make the audience glued to their seats. The dialogues are well written, but they have been delivered even better by the actors, which makes the dialogues a high point of the movie.
Overall the movie is a good watch because of the actors. One can certainly go and watch this movie once, but it does not call for a second watch since the mysteries are already unravelled.
Rating - 3 / 5
