(Crisp) Movie Review: ATTACK – PART 1 by FENIL SETA

Attack – Part 1 is the story of India’s and the world’s first super soldier. This whole concept and certain scenes remind one of several Hollywood films. Yet, it’s a watchable fare. The first half is entertaining and the way John turns into the super soldier is worth watching. And it’s explained in a mass-friendly manner. The Parliament attack track starts well and raises the tension level. A few scenes here are very convenient though. The finale is underwhelming and the makers should have been a little more imaginative here. Speaking of performances, John Abraham is in a very fine form after a long time. He gives it all and one can see that he’s enjoying playing the part. Jacqueline Fernandez is lovely in a small role. Rakul Preet Singh puts up a great act. Both the heroines have a crucial part and are not mere eye candy in the movie. Elham Ehsas is okay as the villain. Prakash Raj is excellent, as always. Ratna Pathak Shah is great but vanishes after a point. Rajit Kapur is decent. All in all, Attack – Part 1 is a timepass action entertainer and worth watching once.

My rating – *** out of 5!
