The over-the-top dialogues could have been a tad more subtle, but considering the pan-India audience, we suppose we can be lenient here. The action sequences are executed perfectly and keep you on your toes.

The script beats around the bush a bit too much, and except for a few scenes (the climax scene in the court and the encounter itself), most of the movie is a snooze fest.
