This one may well have been hyped beyond belief in India but what's all the fuss about?
The story is pretty lame and is only rescued by some good acting and the star studded line up.
A dangerous terrorist is being transferred to Mumbai but on the way there the convoy is ambushed. Fortunately for the Indian police force the criminal fails to escape so it's time to bring in the second team of hardened cops to finish the job off. Among them is a crooked inspector, a trigger happy rookie and an uninspiring DCP. They are accompanied by two constables.
The team might not like each other's company but when you're up against anyone and everyone it's time to learn to work together.
The job turns out to be rather more dangerous than any of them at first thought and the captive seems to have whole lot of crazy friends in high places.
Director Raj Santoshi is well known for bringing the best out of crew and his films are always eagerly awaited. But in this case despite bucket loads of dosh being spent on it the film fails to reach the quality and standards of some his past ventures.
