It is, atleast in Bombay.

I liked this film even though my experience was marred by New Empire's malfunctioning sound system where only 2 of the 7 channels seemed to be working, a real bummer in a film which relies on sound to create much of its tension. It was particularly evident in the songs, all of which sounded like acapellas with the enthusiastic bongo drummer and guitar player rendered mute even as they are shown to shred their way to glory. The inadequacies of the lead singer in the "rock" song are blatantly exposed in the absence of guitar and drum parts. Ravi's commentary on the missing sound segments proved as temporary hearing aids as I tried to imagine stuff like sound of a stone rolling from right to left back channel, man screaming as his head is being pummelled, phone ringing etc.

Kay Kay was fantastic and the difference between him and all the other actors in the film really showed. The film itself was nicely paced and doesn't use any time wasting tactics like songs or romantic tracks or silly family stuff. It sticks to the point and gets out as soon as it's made it. It does have its limitations which have been covered in the review.

Will probably catch it again in a good theater.

Finally saw this last week and I liked it quite a bit. Well paced movie with Kay Kay pulling off another good performance.
