Darbar- A Review of the Rajnikant Film

Rajni does it again. This man is amazing on screen, no matter what the story of the film is- It could be sci-fi, as in Robot, or a simple cop and robber story, he dominates everything in sight with sheer presence!

And so it is with his latest, Darbar. The story is almost incidental to showcasing the man. It's not a bad story, but the editing and fast-paced movement keeps you engaged for most part. The daughter and his sidekick are the only others who have a substantial role, not even his love interest. The songs and lyrics are a weak point, but luckily don't take away too much from the main plot. Dialogues are good.

Sunil Shetty does not have a lot to do, and does it competently. Watch it if you are a Rajni fan. If not, it's up to you.As a student of film acting, just to learn what an actor can achieve, it's a lesson. He makes it look so easy..it's not, at his age, I am quite sure.
