Sarkar
其它标题: Sarkar / सर्कार
The Indian version of The Godfather, with the focus on SARKAR, an Indian politician.
印度版的《教父》,可能会成为印度最成功的黑帮电影……
这里没有对与错,只有权利。Suresh Nagre是一位“Sarkar”,拥有一帮职业杀手,影响着法律标准的界定。他是权利的中心,他能够罢免内阁,并将其他人换上。他是笃信宗教的,但他不会因此而内疚。他可以成为毁灭性人物,只要他愿意,他可以让整个城市投入烈焰中。他的家庭由妻子,儿子Vishnu 和Shankar,及Vishnu的妻子和儿子组成。他的房屋就像是个堡垒,由忠心耿耿的匪军保护着。我们只能认为Sarkar是从天堂落入凡间的,因为没有其任何背景。此外Sarkar从不卷入被他帮助过的人士间的金融交易,甚至拒绝贿赂来避免非法运作的发生。而这必然导致分歧...

Company
导演: Ram Gopal Varma 演员: Ajay Devgan
其它标题: Company / Company - Das Gesetz der Macht
Author: Abhishek (moviebuff81) from Sydney Australia
Ram Gopal Varma's latest offering 'Company' is probably one of the best Indian gangster films ever made (after Nayakan and Satya). This film is so well done that the viewers feel like they are watching real-life events. And people living in India will know that some of the events are actually inspired by real-life incidents, although the film does not admit it.
Company is the story of two friends - Malik (Ajay Devgan) and Chandu (Vivek Oberoi) - how they build up the 'Company' - Bombay underworld on a global scale and thus establish their supremacy. A small misunderstanding between them turns into a large scale mafia war. The cast in this film is great, a special mention must be made of Vivek Oberoi. The son of Suresh Oberoi (former Bollywood star) is talented and seems to have put in a lot of effort for his first film. I only hope he doesn't get type-casted in the future after such a hard-hitting role on debut. Ajay Devgan fits very well into the role of Malik, a cold blooded don who always means business. Manisha Koirala enacts the role of Malik's girlfriend pretty well and is refreshing. However, the biggest surprise of this film was Antara Mali. She has done a great job as Chandu's wife, and it only goes to show that there is no dearth of talent in the country.
The narrative is well paced, and the viewer never gets bored. Some people might find the absence of songs in the film annoying, but their presence would only hamper the pace of the film. The script is well written, and some of the dialogues are really memorable - for example, when Malik says "To forgive a friend's mistake is an even bigger mistake in the 'Company'". The background music by Sandeep Chowta really complements the plot and he certainly deserves some credit. But more than anything, it is Ram Gopal Varma's direction that needs to be appreciated. He has proved once again that with a good story, an excellent cast and a lot of determination, one can make a memorable film and defy some of Bollywood's age old norms. A special mention must also be made of Mohanlal. He is certainly one of the best Indian actors of all time and although his Hindi dialogue-delivery in Company is quite sloppy, he deserves a lot of praise for making a good effort. His portrayal of an honest, determined cop trying to eradicate crime in Bombay (loosely based on Sivanandan, Joint Commissioner of Police, Mumbai) is very well executed.
The film gives us an in-depth view into the dark world of Bombay Mafia, where only the fittest survive, and how their operations have spread on a global scale. One thing I found intriguing about this film was the role that mobile phones play, how everything can be controlled efficiently by just making one phone call, and how business deals and murders can be executed with, quite literally, just one push of a button.
Bottomline: This film is a must-watch. A landmark in Indian film-making, all thanks to Ram Gopal Varma. An easy 9 out of 10.
