    If you are planning to watch WAZIR (I suggest you do), track every move, analyze every act on screen; it will help you decipher the Wazir: the winning move that wins the war!

    What works against the film, however, is loads of groan worthy cliches, predictable storyline and worst of all, it also suffers from the common woe of most Bollywood thrillers; lack of subtlety. There is nothing left to audience’s imagination as the director goes about painstakingly explaining every move, every turn of the story. ‘Wazir’ is a good, one time watch.

    This is definitely a must watch movie. It will hit the silver screens tomorrow, January 8. Without any doubt this game of chess would be loved and leave you surprised for sure.

    Consistent hard focus over sentimental soft-focus would have let these shatranj ke khiladi blow up that chess board. As it is, they complete their game – but don’t check-mate smartly enough.

    Wazir has all the makings of an irresistible, sexy, tempting thriller that comes together in its climax but doesn’t roll out as convincingly as expected. It tries to be deceptive but doesn’t have enough to outsmart all. It evokes thought, woos you with its brusque, bravado style and its distinct flavour. If you can survive the boredom of the weaker moments in the movie, you might just be left intrigued with the power of its crackling climax.

    With a runtime of less than two hours, Wazir is tightly edited which makes it an enjoyable movie to begin 2016.

    Wazir is a missed opportunity. It is a story that could have been gripping but suffers from a bad treatment, thus leaving you disappointed. Farhan and Big B do their best to save this botched up plot but they can’t. So basically, it’s like the audiences will end up saying Check Mate to the makers.

    WAZIR, despite boasting of some of the great performances, reasonably fails to leave the desired impact because of its convoluted script. At the box office, the film may just about appeal to a handful of the multiplex audiences who would want to get a taste of Bollywood entertainment in absence of any new film releases since past three weeks.

    Watch the film only for the impressive performances of Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar. However, if you are looking for a good thriller, you might go disappointed!

    Wazir proves to show that actors are reduced to pawns if there’s no solid story backing them.

    Sandhya Ramachandran | About

    While using chess as a backdrop is quite an interesting idea, one wishes the writers and the director made good moves and clocked themselves too. Overall, the film is neatly shot (Sanu Varghese) and paced (Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Abhijat Joshi). But that simply does not work its charms. The ‘leave your brains behind’ policy may work for this film; if you don’t question it, you may enjoy it!

    This looks like a terrific year ahead for Bollywood. Wazir is a solid start. A gripping thriller anchored by Bachchan and Akhtar’s compelling compatibility. Not to be missed.
