Pooran S @Pooran 07/26/2023 A good engaging movie based on a real life incident. A look at a high pressure encounter & its after effects . Good casting overall . Covers a lot of important topics some direct , some implied & does so without being preachy . Found it quite gripping for most parts including the effort & how it affects the mental health of policemen in high pressure jobs which we at times don't acknowledge & it does not shy away from uncomfortable topics. Few personal favourite scenes are the interplay between the upright police officer played well by John Abraham & his superiors, the visit to & chase scene of Nizampur...whew what action !, the tense pre-capture scene of the accused to Nepal, the investigation report scene & the courtroom drama. Worth a watch . See more 06/09/2022 An interesting true story with an end that is worth the wait. The movie keeps you guessing what actually happened until a certain point, and John Abraham's acting takes center stage. See more 03/01/2022 The film is based on actual police encounter of four Indian Mujahideen Terrorists in 2008. The film's best feature is its daring to be politically incorrect and show how concepts of democracy and secularism are misused in Indian politics. It also showcases the separatist mindset of a section of India's muslims. Obviously this film has been targeted by liberals and leftists who think talking about Islamic terrorism spreads Islamophobia. We need more films like these which expose those people who provide intellectual support to terrorists and shield them from law and justice. See more 06/16/2020 Absolute great movie must watch it. See more 03/12/2020 The good news about 'Batla House' is it's gripping directorial consistency: Nikhil Advani doesn't carry the weight of patriotic indulgence of Abhishek Sharma who cast Abraham as a crucial character in Parmanu, and he doesn't have the overwrought over simplicity and obvious blandness of the blank filmmaker Milap Zaveri. His thrilling chase scenes have been mightily shot. Abraham delivers more than his expressionless face can, which is sometimes to a fault. But overall the film remains just passable, because the screenplay still wants to click on rousing buttons. The competent storyteller and compelling plot needed a bit more. Perhaps a better lead. See more yash b @yashbansal 12/25/2019 "Batla House" is a solid thriller that movies at a quick pace and kept my interest for the most part. This movie presents an engaging story that I didn't really know anything about going into it. I think the strongest part of the movie is John Abraham's committed performance. His character is likable and easy to root for. I think he did a good job playing the central character. The story does feel a bit one-sided at times and it's ironic because of how it repeatedly comments on how important knowing the full story is. Nonetheless, as a movie, it is pretty effective and I enjoyed watching it. See more Read all reviews
