Viewing Notes

Always love seeing young Jackie Shroff kicking ass. This is a wild ride too with the plot turning a corner at each act. Vinod Khanna portrays the disgraced inspector that cannot win in court to effectively incarcerate the bad guys. Meanwhile a black leather-clad, helmeted vigilante on a motorcycle appears and begins murdering the main crime lords (this all happens with the first 20 min or so). Of course the gorgeous sub-inspector (Dimple Kapadia) immediately suspects Khanna. Then things get crazy. Real crazy. Super fun late-80s action crime with many of the Indian cinema hallmarks you’d expect.

Super happy that Netflix is offering films like this for streaming. Also a dilemma because I want to watch them all.
