in 1999 , she starred in the successful kachche dhaage , which was followed by six more releases , the most notable of them being indra kumar ‘s drama mann . she played the role of a traffic accident victim in the film , which entered into the top five highest - grossing films of the year . [ 22 ] her performance in the film won her favourable reviews . film critic m . ali ikram wrote about her performance , “if there is respite for manisha’s innumerable fans of late , this flick is it . we may not care about hits and flops , but it is painful to watch this acting virtuoso in the innumerable side roles she has been seen in of late . indra kumar’s decision to cast manisha here , is a case of perfect casting , and she never lets him or the audience down . this lady is truly the meena kumari of her generation . it is great fun watching manisha and aamir khan ‘s perfect chemistry opposite one another . the film’s climax has both stars permanently molding a spot for themselves in bollywood history , and it will have you shedding tears by the bucketful . ” [ 23 ]
kachche daage is not a great film , but it ' s highly watchable with some really fun moments . the songs are also excellent with the action is also good this movie also did good at the cinemas . people if you need to watch a movie on a friday or saturday this is what you need i was shocked at the very ending when ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? turns out to be the villain and the action at the ending is a1 . the songs like ' pyar nanni kare ' is the best . don ' t forget this movie is a must see for all ajay devgan and saif ali khan fans
torytellers the world over love a tale about male bonding . put two divergent characters together on a problem and watch their blow - ups till they shake down and end up beer buddies .
anjum rajabali creates aftab ( ajay ) , a man trying to live with the absence of a last name - - yeah , the same ole ' bastard ' routine - - and dhananjay ( saif ali khan ) , a brash 25 - year - old adman who puts everything he owns on the line to get accounts .
aftab loves manisha koirala , but he can ' t marry her since her dad has thrown the spanner in the wheel about the last name confusion . dhananjay , on the other hand , has his love life going smoothly , the woman of his life being played by namrata shirodkar .
for a living , aftab steals arms being smuggled across the border . one night he blows up a loaded truck while trying to steal from it . and that puts the baddies on his trail .
in the midst of a song in a shower dhananjay is informed that his father is dying in a hospital in rajasthan . he lands up there and the dying pater tells him about how he loved a woman called mariam ( maya alagh ) and how , thinking she ' d died in partition , he ' d married another . only recently had he discovered that the first love was alive and had his son .
mariam asks aftab to visit his dying father . the two half - brothers meet each other just as pater packs up . after the cremation dhananjay returns to his ad circuit in bombay .
but aftab gets a call from the neighbourhood nasties , who have taken the precaution of kidnapping his mother and cutting off her pinkie . and they promise more finger - chips in the mail if aftab fails to get dhananjay back to rajasthan .
dhananjay is lured over and is tricked into being photographed with holding up a dead man and a pistol - - darned odd how some things that most ordinary people don ' t touch in their lives turn up together . . .
anyway , a mysterious man whose mug is too sinister to been seen tells the trapped adman that he ought to give a gift to one justice sorabji - - an old friend of dhananjay apparently . the judge in question has apparently collected evidence about the arms - traffickers to blow their scheme sky high . and so they decide to return the favour in advance - - by blowing him up first with the parcel bomb .
dhananjay , having no choice , shrugs and goes and hands over the packet that blows the judge away . and lands up behind bars . aftab walks in to police station in great style and sometime later the duo get away . we ' ve got to do something about those leaky lock - ups . . .
sung by the late ustad nusrat fateh ali khan . it ' s a toss - up on what ' s more funny in the last one - - kapoor ' s wig or his epileptic fits .
there ' s a troubled hero , a great many red herrings and a mysterious villain who pulls all the strings . the idea worked well in
because it was a fast paced thriller with a tight focus and a great many gimmicks .
it ' s important to delve in a bit of the background . milan had assisted mahesh bhatt earlier and working with him does tend to give you the air of injured innocence , the no - one - loves - a - bastard syndrome . perhaps it ' s force of habit that made milan make aftab a fatherless one . for it matters little to the storyline really .
( bhatt again ) were the two previous efforts . he is effective , though , as the taciturn one with the wry jokes . therefore , this role is tailor - made for him . saif is saif , though the director could have got him to pretend that he was more sober than he was . there ' s hardly any difference from the role he did with akshay kumar in
manisha is wasted ; anybody could have done what she did . namrata has a few more scenes that she spends flirting with the camera . the empty - headed character doesn ' t even notice when her beau returns after being blackmailed and with a murder rap ahead . maybe the makers feared that worry wrinkles would mar namrata ' s looks .
sadashiv amprapukar does a cameo as a cbi officer while govind namdeo plays the tough as nails rajasthani cop who is out for the blood of the elusive duo .
the sets are good and the locales tastefully selected . it is a little odd that manisha , who was in kashmir , is suddenly picked up in one of the villages of rajasthan . she might have caught the early morning bus , but it ' s unlikely . the camera work is good , as is the editing . and one of the action sequences in particular is riveting - - that in which the two heroes hang on beneath a doomed train .
the music by ustad nusrat fateh ali khan has three songs that work well while the rest don ' t . but the songs do hobble the pace just as things begin to happen . the film also suffers from the
syndrome , in that the climax is far weaker than the earlier action sequences .
' s certainly not a must - see . but if you must see something , well . . . do .

legendry vinod khanna and his magnetic persona through a movie during the transistion phase of a villian to the mainlead . . . a movie through pics . . . the man who made dacoits lethal and adorable both . . . . .

feeling thwarted by my truncated phaansi experience , i embarked on another dacoit saga . these films have the added bonus ( for me ) of engaging gemma’s attention too ( the horses ) ; she goes absolutely nuts which is entertaining by itself . it also makes her very pleased with herself , and how can that be bad ? she’s defending me against those big bad animals !
plus , this movie is directed by raj khosla—one of my favorite directors—and it stars vinod khanna and kabir bedi as deadly adversaries who find redemption through their love for the same girl ( the absolutely stunning moushumi chatterjee ) . one more thing about the horses : vinod’s is a white one named dara , and kabir’s is a black one named toofan . heh .
thakur bahadur singh ( dev kumar ) is convicted in court ( by judge murad of course ! ) of murder and sentenced to death . his conviction has been secured by the testimony of pandit tulsiram ( kabir bedi ) , and bahadur singh’s pregnant wife ( nirupa roy ) vows that her unborn son will avenge his father’s death at the hands of tulsiram .
luckily for her , she does give birth to a son ; she brings him up in an atmosphere of hatred ( how can that possibly go wrong ? ) and teaches him to be a crack shot . when he is old enough , she calls her husband’s old gang of dacoits and hands him over to lead them . they welcome lakhan ( vinod khanna ) with open arms .
of course his first order of business is to track down pandit tulsiram and kill him . it doesn’t take long—he and his men encounter tulsiram walking alone and unarmed , and lakhan shoots him in cold blood as old tulsiram cries his own son’s name : “roopa ! ”
roopa ( kabir bedi—now that is a son who really does look just like his father ! ) comes to warn lakhan’s mother that he will be taking his own revenge .
she is defiant , but she tells lakhan later to be careful of roopa : something about him scared her . he laughs it off . his next trip is to a local brothel , where two sisters dance and entertain . the younger one is still * only * a dancer , but lakhan’s attention goes to her and despite her older sister’s protests and entreaties , he abducts her and rapes her .
even his own men don’t approve of this , but lakhan’s arrogance knows no bounds . a few days later he rapes the daughter of one of his mother’s friends . when news of all this reaches his mother , she is horrified .
meanwhile , roopa has joined a group of dacoits led by amritlal ( jagdish raj ) , who forces him to shoot a police informant as proof of his loyalty . roopa does so , knowing that this act makes him as much an outcast of society as the others , including lakhan .
when amritlal is killed during an encounter with lakhan’s band , roopa takes over as their new leader too . another dacoit challenges him for leadership , but in contrast to lakhan’s habits of shooting unarmed men and raping helpless girls , roopa fights the other man without a weapon , although his opponent has a knife . he wins the respect of his men—also in sharp contrast to lakhan .
a fairly unobtrusive comic side plot is introduced in the form of an ammunition - wala named rambharosa ( bhagwan ) , who sells arms to both lakhan and roopa’s gangs and is worried that his divided loyalties might get him in trouble—as he tells his wife lajwanti ( tun tun ) . i’m always so happy to see her !
roopa enlists the help of the two nautch girls to try and trap lakhan , but misses his chance to kill him . lakhan is suspicious of the younger girl and kills her . lakhan’s mother reads about it , and is even more upset . when lakhan goes to see her , she angrily repudiates him but he points out what the rest of us could see all along .
it’s a very powerful scene and vinod is awesome . you can see the pain behind his words , although he is angry : instead of teaching him to read and write , he says , she taught him to shoot . he leaves her standing speechless and rides off . on the way back to their hideout , one of his men spots roopa and shoots him in the leg . lakhan angrily knocks the man off his horse : roopa is his target ! he takes off after his wounded enemy .
roopa manages to make his way to a large cornfield , and hides among the tall stalks . he’s spotted by a beautiful and carefree village girl named sona ( moushumi chatterjee ) , and he asks her for help .
she takes him to a small hut where grain is stored and then intercepts lakhan , who is hot on roopa’s trail , and diverts him away from the hut . lakhan is impressed by her beauty and innocent charm and he leaves , taking roopa’s abandoned horse with him . over the next few days , sona brings food for roopa . i see a new list of daku - drama characteristics being born , as he asks her to help him remove the bullet from his leg .
his facial contortions are * almost * as good as shashi’s ! meanwhile , lakhan can’t stop thinking about sona , and he dresses up as a holy man and ventures into her village to talk to her . she doesn’t appear to recognize him as the dacoit , and he returns to speak with her on a very risky daily basis .
roopa comes looking for sona again after he’s recovered , too . he wants to give her a gold necklace as thanks for her help , but she refuses it thinking that he stole it . he tells her that it belongs to his mother , a respected and honorable woman . she asks if he comes from a good family and he says yes , and that he was in the army planning on a career as an officer . she asks why he left that to become a dacoit .
he doesn’t tell her , but his eyes fill with tears and he says he wishes he had met her earlier . it’s so sad ! oh the waste ! the humanity !
on a festival day , both lakhan and roopa come in disguise to the village . they each watch sona sing , completely smitten . the songs in this film are very nice , by the way , courtesy of laxmikant pyarelal . that night roopa sneaks up on lakhan and his men as they sleep . he doesn’t manage to kill lakhan although he does steal lakhan’s horse ( his own , stolen by lakhan earlier , is chained up ) . lakhan’s uncle chides him for losing concentration because of sona—deadly for a dacoit .
both men are about to get their hearts broken , though : sona is already in love , with a village boy named bhola ( ritesh ) . they each see her frolicking ( and singing ) with him one afternoon . i don’t really understand it , he’s a total pudding - face and she could have vinod ! or kabir ! but it’s not my decision .
but lakhan’s uncle—tired of lakhan mooning around—kidnaps sona , bringing her to the dacoits’ hideout . lakhan is furious and chastises his men , telling them not to even look at her . he takes sona back unharmed to her village . when they arrive there , the police are present in droves , but lakhan starts down the path to go in . sona stops him ; she doesn’t want the police to capture him .
she convinces him that her parents love her and will have faith in her and he needn’t risk his life .
her father is kn singh ! he is furious with her for lying to the police , and the police don’t believe her anyway . her to - be husband bhola has no faith in her either , and his father breaks their engagement .
can lakhan make things right without getting caught by the police ? or by roopa ? can sona get bhola back ? why does she want to ? it boggles my mind . i simply can’t suspend disbelief that much .
i really enjoyed this movie , though . vinod khanna and kabir bedi’s performances are really wonderful and the story is compelling . and where has moushumi chatterjee been all my life ? i don’t think i’ve seen her before , at least not this young . she’s gorgeous . the film is beautifully shot , too , with all the khosla trademark windows and frames and odd viewing angles .

ooh , this one sounds great . i was debating getting this one a while back since i read the synopsis and was intrigued , but doubted if the story would be given the right kind of treatment . i should have known better , i like most of khosla’s work !
and moushumi… sigh . she was gorgeous early in her career , crooked teeth and all . i don’t think she aged particularly well but the early 70s were very good to her . : - )
omg vinod and kabir bedi ! what a drool - fest ! ! ! : - ) how come i never knew about it ? but wait , i think i did see the song – mere bachpan tu ja – long back on tv . i need to see this movie ! sigh… just when i decided to put a stop to my dvd buying . : - (
i hope moushumi ends up with kabir though – hot or no , a rapist doesnt get reformed enough to get the girl , in my book ! and moushumi was always so bubbly and cute , until the 80s when she suddenly put on a lot of weight .
i have to say , there is * no way * she would’ve chosen ritesh over vinod . no . way . the instant she saw him in that field she would’ve kicked bhola to the curb . my gosh , that first outfit of hers is so lovely ! good thing she’s wearing her temple best to work . lol
whoops , sorry , i meant kabir . i’m a dork . ; - )
sy : she’s absolutely stunning . i was bowled over—and i had vinod and kabir to look at . plus the lovely horses !
anonymous : i think i have at least two of those , will need to watch them .
bollyviewer : you really did ! but appropriately so i think so i’m not going to fix them for you . and it is a drool - fest , both vinod and kabir are young and angry and so hot .
ajnabi : she saw both of them in that field so either works . but she chooses bhola ! it’s just irresponsible . and completely unbelievable ; even more unbelievable than someone jumping backwards and up about 20 feet .
she musta been blind ; - ) … vinod and kabir are anyday miles ahead of ritesh . but hey , i think i’m going to like this movie – i definitely want to see it ! btw , two of the more entertaining moushumi chatterjee starrers i’ve seen also star sanjeev kumar : angoor and swayamvar .
i confess i loved moushami even when she put on weight . she’s really funny in ‘angoor’ . she did a lot of these pampered wife roles , and she’s always charming in them . you can see why a husband would want to spoil her silly .
yes , yes , yes , she deserved that necklace in ` angoor , ’ she acted so well . so agree about husband wanting to spoil her silly .
dustedoff : i’m sure it would have been difficult to get a bigger star to do such a smalll part as bhola’s , esp . since guest appearances weren’t so trendy back then , but if young amitabh , or sanjeev kumar or someone like that had been bhola , it would at least have leveled the playing field a little bit ! : - ) i will def . move angoor up on my list , since you and banno both recommend it !
rum : happy birthday ! and yes , the swoon - o - meter actually broke during this film . daku aur jawan sounds fab , i will look for it . love leena , love sunil ( esp . as director—have you seen reshma aur shera ? one of my all - time favorites ) …
i can’t believe you watched a movie starring vinod without me . you’re going to have to watch it again soon .
oh i was going to recommend angoor as well – very funny in parts . ( i used to find all of it hilarious , but age has made me cynical : ( ) moushumi ranks very high in the droolworthy list for my husband , so we own a few of her movies…and yes , she does do an excellent pampered housewife…that is one skill i need to learn from her !
oooo ! vinod khanna in angsty mode ! i’m adding this on my too - be - watched list . i think i could watch him angrily confront his maa again and again and again… .
filmi girl : vinod is positively teeming with angst . so is kabir ! they make a great combo : - )
kabir and vinod in 1 movie together is hotness overload - i had heard the name of this movie but didnt know much about it at all - one day soon though , i absolutely need to watch this .
shweta : heh : - ) thank you . yup , this is a good one ! ! ! !
i skimmed this entry because i prefer to find out about these complex 70’s filmi stories as they unfold . what i read however made me sure i need to see this one .
i think ritesh is moushami’s real husband . her husband is the son of the late music director and singer hemant kumar
wow . although i love hemant kumar ! perhaps he has something that doesn’t come across onscreen . thanks for the trivia !
“daku - drama” cracks me up everytime ! and while i’m completely on page with the disbelief re : ritesh over vinod / kabir ( i know love is about the soul but let’s not be ridiculous ! ) in a way it makes sense – the other two might be hot but are clearly headed for a bad end . plus , who wants to marry a rapist ? even if he does have a childhood sob story .
the reason i love moushimi chatterjee is because she is the least mealymouthed actress of her generation . i remember reading interviews in which she was like “so my parents married me off when i was no more than a wee child in case i got my head turned by all this movie glitter and that was nice because i love my husband but hey ! let’s be real here – there was a lot of manmeat around and i’m not a saint . but i didn’t want to leave my husband and he didn’t want me to leave him and our marriage worked . it might not be your idea of marriage but it is mine and i had my husband and my kids and my career and my hunks and i’m great , thanks . ” love . her .
amrita : of course , you are right—kabir and vinod were clearly headed for a bad end , but . still . okay and vinod was a rapist . okay . : - )
i love your story about moushumi ! she sounds like a woman you could steal horses with . my kind of girl . and good for her husband too for getting it . i love her too now .
just coming by from banno’s post about the clothes in this . i must see it ! ! ! ! the vinod / kabir combo is deadly with potential overheating but devil may care .
i love moushumi in roti kapada aur makaan and anari , where she wears a pink hat that i desperately want to go back in time and steal .
if teeth were spectacularly , charmingly crooked , like moushumi’s ( and sharmila’s and shashi kapoor’s ) , so many orthodontists would lose their prosperous smiles . i’ve noted it’s a charming , particularly bengali heroine trait ( i’m thinking madhabi mukherjee and mamata shankar . ) i suspected it was ritesh , moushumi’s husband playing bhola and some of the comments here said the same . maybe it was before the birth of her daughters , she looks so very young in this one . i’ve heard ( probably she mentioned it in ` phool khile hain gulshan gulshan’ with tabassum ) that hemant kumar wanted her as his d - i - l after he saw her in the bengali version of balika badhu . i’m sure it was a struggle for her to continue acting afterwards , though she did win that struggle . she excelled in those hellraiser housewife roles and who could resist that smile ? my father , f - i - l , husband all seemed to be variously smitten by her . i think the reason is how lovely she looked in saris . as for the movie , that screen cap where lakhan berates his mom about sums it up . i remember this dialogue from when we watched this movie a few years ago . kabir bedi went from no upper lip ` vegetation’ to actual ` landscaping’ ( it took some accepting when i saw him in seema minus beard . ) love ` daku - drama . ’
uff , forgot this – saw her some years ago , playing rahul khanna’s mom in some nri caper , can’t remember the name of the movie . cheered up on seeing her name and then did some math but enjoyed her presence hugely for old times’ sake .
this movie was followup from mera gaon mera desh , kuchhe daage was relleased in 1973 my personal as i could understand things around me , , both vinood / kabir uncle were new to industry and i believe this was moushmi auntys first movie . towering personas like vinood uncle / kabir uncle they still are the roles were well defined , and both givinig equal justice could be extraced by raj khosla the master craftmen hereby i will not forget to mention what magical / bombastic women mousami aunty was , all the three lead players gave milestone performences with nobody over shawding the other , i am surprised that god does not make anymore personas like vinood uncle / kabir uncle or mousami aunty amust watch movie . ravinder minhas jalandhar city panjab minhas35 @ urltoken .

thr : freelancers has a fairly cynical attitude about police . is the movie just a dramatization , or do you feel like it fairly represents their behavior ?
this is a film with no heroes , no narrative rhythm , and characters with no morals . as a result , it is also a film with no sense of purpose , no authenticity and no life .

50 cent spoke with the hollywood reporter at the recent los angeles press day for freelancers , where the natural showman offered unexpectedly understated charm . in addition to talking about the origins of his new film , he discussed what lessons he takes away from the film roles he chooses and reflected on the challenges of tackling material that might seem uncharacteristic or even contradictory to the larger - than - life persona he’s created through his albums .
freelancers is a bad movie for a number of reasons , but 50 cent ' s character is atrocious . although the film hints that malo got into the police academy by bedding the wife of a judicial official , malo leaves training ready to enforce the law . it takes all of 6 hours before malo has fully committed to a corrupt path lined with drug use , prostitutes and murder . there ' s also some repressed memories that freelancers conveniently allows malo to resurrect late in the game . these are important in pinpointing where allegiances lie , but the film piles the revelations on a shaky foundation of cop - movie clichés .
unfortunately , they ' re also among the few things to recommend about the film . and even then , only barely .
the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
if there ' s one thing
freelancers
does nicely , it is to illustrate the versatility of new orleans as a shooting location . although the majority of the film was shot here in spring 2011 , it is convincingly set in new york city ( a setting established by a few days of shooting exteriors there ) .
looking forward to work the best ! though im a student and im a video editor and a film maker . . . .

there ' s really not much else to say about freelancers . it ' s a bad movie . it ' s not offensively bad , at least , and it should play fine for those looking for a saturday afternoon time - killer . but when you bring two decorated actors like forest whitaker and robert de niro onto a project , you kinda have to expect something a little deeper than freelancers provides .
the first film to come out of dove’s real beauty productions stars cathleen meredith , the woman behind the global fat girls dance movement .
freelancers boasts a whopping thirty credited producers according to the internet movie database , and one of those fine filmmakers even produced righteous kill , the crappy geriatric cop drama with robert de niro and al pacino . despite the ridiculous number of helpers on this project , freelancers is about as generic a cop drama as you can get . de niro shows up here , too , as do curtis
50 cent
jackson and forest whitaker , and between the weak action sequences and impossibly - cliché story of de niro ' s corrupt police captain vs . 50 cent ' s rookie legacy cop , freelancers is bargain - bin junk .
for at være helt ærlig , så syndes jeg det er en lorte film . der er ikke så meget andet , jeg vil sige .
freelancers was a miss for me . i didn ' t like the movie and i was extremely disappointed to see mr . de niro associate himself with such a bad film . the main character , that being the rapper 50 cent , was dull and unimpressive . i didn ' t care what happened . i just wanted it over with . the movie is another dirty cop film that brings nothing new to the table and is forgetful . i won ' t be seeing this again .

freelancers has some great actors , but really falls flat due to a poor script and terrible characters . how they got robert de niro and forest whitaker to sign on for this project is beyond me . whitaker actually gives a pretty good performance considering the material he had to work with . the film tries so hard to be training day , but it just reminds us how unique that movie really was . freelancers is without a doubt the worse movie i ' ve seen this year and it ' s not worth writing anything more about it . i give it 3 out 10 thanks to forest whitaker , but 50 cent should really stick to rapping .

the apparent star of this improbable film , curtis 50 cents jackson , mumbles his way through his lines , making me desperately wish for subtitles . how he landed this role is a question , because acting is not something he knows how to do at all . so they stuff the cast with gems like deniro and whitaker , trying to trick us into believing there is actually a film here . . . but there is not . it starts off promising enough but half - way through we find out what happened to 50 cent ' s father in the film , and so this one detail has the whole film fall apart and it is all downhill after that . it is interesting to see diniro and whitaker and a cast of
bad
cops , there could have been a great little dark film here . but the story has so many holes and 50 cents is such a terrible actor is just begs the question as to why this film was made . in recent years diniro has made some really bad films , and this should be cause for worry . is diniro becoming like jack nicholson who is no longer capable of making a film anyone would ever want to watch ? if so , why ? what has happened ? i have no idea who curtis 50 cents jackson is , but he is not an actor ; he is nearly unwatchable in this flat , dull film .

so , it’s not just that netflix is luring film - makers with its seductive combination of deep pockets and a free rein – it’s that , if netflix wasn’t stepping in , these films wouldn’t get made at all . in february , it was announced that martin scorsese’s next film , the irishman , would be distributed by netflix . the film was set up at paramount , which released scorsese’s previous four , but the hollywood studio reportedly got cold feet when the director’s latest , silence , bombed , grossing just $ 7m against a $ 40m budget .
freelancers is a miscast misfire . 50 cent is terrible , the story is completely stale , and forest whitaker and robert de niro are wasted in tiresome supporting roles . rent this one only if you have a free rental at your local video store . otherwise , watch training day again .
freelancers gives its audience nothing it hasn ' t seen a hundred times before in better cop dramas . this tale of corruption and retaliation is predictable and largely uninteresting , and actors 50 cent , robert de niro and forest whitaker do little more than go through the motions . skip it .
whether you commission a producer or not , you should still use local freelancers or production companies since it will cut your travel costs . you’ll save on buying flights , paying for gas or visas , and providing accommodations , all of which can add up quickly with non - local crews .

not every section of the film industry has been as receptive . in particular , the cannes film festival is insisting that , as of next year , all palme d’or contenders must be released in french cinemas . since french law mandates a 36 - month window between theatrical release and streaming date , this effectively bars netflix from the competition . at the cannes press screening of okja , a much lower - profile netflix film starring tilda swinton and jake gyllenhaal , part of the audience booed neflix’s logo before the screening had to be stopped due to projection problems . pedro almodóvar is on the side of the festival . will smith – who stars in bright , another netflix film due in december – has spoken out in support of the young upstart . expect other industry figures to begin taking sides soon .

still , there are some unavoidable parallels between army generals and film directors . “i can never claim to be in a position where i’m having to make decisions with life and death consequences , ” says michôd . “but i do need to be able to wrangle a gigantic machine . ” there is one key difference , though , between waging wars and making movies . while the us military that war machine depicts seems incapable of changing course once set , the film industry has become anxiously reactive to changing viewer habits . these attempts to keep box - office receipts profitable by second - guessing audience tastes have caused problems for film - makers .

exclusive : robert de niro is set to star in the jessy terrero - directed freelancers , and forest whitaker is in talks to join him and curtis jackson in the cop drama . the film begins production april 18 in new orleans . jackson plays the son of a slain nypd officer who , with his two best friends , joins the police academy . after graduating , he’s taken under the wing of his father’s former partner captain vic sarcone ( de niro ) in the ranks of sarcone’s street vice crime task force and he becomes part of scarcone’s rogue task force . philippe casseus wrote the script .
netflix’s new feature film is a big deal in many ways . called war machine , it combines the star power of brad pitt and the indie credibility of david michôd , the director of animal kingdom . it boasts big themes : the absurdity of war and the ambition of men . based on the operators , a book about controversial us army general stanley mcchrystal , the film takes place on a big scale , across afghanistan and along the corridors of power in dc . an investment in the range of $ 60m also makes it netflix’s biggest - budget feature to date . most of all , though , war machine is big on expectation : this is the film that could change the industry for ever .
the opening scenes of freelancers are the most interesting . had the film been about the three rookies ' beat work with their volatile superiors , it might have been an interesting character study . one cop lets minority suspects off the hook to keep them out of the system , while another starts a tense , racially motivated standoff to satisfy his own ego . malo shows sparks of good character at this point , diffusing the conflict and sending everyone home alive . malo also flirts with longtime crush cyn ( anabelle acosta ) , but is content to trade her affections for those of for - hire women and narcotics .
the story , about a team of corrupt cops , is hardly anything earth - shattering or refreshing , either . the film brings absolutely nothing new to the table , playing more like a low - rent direct - to - video mma production that just happened to nab a few decent actors who needed a fast buck . none of the characters are fleshed out in a realistic manner , and the new york setting obviously looks like new orleans ( where the film was shot ) .
wednesday , march 22 at 7pm student short environmental film festival come and watch some fascinating and entertaining films made by top film students . professor chris palmer will lead an entertaining and interactive session with the audience and the filmmakers on why and how these films are made . this event builds on eff’s latest initiative , led by arjumand hamid , director of educational outreach , to become an educational resource for students of all backgrounds and ages . followed by a discussion with the student filmmakers .
in his new film freelancers , 50 cent says he isn’t sure whether his character - - a corrupt cop searching for his father’s killer - - is a good guy or bad guy . but the artist’s multifaceted success seems similarly schizophrenic : after making a fortune as a street hustler - turned - gangsta rapper , he created a business empire selling vitamin water and sneakers and launched a philanthropic initiative to help underprivileged kids . and his future acting roles include a turn as a criminal computer expert in the tomb and a kind - hearted football player with a terminal illness in the self - financed all things fall apart .
the whole thing might work if malo and his two best friends - - also delinquents - turned - cops - - had a trace of morality about them . instead , they are entirely irredeemable . they might have taken an oath to protect and serve , but they are little more than gangsters with badges , an especially reprehensible form of criminality that

yet another film about dirty cops , drugs and revenge . don ` t get it why de niro and forest whitaker waste their talents in a b - movies like this and why on earth somebody let curtis jackson aka 50 cent to make movies as he clearly can ` t act .
the freelancers blu - ray arrives courtesy of lionsgate home entertainment . the film is presented in 1080p / avc ( 2 . 40 : 1 ) , mixed in 5 . 1 dts - hd master audio . the transfer is certainly bold and incredibly detailed , with nuanced “gritty” color design and staggering image depth . the encode is solid , but also yields just a slight hint of banding every now and then . the only major issue noted was a slight stutter in the image every so often . it ' s possible this was caused by an equipment issue , but it seemed to do it on both players i tested the disc on . it ' s never very distracting , but once it catches your eye , it ' s quite annoying .

50 cent : you’re a little more conscious of your actions . i mean , you only need one decision ; you can make a decision without thinking one time , and the rest of your life will reflect that decision , so you’ve got to be conscious of what you’re actually doing out there . for me , to see even the drug usage at different points in the actual film , it’s all so familiar - - something that’s been around the environment that i grew up in . so there was a lot of different parts of this actual film that i saw and was bugging off of it .
it co - stars forest whitaker and a slumming robert de niro ( maybe fiddy had some incriminating pictures of him ) and was directed by dominican filmmaker jessy terrero . and if that name sounds vaguely familiar to you , it ' s because he also directed the notorious film soul plane of infamous glory .

actors love that kind of creative environment and the film features enjoyably left - field performances from ben kingsley as afghan president hamid karzai and tilda swinton as an awkward german official , as well as an entire battalion of upcoming talent , including britain’s will poulter , lakeith stanfield from the tv comedy atlanta , and sean penn’s son hopper .

a talent release form is used anytime you have talent in front of a camera , especially if you are looking to distribute a film . in some journalistic situations , simply having your talent say “i give _ _ _ _ permission to air this interview” is enough , but in the case of narrative films or large productions , a physical form is vital . if you plan on getting your film distributed , a distributor will always ask for copies of your talent release forms . if you don’t have them , you will have to go back and get all of your actors and extras to sign a copy after the fact . for this reason , it’s best to get your actors to sign the talent release form before you begin shooting .

new york police captain sarcone ( robert deniro , who ' s frankly been on auto - pilot for what seems to be a decade now ) seeks to train malo ( 50 cent ) ' the son of his deceased partner in his corrupt secret cabal of corrupt cop ways . he ' s partnered up with the equally corrupt larue ( forest whitaker , who was much better as kavanaugh , a sanctimonious foil to vic mackey in the shield ) in fact 50 cent ' s character in this kind of reminded me of julien a tad from that aforementioned series . not that the film is anywhere close to that glorious series , if anything quite the opposite this film sucks . just that it made miss the shield and wish it were still on the air .
unfortunately , freelancers is just one big mistake after another . every single scene is off pace , dragging on and on . otherwise solid performers seem to be phoning it in , picking up a quick paycheck and a few free meals in between takes . there ' s a shoehorned love subplot that never feels real , and an age - old vengeance angle that never resonates on an emotional level . and 50 cent can barely spit his dialogue out . he also offers absolutely no conviction whatsoever . instead , he swaps between lifeless grins and an expressionless stare . his performance is downright embarrassing .

earlier this year , it was our pleasure to announce a new partnership with bafta in supporting the filmmakers market . on saturday 13th july , bafta 195 piccadilly hosted a day of masterclasses , screenings and advice sessions , along with opportunities to network with fellow filmmakers . an optimistic atmosphere amongst the crowd demonstrated the shared passion for the craft , and projected an auspicious image for the future of the uk film industry .
war machine will be given a limited , oscar - qualifying theatrical release in the us and uk , but the big premiere will take place this week on the laptops and in the living rooms of netflix’s 100m - strong subscriber base . the film’s commercial success will be measured not by its box - office takings , but by new subscriber numbers . as attack plans go , it’s more stealth dominance than shock and awe .
money can’t buy you happiness , but apparently it can buy top talent for your crappy movies . rapper - turned - entrepreneur 50 cent extended his empire into film production with his company cheetah vision films , and besides the cast listings , the results are less than promising . the flops offer nothing to audiences , but leave big names like bruce willis – who starred in the thriller , setup – laughing all the way to the bank .
you might assume that any film with pitt attached would be bankable under any circumstance , but michôd suggests that his central performance as general glen mcmahon ( a fictionalised take on mcchrystal ) is of a larger - than - life kind that’s now considered too big for the big screen . “we had conversations about where to pitch the character and knew quite quickly that there was no point in brad trying to keep a leash on it . for us , it was about letting the movie be mental . ”
to serve , protect and steal . not a great movie ! the plot is really weak from start to finish , the story has lots of holes and it feels really made up on the spot . i will be honest and the only reason i watched this film was because robert de niro starred in it . usually his films are great along with great acting but his appearance in this did not help the movie any . the film tries so hard to be training day , but it just reminds us how unique that movie really was . watch at own risk ! the son of a slain nypd officer joins the force , where he falls in with his father ' s former partner and a team of rogue cops . his new boss , sarcone , will see if he has what it takes to be rogue through many trials and tribulations of loyalty , trust and respect . when the truth about his father ' s death is revealed revenge takes him over and he won ' t stop until justice has been truly served .
whether you are working on a crew of two or a crew of fifty - two , a talent release form is vital . in short , a talent release form gives you the right to distribute a film with an actor’s likeness . without a talent release form your production could be at a legal risk and you could potentially get sued ! by using the free talent release form below , you can protect yourself and your production company from any confusion that may arise regarding your right as a filmmaker to distribute content .

the 5 . 1 dts - hd master audio track is quite appetizing at times , with balanced , engaging surrounds and heavy bass punctuating the film ' s soundtrack . dialogue , unfortunately , is a bit more problematic . mic hiss is noticeable throughout , especially on de niro , who seems to be scratching at his mic in a few scenes . while the hiss is not really the fault of the mix itself , it ' s still distracting enough to shave off a few points from the track ' s final score .

jackson is straightforward and not especially interesting . the disc also includes a number of deleted scenes ( 18 : 35 / hd ) ; a behind the scenes with interviews ( 14 : 30 / hd ) featurette that serves as a making - of ; extended interviews with cast and crew ( 33 : 20 / hd ) , with participation by terrero , 50 cent , de niro and others ; and the film ' s theatrical trailer ( 2 : 32 / hd ) .
“i went to film school right in the middle of that explosion of indie cinema that came out of the 90s , ” says michôd . “for a long period , there was a whole bunch of guys – paul thomas anderson , david o russell , wes anderson , spike jonze – who were getting to make movies with budgets inside the studio system , but movies that were so idiosyncratic . when animal kingdom was released [ in 2010 ] , it got me a whole load of attention , but those opportunities didn’t seem to exist any more . ”
sydney - born michôd is the movie journalist turned film - maker who is charged with delivering it . michôd brought the delightfully dishevelled ben mendelsohn to international attention in animal kingdom , then artfully scruffed up teen dream robert pattinson for 2014’s the rover . while he may be leading the assault on traditional cinema , michôd doesn’t look at all like a man who’d fit in with a four - star general’s retinue . his body language is too unassuming , his conversation too considered and his haircut — shoulder - length and in a ponytail — definitely non - regulation .
