Feels like Hotel Rwanda Script merged into real situation

Rating: 7/10 (29 May 2016)

Good effort in describing the conditions of people and providing looks and detail into the condition of people during crisis. Even though it depicted real life incident there are cinematic copies you can find if you have watched Hotel Rwanda and similar movies in Hollywood. Akshay Kumar did a good job in maintaining the spirit of movie and there was little role for others especially Nimrat Kaur who is too talented. The movie circles round Iraq invades Kuwait in August, 1990 and shows the inefficiency of system both internally and externally when crisis comes about. The politician shown depicted a guy who wanted to hold on to his throne even when lakhs of people are suffering and when they are saved due to efforts of others he takes the credit for it. This movie shows that there are innumerable number of unknown heroes who worked within to bring all people back to India. The best scenes were Vande Mataram song while Plane lifting off with 1st set of passengers and Akshay's character saying " I will never ask what my country did for me,after this last flight". A good effort to showcase historical event but script feels to been scraped from several similar Hollywood movies. Worth the watch
