BLACK is one of the most powerful films I've seen in a decade. Forget anything and everything you know or think you know about Bollywood films, BLACK is world class movie making of a standard "Hollywood" aspires to.
Director Sanjai Leela Bhansali has used the art of visual storytelling brilliantly - coupled with a wonderful and engaging screenplay. Black is magnificently shot and beautifully edited with heart stopping performances.
I had never heard of Amitabh Bachchan until a few months ago and now I am simply in awe. In India, they call him the big B... after watching Black, it's easy to see why. And the brilliance of Amitabh is perfectly balanced with stunning performances from the beautiful Rani Mukerji and child actress, Ayesha Kapoor.
BLACK is a product of a new generation of Indian filmmakers and they are rapidly raising the bar. I wonder how long it will be before the Hollywood rip-off version is released... though I very much doubt it will leave a mark on the original.
BLACK is a must see. But I warn you, have tissues on standby... if you have human emotions, you will laugh a lot and cry even more. You will fall in love with these characters, be uplifted by their story and thankful you saw BLACK.
