Dev just presented us with a masterclass in modern action cinema. Everything about this film was amazing. The shots, the acting, the pacing, the fight scenes, the incorporation of Indian religious themes, its restraint to do things the audience expects. All of it was brilliant.
If there is one criticism I have it's that at certain points in the film they lean in a bit on tropes from this style of "one-man-revenge" action movie. But in a lot of other ways they subverted expectations very tastefully.
Go see this movie, it will change the game for action flicks and open the doors for more Indian-lead films in the future. 9/10.
