DVD | Khakee

My very limited knowledge of Bollywood equated to an understanding that every second scene had to be a very camp musical/dance scene.

So when I got sent Khakee, an Indian action movie I wasn’t sure what to expect!

For an action movie things got down to business pretty much straight away, and there wasn’t any dancing in sight! But then after letting my guard down, and enjoying the movie, about a quarter of the way through, a girl enters the scene. Cue fantasy dance scene.

Though I couldn’t really see the relevance to the rest of the movie, this scene and the two others placed through the movie didn’t detract from the action too much.

In the end it was a very pleasing action movie, if some what cheesy (and funny) in places, with the writers or director throwing in every cliché action movie scene! But the plot was solid and the action kept you glued. There was even a surprising twist or two.

So if you’ve avoided Bollywood because of the dancing, give Khakee a go.
