Jail

It is a Madhur Bhandarkar movie. So you can expect a movie on some face of reality we never have seen. The name suggests its the jail this time.
The movie is a typical MB film, with a corrupt system and how a common man lands in there. His plight there and how he makes his cool with the way things are. His trials to fight the system and his failures. The end result is not always very happy.
This movie is well directed. Neil Nitin Mukesh has done a fantastic job. Throughtout the movie he hardly has any dialogues, but his eyes and his expressions speak wonders. Kudos to him for his performance. Mugdha Godse has a very small role and there is very little acting calibre that she could show off. The major part of the movie focusses on Neil and his life in the jail. Manoj Bajpai as usual has enacted his small role with power.
I liked the the scenes shot inside the jail. They seem authentic and plausible. One really feels sorry for the people in there, and that is where I think the movie gets its rewards. There are so many people in there who are innocent but have not been heard just because our judicial system is too slow, or rather moves only with the fuel called corruption.
I wouldn't say the movie is a must watch, but if you like applauding a brilliant performance, this movie is worth your time at least once.
