The basic plotline of one brave commando saving the nation at all costs from a series of terror attacks, is trite, but that is not the bigger problem here. The second half offers some twists and turns however, the story is so stretched by then, even the high-octane action doesn’t keep you as invested. The first half of the story has ample action, but it takes time to gather momentum and draw you in. Gulshan Devaiah has impressed with his performances in the past, but here, he doesn’t quite stand up to the barbaric and menacing character (Buraq Ansari).Īditya Datt’s ‘Commando 3’ uses cliché tropes that action thrillers with such subjects usually do, like the hero making a grand entry while a girl is being harassed by a man, scenes replete with loaded patriotic dialogues and many such. But, it’s refreshing to see the women kick some butt, in tandem with the action boys in a hardcore action film. The leading ladies, Adah Sharma and Angira Dhar, too, pack a punch, though sometimes it seems like they are trying too hard. Vidyut Jammwal as Commando Karanveer Singh Dogra scores on every action scene, taking it a notch higher - with his smooth and slick kicks, punches and back flips – it’s undoubtedly a sure-shot adrenaline rush.
What works is that the third instalment of the series stays true to its core – it delivers heavy-duty action, with raw hand-to-hand combat and swift chases. It will take some nerve to sit through those. The violence in 'Commando 3' is brutal, bloody and graphic in some scenes. The duo receives able support from their British counterpart, Mallika Sood (Angira Dhar) in this mission. In a bid to avert the impending terrorist attack, the bureau ropes in Karanveer Singh Dogra (Vidyut Jammwal), who is accompanied by Bhavana Reddy (Adah Sharma), to get to the root of the plan and bring the culprit to justice.
REVIEW: 'Commando 3' gets into the thick of things right at the beginning when a police office chases down a group of misled youngsters, which, in turn, leads to a bigger revelation. If a weapon has a total of 1000 or more round, they would be displayed as infinity (∞).STORY: Upon realising that a massive terror attack is underway, the Indian Special Forces send their best Commando, Karanveer Singh Dogra, to London to nab the mastermind.
