Something somewhere must have terribly gone wrong right at the time when the director was perceiving this plot. The movie, that was supposed to be the remake of one of the most loved movies in cinema, fails to deliver in every aspect of movie making. The best of the artists could also not pick up the tuning, that simply goes on to show that the movie in itself was a grave mistake.The editing is poor. Direction is crap. Acting is out of this world(omg)! The characters who are supposed to look scary force people to laugh on the stupidity of their dialogues and costumes.I wouldn't watch the movie even if someone paid me the cost of the tickets or even gave me a free burger with it.

To paraphrase Anupam Kher after the much anticipated film "Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja" bombed big time "When a movie becomes hit, anything and everything about it is appreciative..... however when a movie sinks, you will see it laden with flaws". Sholay both old and new is the best example. There have been numerous attempts where classics have been touched (Devdas & Don) and emerged victorious primarily because extra precaution was exercised. Even interpretations like Maqbool & Omkaara (and Bergman's Romeo & Juilet) were acknowledged and applauded. Wonder why RGV couldn't see it coming... Vinaash Kaale Vipreet Buddhi!A lot of has typing skills have been put to test so I won't go much that route. Every frame shouted "FOUL!" and yes, the only magical moments were when Big B appeared in the frame. He gave more than 100% but one swallow doesn't make a summer. Also it brings up a million dollar question: can Big B don the antagonist hat at all?In the process of construction of scenes, the emotional content has gone missing. For instance, why worry if Thakur shaves or not. In the first viewing these nuances doesn't matter. Only in repeat viewing, the human mind begins to play devil's advocate. To paraphrase Big B's lines from Silsila "Main Aur Meri Tanhai Aksar Yeh Baatein Karte Hain, Tum Hoti Toh Aisa Hota, Tum Hoti Toh Waisa Hota, Tum Is Baat Par Hansti, Us Baat Par Hairan Hoti....."The interpretation of Aag is on similar lines... "Yeh Hota Toh Kaisa Hota... Woh Hota Toh Kaisa Hota!!" IMO - Aag was a result brain-storming exercise with RGV playing chess on both sides.

Truly shows that hype is not everything. Shows by and by what a crappy actor abhishek is and is only getting movies because of his dad and his wife. Amitabh as always is solid. Ajay Devgan as always is shitty and useless and the new guy is a joke. The leading lady is such a waste of an actor. Such pathetic movie from such a revered director and from such a big industry. With movies as such I have decreased the amount of bollywood movies I watch.RGV has been making very crappy movies for a while now. Time to get different actors. Hrithek anyone? Bollywood needs Madhuri and Kajol back. Every other leading lady is a half-naked wanna be. Pffffft.
