After the draught at movie theaters, respite finally seems in sight. 'New York' has finally hit the theaters. In spite of the excessive hype surrounding its release, the movie surely came across as a winner. Based around the 9/11 attack on World Trade Center, the movie has you hooked from the very first scene itself. The first half of 'New York' is simply amazing and keeps you on the edge, constantly guessing what is going to happen in the very next scene. By the time interval comes, you are looking at a big shocker and eagerly wait for the few minutes of break to be over soon.
Talking about performances, there is not even a single actor in the film who disappoints you. Right from the beautiful Katrina to the intense Irrfan, nobody gives a reason to complain. John Abraham, often taunted for his expressionless face, has delivered one of his best performances till date. While Katrina, for the first time, delved into serious stuff and managed to carry her role with élan. On the other hand, Neil proved his mettle one more time and Irrfan, once again, impressed us with his powerful acting, complete with dry humor. In short, this movie surely merits a visit to your nearest theater.

The pace is quite slow, as compared to the first half, and even some predictability creeps in. Still, it is not without its fair share of engrossing scenes. Especially the torture scenes seem to send a shiver down your spine. The wry humor in the movie is just perfect, neither becoming slapstick, nor getting mislaid. As for the climax, it was not only unpredictable, but a little melodramatic (after all, it is a Bollywood film!). However, it has been executed to perfection.
