MOVIE REVIEW: Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta has already made two films in this genre Shootout at Lokhandwala (2007) as producer and writer and Shootout at Wadala (2013) as director, producer, and writer. Mumbai Saga has nothing new to offer, it’s just another average masala entertainer.
The first half holds our attention as fierce John Abraham delivers a good performance as a dreaded gangster. But he struggles in the emotional scenes. Post interval, Emraan Hashmi steals the show with his screen presence, action, and dialogue delivery.
But the second half lacks a gripping narrative and the screenplay becomes obtuse. Also, there was much room for tighter editing. But if you are a fan of gangster dramas then it is definitely a one-time watch for you. The cinematography is good. The music and background score are just fine.
Kajal Aggarwal manages to shine in her limited role but Anjana Sukhani hardly got 1 or 2 scenes. Other impressive performances came from Mahesh Manjrekar and Amole Gupte. Prateik Babbar and other supporting casts have given an average performance.
