The film encompasses all the elements of bollywood in hollywood style. The film has many 1st to its credit.
1.Its probably the 1st Bollywood movie to have been shot completly in US.
2.Kaante is the 1st Bollywood to have the so called Hollywood feel and style. Not even Subash Ghai could do this in his movie ''PARDES''.
3.Has the best cinematography ever seen in any Bollywood movie and shall remain so for a long time. The camera angles, whether long shots or close ups are excellent. Many of the important scenes are shot in a revetting slow motion. All those who wanna learn cinematography better watch and rewatch this movie again and again. Specially the scenes in climax where everyone trains there guns at each other has captured beautifully. So also the scenes where everone come out and rejoices their successful bank loot only to be shocked.
4.Excellent background music in tune to the moods of the film.
5.Music is its 2nd best feature next to cinematography. Especially the songs-- Rama re/ Mahi ve/ Ishq samunder
6.Amitabh is usual self, Sunil sports a new style, sanjay is at his gusty best, kumar gourav is adequate, Lucky ali is understated.
- The plot though different, has many loopholes. but other aspects more than compensate for it. Some of the dialogues could have been moderated.
Overall the Movie gives your money's worth. So go and enjoy it.
