Agreed that film MEERUTHIYA GANGSTER is a film for niche audience & cinematically it's not a very polished product, yet it is a content- rich, gritty, quality cinema, one of the better films this season. The Debutant Director has attempted something praiseworthy though nothing new and that is he has not gone into the dark zone of criminal thrillers, instead he kept the treatment light, interspersed with good, realistic comic elements. Plus he attempted to make a crime film that can be viewed with the family ( & i think it is the first time ever in the history of Indian cinema?) Yes, the film has saved itself from cuss words, filthy language, objectification of women, bar dancers-pimps- prostitutes, vulgar scenes, excessive violence & blood shed. Kudos ! I wonder, how come a whole lot of critics went against this film and has given it low star rating. Is it just because apart from Anurag Kashyap as a presenter, there is no big name attached with this film ? I smell a rat.
score 6/10
