    Didn't watch trailer but since guy is named Patel it's a comedy about him teaming up with a monkey to open a Hampton Inn?

    Looks great but the trailer is too long and shows too much. Should have been a minute shorter. Still, will watch.

    I've seen no sign of him. I've only heard of him.

    Watched tonight. The plot is very 1980s action flick. Fights are great but not enough of them. The character backstory is a little long and cumbersome. Some very beautiful women. I enjoyed watching an action movie set in India. Loved the warrior trannies, **** the woke-haters. I’ll give it a B.

    It's worth a watch for sure. I thought it was a unique Indian interpretation of John Wick. And, the dog lives (I think). Fight scenes were good. I thought Dev Patel was outstanding in this role. B+

    IMO it was more like The Raid: Redemption. If you haven't seen that....it's considered by many one of the best, if not the best, martial arts films, ever.

    Wow, yeah, that's a must-see for any action/martial arts fan. II is very good as well.

    I enjoyed this one, strong visuals with well done action with a fairly straightforward story. Dev Patel does solid work behind and in front of the camera, solid B+ for me....
