Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Ram Gopal Varma's Satya is said to be the movie of the decade, no doubt RGV is considered to be the introducer of Mumbai Noir genre and he is the master of Underworld Crime movie, the way he takes the story is so interesting and has very much soft flow with strong energy that gradually makes anyone to get easily involved in the movie, JD Chakravarthy is proved as an outstanding performer with his portrayal as Satya, Urmila had done a neat and very effective acting, such gorgeous performance is surely appreciable but the real star of this movie is the role Bhiku which was played by an extremely talented actor Manoj Bajpai, his performance is just like the tutorial for all those budding artist to learn what is the involvement into the character mean. The making is also so perfect and realistic such a rustic and raw portrayal of the movie truly stamp the impression on the viewer, overall it's the masterpiece.

A master piece in the gangster type movies,Seem like really type movie because each scene connected and logical to others,There is much to say about movie but one silent indirectly observed theme that usually happened, when Sayta tells about his job and Police comes, he runs away and reaches gang spot but when he hears that Biko has been killed, at that time Satya don't think about Vidya that what is going happened with her, his concerned only to kill Bahu Das Chawale which is tough to kill. After to kill, then he thinks about Vidya.He give the priority to Biko than Vidya.

When I first heard about this movie years ago when I was studying, I became very eager to watch it. No doubt it was a masterpiece for Indian cinema. Ram Gopal Verma made a movie that sent shock waves all around. His perception of the mumbai's underworld gangland gave a very realistic picture to everyone. There has rarely been a movie that released since then that has been able to match up to the true authenticity of this movie. Ram Gopal Verma opens the door to a world where criminals and gangsters do not walk around in suits and live life in luxurious lifestyles. They maintain a low profile. It is a story of conflicting ideologies and gang rivalries. As far as my opinion is concerned, this is undoubtedly one of Verma's best works till date. Movies like 'D', 'Vaastav' and 'Gang' were good but attempted to continue the genre's popularity as long as it would last. Not many directors have ventured in to this field of late due to the fact that there has not been much of a cult following. A great detail of research was undergone to bring the characters and the story to life. Both the actor Saurabh Shukla and writer Anurag Kashyap wrote a mind blowing script incorporating real life incidents and personal knowledge and experiences.************************SPOILERS AHEAD*********************** This is more of story about how one man becomes an influential member in a gang more than climbing the ranks to the top senior level. He achieves this through attaining friendship with his friend. J.D Chekravarthy is a man who comes to Mumbai to escape a bad phase. He becomes a object of humiliation and endure bullying tactics by Jeeva who is a local don in the area, after he gets a job in a bar. By fighting back he ends up in jail and befriends Bajpai. who is a gangster. Both become close and upon release satya is given a flat and involvement in the gang itself. In pursuit of revenge and to gain his self esteem back he kills Jeeva. This leads to a gang war erupting between them and Guru Narayan (Jeeva's colleague). Later a new police commissioner comes in to town who vows to take out the underworld elements. This however puts the gang in to making some important decisions regarding their survival.Bajpai's senior is the politician 'Namdev', whose orders and commands are not obeyed which eventually leads to the downfall of the syndicate.**********END OF SPOILERS********************************The movie is truly a work of art and delivers a big impact. The movie progresses at a slow pace, but much time was required to set the scenario. Upon viewing one will realise that the production value of the movie was quiet low. But this does not prevent the movie from loosing any quality. I noticed a slight similarity to 'State Of Grace (1990), when the characters were being killed towards the end. The reason appeared to be the same. Chekraverty's performance was very wooden. I personally felt that he was the wrong choice for the role. His emotional acting abilities were very amateur in a few segments. Someone who had a more deeper understanding of the role and was experienced would have done a better job. It was his decisions that lead the syndicate to tore apart. The movie clearly does tend pose the moral message that if commands and orders of the senior level individuals are not abided to, then this can put gang member's lives at stake. Verma's directorial skills are at their full potential. Many of the close up shots are very moving and help to enhance the tension in the scenes to the highest level. It is this level of direction that is lacking from most of his movies these days. It just does not appear to have the same quality. Fans of Urmila will be disappointed as she is playing a non glamorous role and downed in to a saree. Her scope is limited as she only plays a love interest. However her involvement in the climax changes everything. Bajpai became famous with his portrayal of the gangster. He became an idol. The background score suited the mood of the scenes and situations perfectly. However the tone was slightly high in a few scenes. Truly this movie is a must see !!!!!!!!

Great movie, absolutely flawless, gritty and tight storyline and I loved Bhiku Mhatre (What happened of him? He is nowhere to be seen nowadays). The realism came in as a welcome relief in the backdrop of candy floss movies doing the rounds those days...but pray tell me, why wasn't a single Muslim gangster used in the main gang? Coz the underworld has more than a fair representation of the minority community...RGV seems to have a bias in movies against you know who....and this is just one example... Having said that, this movie scores yet again in terms of character details, using the "actual" Mumbai settings, which set a trend for other film makers to follow.
