Watch Garv: Pride and Honour For Free

I wanted to but couldn't!

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Back in those days, Salman Khan was a highly popular star, and to his credit he had hardly been part of those big-budget films made by Chopra, Ghai and the likes. Khan is a good entertainer, and a great strength of his is that he never seemed to consider himself a particularly good actor, neither did he really pretend to take the acting part of acting too close to heart. It was all about a good presence and a likably honest persona. In this film he actually does seem to try to show the opposite, but sadly he never manages to turn it into something particularly special since the film is not very good in the first place. Khan apparently just doesn't have the right flair for choosing the right movies. This is the same age old story of pride and honour, love and sacrifice, principles and values, rape and revenge, and they hardly ever ring true. They could have, had they been tackled by a more competent and imaginative writer or director. But the result is a stale, highly outdated film which doesn't work in spite of Khan's presence. The story lacks any possible depth and conviction. Then we have the usual heroine, played by Shilpa Shetty, whose appearance is basically restricted to the lavish songs. Speaking of songs, there's a nice number called "Hum Tumko Nigahon Mein". The action scenes are not that bad, relatively speaking, but they are typically exaggerated and all stretched out, just like the film itself.

Salman Khan shines in these kinds of roles; his performance is good as expected. Amrish Puri also did well in the movie along with Arbaaz Khan and Shilpa Shetty. Mukesh rishi was also OK. Others such as Farida Jalal and Anupam Kher were half-decent too. There's only one good song in the movie: 'soniye to soni'. The story is good and so too are the dialogues, most of which are delivered by Salman Khan. What is best about the movie is the action. A lot of people will say 'ouch' quite a lot throughout the movie and/or turn their head the other way. It is, after all, quite gruesome.Verdict:you must watch it if you're not squeamish. Since i'm not squeamish, I give it 8/10

If there are two idiot actors in Indian films, the credit should go to Salman (Shirtless) Khan and Arbaaz (goofy) Khan. The 23 odd reels, are based on these two imbeciles walking around with a chip on their shoulders, as if they are the only conscious of the society. As usual there is ethnic diversity in the names, and ethnic conflicts that seems to be indigenous to the police force in a big city where as other cities don't seem to have these conflicts or the conflicts are not subject for a thriller as in this Magnum Trash called "Garv-Pride and Honor". As usual the politicians are corrupt and the cops are ordained from GOD to bring good will and peace to this Metropolis. Apparently corruption is very rampant where a policeman would rip his shirt off denouncing the hierarchy, and it takes only few phone calls by Salman, the guy is back to work-it is amazing what a lousy script can do to a Hindi movie. The movie is for someone who has absolutely and positively nothing to do and have fetish for looking at two degenerate morons for actors. These maggots would be better off selling kabobs in Kabul.

This movie was junk, an absolute waste of time. Salman Khan must be the most narcissistic male alive. He constantly has to preen in front of the camera, flexing his muscles while trying to suck in his gut. The movie does have some positive messages such as the need to not scapegoat police for everything and treat them according to double standards. But the fight scenes are garbage, the melodrama is childish, and the gang-rape scene was salacious trashy cinema intended purely for shock value, just like go-go dancing scenes with those ugly dancing girls. Salman's receding hairline and growing gut mean that he'll have to find another career sometime soon, because he won't be tenable on screen for much longer.
