If you thought Pokiri was inspired by The Departed (remake of Infernal Affairs), check this out! The former had informers on both sides of the law, while this has just one. Almost a Tarantino’ish version of The Departed – complete with a pedophile couple in place of a sodomy sequence (Pulp Fiction) – its loaded with so many F words that in India it may have a non-stop ‘bleep’ track. Paul Walker, as usual, looks blank while Cameron Bright, as the kid-on-the-run is endearing. The film works thanks to its manic speed and a multitude of interesting characters, notably Ivan Yugorsky!
