Ram Gopal Verma, India's answer to Martin Scorsese

What a great film!

Without a doubt, Ram Gopal Verma is "the" most talented and innovative filmmaker in Bollywood. He is cut above the rest. His direction is just outstanding, almost to the point that he gets his work soo much noticed that it makes the viewer believe that the film's greatest commodity is its direction.

Performance wise, Ram Gopal Verma extracts the best performance from Ajay Devgan, and quite possibly the best performance of his career. Being the main evil character of this Hindi Film, you won't hear or see him in any loud actions which is usualy a norm amongst antagonist in Hindi Films. In Company, Ajay Devgan's character gets his evil and powerful character noticed through his creative thinking, clam and quietness. Ontop of that, his look and appearance in the film is fantastic. He almost looks like an evil character out of Martin Scorsese gangster film. Truly, Ajay Devgan has given another National Award worthy performance. Vivek Oberoi is superb. Being his first film, he acted like a true professional. At some times, he reminded me of Manoj Bajpai from Satya. Even Vivek's overall look and appearance in Company was great, something new that maybe others will shadow in there films to creat that Indian Natural Born Killer look. Mohanlal is just Mohanlal. His onscreen presence if full of electricity, he reminded me of Amitabh Bachchan. Despite the fact that he had weak hindi dialogue delivery, his onscreen presence makes up for it, and a few scenes containing an interaction between him, Ajay's character, and Vivek's character were really powerful through dialogue.

Sandeep Chowta's background score for Company is really up-beat and catchy, it really uplifts the overall classy look of this gangster saga. And i just LOVE the dialogue that plays in the back "Sab Ganda Hai, Per Danda Hai Yha! Sab Ganda Hai, Per Danda Hai Yha!" (*SPOILER*)For those that have seen the film, have you noticed that everytime someone gets killed in the film, you would always see someone light up a cigarette afterwords, I don't know how this was a metaphor to anything related to the killings, but it was something really interesting which I noticed(*SPOILER ENDS HERE*).

Hemant Chaturvedi's cinematography is brilliant. The different angles he used with his camera to shoot many portions of film really makes the film looks something unique and special. It was as almost as if I was watching the hindi version of Steven Soderbergh's Traffic.

The interval climax of Company was so appalling, one of the best interval's I've seen since Gupt.

HOWEVER, this film is not even close to being flawless, which is unfortunate since its coming from Ram Gopal Verma. The film had bad editing (Chandan Arora). Some of the interesting features I saw on the pre-promotion of this film were not on the final product. And the script/story wasn't too strong as compared Anurag Kashyap's previous scripts for Ramu. There were some inconsistency in the film's story. IE.(*SPOILER*) Antra Mali going to Hong Kong to convince Ajay Devgan to change his mind on killing Vivek Oberoi, and when Ajay Devgan refuses, she herself gets killed when attempting to kill Ajay Devgan. This was not needed in the film, as later we find out something new develops between Ajay and Vivek's characters.(*SPOILER ENDS HERE*)

As far as I'm concerned, Ram Gopal Verma should stick with Anurag Kashyap, his scripts are far more convincing with excellent character development, and much more flawless story telling. And who better to bring them out with prefection but Ram Gopal Verma, and we've seen it happen in Satya and Kaun?

Overall, is this film better than Satya? NO WAY!! As good as Satya? Close, but not quite. I'd say it's the second best Gang-related film ever made in India thus far. And it's on the same level as Sarfarosh, interms of quality. Thus, Satya still remains Ramu's best film, and it seems that the only one who can compete and overlap Ramu is Ramu himself, with the help of a strong script writer (Anurag Kashyap), which was really missing in Company. On the plus side, Company is an example of Very Good(unique) Indian Cinema filled with top noch performances, excellent cinematography and dialogues and above all, great direction. These factors have uplifted the good(but not great) script. Company- A Law & Order Enterprise.

Rating: 9/10 (a classy gangster-saga)

Wow!

Ram Gopal Varma's latest offering 'Company' is probably one of the best Indian gangster films ever made (after Nayakan and Satya). This film is so well done that the viewers feel like they are watching real-life events. And people living in India will know that some of the events are actually inspired by real-life incidents, although the film does not admit it.

Company is the story of two friends - Malik (Ajay Devgan) and Chandu (Vivek Oberoi) - how they build up the 'Company' - Bombay underworld on a global scale and thus establish their supremacy. A small misunderstanding between them turns into a large scale mafia war. The cast in this film is great, a special mention must be made of Vivek Oberoi. The son of Suresh Oberoi (former Bollywood star) is talented and seems to have put in a lot of effort for his first film. I only hope he doesn't get type-casted in the future after such a hard-hitting role on debut. Ajay Devgan fits very well into the role of Malik, a cold blooded don who always means business. Manisha Koirala enacts the role of Malik's girlfriend pretty well and is refreshing. However, the biggest surprise of this film was Antara Mali. She has done a great job as Chandu's wife, and it only goes to show that there is no dearth of talent in the country.

The narrative is well paced, and the viewer never gets bored. Some people might find the absence of songs in the film annoying, but their presence would only hamper the pace of the film. The script is well written, and some of the dialogues are really memorable - for example, when Malik says "To forgive a friend's mistake is an even bigger mistake in the 'Company'". The background music by Sandeep Chowta really complements the plot and he certainly deserves some credit. But more than anything, it is Ram Gopal Varma's direction that needs to be appreciated. He has proved once again that with a good story, an excellent cast and a lot of determination, one can make a memorable film and defy some of Bollywood's age old norms. A special mention must also be made of Mohanlal. He is certainly one of the best Indian actors of all time and although his Hindi dialogue-delivery in Company is quite sloppy, he deserves a lot of praise for making a good effort. His portrayal of an honest, determined cop trying to eradicate crime in Bombay (loosely based on Sivanandan, Joint Commissioner of Police, Mumbai) is very well executed.

The film gives us an in-depth view into the dark world of Bombay Mafia, where only the fittest survive, and how their operations have spread on a global scale. One thing I found intriguing about this film was the role that mobile phones play, how everything can be controlled efficiently by just making one phone call, and how business deals and murders can be executed with, quite literally, just one push of a button.

Bottomline: This film is a must-watch. A landmark in Indian film-making, all thanks to Ram Gopal Varma. An easy 9 out of 10.
