Jail is grim, gritty and stark, and, despite a saggy middle, very watchable. Go to Full Review

Balls 01/07/2024 me and my dad watched this movie and he (a former wife beater) can confirm this movie is so unrealistic that the director might aswell beat his wife and see what its really like ps hes not former :) See more 05/27/2010 Realistic acting by Neil Nitin Mukesh......And the film showed the real life in Jail....... See more 05/18/2010 Very realistic acting by Neil Nithin Mukesh. He was amazing in New York, so I had high expectations from this one, which he absolutely lived up to. The young actor has a promising career in front of him. Mugdha Godse, who I had never heard of before, delivered a horrendous performance. Such dry acting that I couldn't feel her character's presence at all. The mother was even worse. Also, wish there were more than 2 good songs (pick the old Lata Mangeshkar and whatever song that is is 100% doomed for failure). Director Madhur Bhandarkar delivered a spectacular representation of a life in jail, presenting everything with realism and detail. However, why couldn't Mukesh just say "get me a lie detector and you'll know i'm innocent?" right from the beginning? See more 03/12/2010 A very intense movie. See more 03/07/2010 Day : Sunday Date: 8 Nov 2009 Time: 8.15pm With: Zehra Mami, Zehra Mamis Mom, Queenie Maasi, Shiraz Uncle On : DVD Bhandharkar has done it again. Awesome plot. See more 02/14/2010 Good enough movie . director could have done some more to show the other kind of atrocities in jail .. nevertheless can see it once. See more Read all reviews
