Not sure why this movie gets all the bad reviews that it has spurred?? Is it a great movie no, but for an movie that runs over two and a half hours it kept my interest which at that running time is hard to do. Let me preface this by saying that I dislike Bollywood movies in general and I have never seen the original movie this is supposed to be remaking, so my critique has very little value in those aspects, rather my remarks come from the enjoyment or lack thereof i had while watching the movie. The acting at times wasn't the greatest but it was far from bad. The story was interesting enough albeit a bit mushed together (even with the 2hour and 40 min run time). I really enjoyed the villain played by Amitabh Bachchan he played the role perfectly. Why this movie is on the IMDB bottom 100 (currently at #12) is beyond my comprehension. Perhaps the original movie is so well loved that people are upset that this one wasn't as good but by no means is this a bad movie if you have no knowledge of the original. Oh yes the one thing that really ruined the movie for me and earned it a lower mark than I might have given it otherwise was the terrible subtitle translation. I don't know how accurate it was because I don't speak a lick of Indian, but the English was terrible...I had to stop and think about many sentences because the grammar was so bad.

Ram Gopal Varma rejigs Ramesh Sippy's Sholay for 2007, and comes up with a clunker.

Sholay set new benchmarks in entertainment; Aag is content at remaining just another bad film.

Rated: 1/4

You may agree with Narsimha'a wife when she chivvies him about his Babban obsession: "Babban! Babban! Nonsense! Waste of time!"
