We are quickly led into the lives of the crew and before you know it, they have an assignment where they stand a chance of making Rs2.5 crores in just four days, with an equal share of Rs 50 lakhs each. But as is always the structure of a heist film, there is a double cross, and someone in the team gets killed.
Johnny Gaddaar assumes that we're a thinking, breathing audience and not just popcorn-munching machines, as it holds the audience's hand and leads them throughintricate planning, and a lot of twists and turns.
Writer-director Sriram Raghavan cues us in on certain details, but keeps most of niceties private. This way, we're always kept on the edge of our seats. We think we know what's going on, but by the time we find out that we're wrong, we've been introduced to a whole new bag of tricks.
The performances are top notch in all departments but Dharmendra could have been given a fewer English lines. He says 'Stupid, idiot,' in the famed monotonous 'Kutte, Kamine' mode. Not happening Dharampaaji.
To be honest, Johnny Gaddaar isn't exactly what you could call a 'great' movie. It's overwritten and over directed for most parts. Yet, against the odds, it works in its own quirky way.
