For the movie to pickup it needs to be playing at theaters. The reason I have not seen the film yet is I cannot find a theater nearby that is still showing it in just the second week. I actually went yesterday night to watch the film at the nearby multiplex and found out that the film was not showing anymore.:(

ok, finished watching and I want my money back :( snatching my hair out. Idea was good but they should have left few suspenses for end, it would have been more of a surprise if this all doing was shown at end. acting is good from all but movie, you just wait for it to get better. as every character in movie had bad luck, so is the film itself at the end.

Watched it on DVD other day and quite liked it. It's a good movie although if you seen these kind of movies before you kind of find it a bit predictable too. The opening and ending reminded me of Carlito's Way; the premises is set right at the start and you know what’s going to happen at the end you just need to know how it happens and Johhny Gaddaar does this very well. Definitely a must watch.

Agreed with all that it is quite enjoyable, but there was something missing that's hard to pulse upon. After Ek Hasina Thi, I was expecting another roller-coaster ride from Sriram. Dharmendra and Rimmi were poor choices for their respective roles. Would have preferred someone sexy, dangerous and voluptuous for Vikram's love interest. :D 8)

Too often, Johnny Gaddar just lumbers around. A little too much plot for my liking. Nitin Neil Mukesh, or Neil Mukesh Nitin or Neil Nitin Mukesh, whatever his name is, may go places, but this flick was too risky a launch pad.

Watch Manorama:under 6 feet! Nice interesting watch, well made film in its Genre! Rajhsthan never looked like this before! I sat through, and liked it! even the story was nothing new but style/filming was very good indeed!

Wow!! What a film!! I am speechless! I think, RAmu should become chela ka chela, for some good lessons in film making.

Excellent film, follow up after EHT!

A real intelligent, written, directed film..Highly recommended!

Man, after Manorma, another Acer!

If only 1/4th of Hindi movies would be like these, bollywood ka kalyan hojayega!

Baqqi I give 50% to mindless masla too!

Do not miss it! I really mean it!

Great film, one that deserved a lot of success. 'Ek Hasina Thi' is one of my favorite thrillers of all time and this is a good follow up to that. Although I think I still like 'Ek Hasina Thi' a little more than this one.

I've watched Johnny Gaddaar three times already :-)
Last time I fell in love with a movie was with Lamhe and Lord-Of-The-Rings-II

Meanwhile the director Sriram's next is Agent Vinod viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9888
