^^Only reason to that might be because it was not shot in India.

^^
Just look at the filming location of movie in IMDB link.
Even Dubai was looking bad than the Indian location. When in actual world its supposed to be quite the opposite :D

Agneepath 2012 : 0/10. Stopped it after and hour. What a lame fest.

Every one is over - acting, or looking idiotic. Totally warped story line.

Not that bad.:-D
Cinematography is quite good. Acting wise its ok.But thats it.The director must have forgotten that he is not directing a daily serial.:D
The film has been dragged too much unnecessarily.

... Filming took place in Dubai, Prague, Moscow, Mumbai, Bangalore and Vancouver. ...
... and the battle between Hunt and Hendricks in a Mumbai automated multi-level parking garage (which was constructed over a six-month period just for the film). The film climax scene was shot in Sun TV office, Bengaluru, India. ...

The original ageepath was also not that good.But atleast that has some awesome and funny dialogues.Even the cinematography there was also good.But amitabh and danny were truly amazing!Far superior than the new one.

Don't know man...my observations in 1 hour were:

1. Sanjay Dutt looked stupid and was way way over acting.
2. PC hardly looked / acted like a Marathi girl. Though she is hot. :)
3. Hritik, was dry as an Oak tree. Just a misfit. The type of character they tried to throw on him, and a flavor of Mithun in Prem Pratigya. See that.
4. The editing was bad.
5. Story flow was lame.

Saw: Don 2

I will give this a whooping 9/10. It had it all. Plus PC, looked like a nice biscuit. What a tight package. Action scenes well down, superb background score. And a nice twist of lemon at the end.

Yea, initially when it was released it came with a gruff voice for Amitabh. That did not go too well with the audience, and within a week they released Agneepath with his "original" voice. I have both versions with me...! :) The movie was a commercial flop, and forgotten. But later on down the years, it picked up a cult status, and for some god-forsaken reason it is now considered a classic. Amitabh, raked the National Award for it, and Mithun Da, got the Filmfare....!

I consider this the "BladeRunner" of Bollywood.

Lol where can i get that or see that original voice version?I think i have seen the gruff version.:D

Btw i agree with you to a certain extent about the new agneepath.If you have seen the old one then really i would say in the new one the hero and the villain looked plain stupid.Even the direction is very bad or slow unnecessarily.

But if you mask the original one then i would say it is just ok.

Enemy at the Gates.

Classic and one of the best.Jude Law with Joseph Fiennes & "major König" were Phenomenal.and those famous sniper moments!!
No doubt call of duty series adapted scenes from this movie twice in their games.
