The action sequences are gorgeous, applying a blend of gun-fu and merle fights that give the movie a realistic feel. Hemsworth plays his role well and his portrayal of the character allows the audience to not only understand him as a character but also the boy who he must save and his relationships with his co-workers. What stands out the most is the actor dynamic. I understand from some Hindi and Bangla natives that Hemsworth probably spoke the language better than his native co-stars. However, even with that flaw, the 2 main action leads did well. The Indian co-star played his role well enough and gave an all-out action-packed sequence every time he took centre stage. The film does not attempt to weave in unnecessary character backstories but blends them in as the movie progresses making it seamless and yet very good. Ovi gave a solid performance that made him both a vulnerable, yet also a very strong character in his own. What stood out for me was his confession that "I would realize he had just killed someone's father" (not exact words) and that was the humanization of not only perpetrators but also their families. A call back to that was when Tyler (Hemsworth) was fighting his friend and you could see that it wasn't about a druglord's son, but a young boy. While it may be reminiscent of Man on Fire in certain parts, it's a flick of its own. It follows the basic script, hero saves boy but departs from the usual hero lives to fight another day story-line. The 2 heroes in this story have different motives for being heroes, yet they express the motives in the same way; by fighting for what they believe. Also, a good reminder that there are more than one ways to win a war. Well done Hemsworth.
