Karam (New Single Dvd, Hindi Language, With English Subtitles, Released By Shemaroo)

Forget about the image on the DVD cover: this is not the typical sappy, glamorized RomCom you might expect. Unlike many Bollywood flicks, Karam actually has a good bit of violence and action in it (not like in some US movies, just enough to be engaging), and the story is interesting. John Abraham plays a hired killer for a crime lord, and after really, really screwing up (in a shocking twist, seriously), he wants out. But his boss isn't letting him off the hook so easily and forces him do "one last job", and that one's a biggie. John refuses to do it but when the crime lord kidnaps his wife (Priyanka Chopra), John is left with no choice...Karam is well scripted, well acted, and well paced. Other than a few songs - which absolutely don't fit into the overall feel of this movie, but are pretty much mandatory in Bollywood productions - you may just be surprised about how dark and serious Karam is.DVD quality itself is good. Amazon warns that this movie is manufactured "on demand" on a DVD-R. (What, like some guy is burning discs on his home computer?) However, it looked and played just like any regular DVD you'd buy from a mainstream manufacturer.

Two of my favorite actors, John Abraham, Priyanka Chopra I enjoyed watching them but... It was ok. I just would have liked to see him as this super assassin kickin' butt more so in the beginning of the movie and her character feisty and capable of handling herself in fight. The special effects weren't the best. The songs were ok.

I loved John Abraham in this movie

Love, love, love this ;movie! As far as foreign films go, this one is on the top! He kinda reminds me of Antonio Bandaras with his acting and the music and singing was beautiful. I would watch this again!

Waste of talented actors, story line was horrible. It was just pure violence, it made no sense. I thought it was a love story NOT!

Good plot, but poorly executed. Made worse on prime video when film developed a 2 minute, eight second delay between the the subtitles and the film dialogue, with the subtitles being the apparent culprit, appearing to run in advance of the film plot.

Nice entertaining movie

I enjoyed this movie. Good action and storyline.
