Wazir 2016 Hindi Movie Review by Top Critic On MovieTunner
Wazir Review Rating 2.0 | Suprateek Chatterjee (The Huffington Post) | Read Full Review
An ill-advised move, ultimately, given that Wazir is an insufferably dumb thriller with little-to-no emotional impact. It's a terrible start to the movie year. Wazir is a con job, endeavouring to show us layers that it chooses to do almost nothing with.
Wazir Review Rating 2.50 | Saibal Chatterjee (NDTV.com) | Read Full Review
Despite classy cinematography (DOP: Sanu John Varughese), a few moments of pure inspiration crafted by the lead actors and some effective punchlines (dialogue: Abhijit Deshpande and Gazal Dhaliwal), Wazir comes nowhere near checkmating the audience. It has its share of twists and turns, but barring the final gambit that spins the tale on its head, none of it is particularly startling.
Wazir Review Rating 3.00 | Shweta Kaushal (Hindustan Times) | Read Full Review
Apart from the smart storyline, powerful performances are the backbone of Wazir. The film's most interesting part lies in the fact that it is a revenge drama but the protagonists are not angry. Despite the smaller flaws and the slightly botched up ending, the film is definitely worth a watch.

There's enough to watch in 'Wazir' despite its flaws. It reaffirms something we've always known: that there's nothing to beat a plot-driven film. That the supreme importance in a thriller is to keep it going. And that strong performances are the pivot of any film: watching Akhtar and Bachchan joust and manoeuver around each other is this film's high point.

The main problem with Wazir is not that it's silly but that it tries too hard to be profound. However, it can't be denied that there was a promising story buried deep within this mess: two men, deeply scared by the loss of their children, trying to find solace in a friendship where one tries to find closure for the other.But Wazir's so unreal, so dumbed down, so predictable that there's nothing redeemable about it.
