5.0 out of 5 stars
one of the better bollywood movies - highly recommended,
By Vijay R (United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: New York (DVD)
a great movie. taut direction, well made action sequences, good songs (especially the slow number tuune jo na kahaa). It doesn't take any sides (US Government or aggrieved muslims). both john abraham and neil nitin mukesh play their roles exceedingly well. the movie has some scenes of torture at gitmo, and violence, but none of the usual bollywood silliness like hero bashing the bad guys, rescuing his lady love, endless songs etc.

Good first Blu Ray from Yash Raj,
By
This review is from: New York [Blu-ray](Bollywood Movie / Indian Cinema / Hindi Film) (Blu-ray)
This is a good quality first Blu Ray from Yash Raj. Image and sound quality are up to snuff. As it should be with brand new films that had a digital intermediate which is the source for this BD. 2 negative points are present nonetheless:
- Yash Raj logo superimposed for some seconds at the start of songs. Unnecessary and annoying. Logos don't belong on Blu Rays! - No subtitles for supplements so some Hindi sections are incomprehensible if you don't speak Hindi A good first effort worth a purchase if you like the film.

Fantastic Cast - A Winner,
By Orton Redux (Lakeville, CT, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New York (DVD)
Fantastic cast, uniquely expert handling of terrorism - this one's a winner. As the other reviews have noted, all three leads are flat-out fantastic. While John Abraham has garnered the most praise, Neil Nitin Mukesh is just right as the hapless pawn in an FBI operation launched in the aftermath 9/11 to track a sleeper cell. As truths are revealed, and the noose tightens, you can sense his character gasping for air - reminiscent of Henry Fonda coming apart in Hitchcock's under-seen "The Wrong Man." All the characters in the movie, civilian and law enforcement alike, are wrong "men" at the wrong time. Structurally, "New York" is obvious and Abraham's flashback sequence threatens to fall apart more than once. Someone like Scorcese would have filmed the whole gripping story head in sequence, making us feel the layers of despair and betrayal chipping away at the promise of American dreams. Regardless, "New York" is powerful Bollywood with the courage of its human - and laudably humane - convictions.
