Gangs of Wasseypur II' is even better than its prequel. The complete competence with which Kashyap handles this subject is proof that he completely owned the plot and the narrative. There was so much going on in 'Gangs of Wasseypur I', that at times, it w

Sweeping story of gangs fighting over the coal capital of the country where rivalry and revenge cut deep and ‘coal’-blooded crimes are second nature. Shahid Khan is betrayed and his sons and grandsons swear to avenge his dishonour and death.

On the surface, Gangs of Wasseypur is a revenge saga, a tableau of vengeance between generations of gangsters. Scratch that surface and you'll discover more than just a grim portrait.

The texture is Tarantino, the story about a Godfather-esque mafia family, and yet the film is entirely Anurag Kashyap’s.

There is a lot of gunfire, but like the fine actors populating its sets, Wasseypur fires too many blanks.

Overhyped, but still managing to deliver a good, if not an emphatic, outing That's what 'Gangs of Wasseypur' turns out to be after an exhausting two and a half hours saga. No, I am not against films that are lengthy.
