now please do not start call me name like and unpatriotic and weirdo and more . the very length of this movie ( 4 hour . . ) be it big mistake . no edit at all seem like j. p. dutta fell in love with his project too much . even lagaan be 4 hour long but it be entertain and give a message as well . it base on true incident and real people . kudos to it and but be the repetitive war scene really need . on top of it the focus constantly shift from one battalion or squadron to another and it be impossible to keep a track of them all . between the skirmish and there be song about loneliness and lovesickness and related stuff . there be chummy conversation . in the beginning it give some relief from the violence but become so monotonous later that one could even correctly predict nature of the forthcoming talk . why be the soldier walk around a if they be lion in jungle and fully unaware that enemy be lurk somewhere near . and when they be shoot and it elicit sympathy but it seem unmindful of them to be so cocksure of their safety in the first place . music be melodious and the lyric be soulful but do not fit with the movie . good to listen to them on the soundtrack rather than in the movie . acting be the save grace represent from seasoned veteran like sanjay dutt and ajay devgan and to relative newbie like abhishek bachchan and akshaye khanna and everyone act like a pro . manoj bajpai and ashutosh rana deserve a special mention for lighten up the mood whenever necessary . dialogue range from brilliant ( from madhuri . with love . ) to illogical or monotonous ( pakistan se zyada musalman hindusthan mein hain ) . and the expletive spree consist of all the mc and bcs and c and f word wasn not really require . loc kargil attempt to provide a fitting tribute to the brave indian soldier and but try too hard and ultimately fails . indian soldier surely deserve a good tribute .
