a remake can be successful . an adaptation can be successful . it isn not relevant whether it a remake or an adaptation . a good movie be a good movie and a poor movie be a poor movie and regardless . sarkar and i be afraid and be a very poor movie . first of all and just by make character look dangerous and or macho and they do not bring in an aura about them . what be so brilliant about nagre ( amitabh bacchan character ) that we should have be in aura of his power and what show the benevolence of the character . nothing . this fact be say by a commentator and amitabh keep give facial expression . now amitabh can give brilliant facial expression but why should it mean any thing if there be no history or story to go with it . there wasn not proper charecterisation of the character who work under arkar too . just because a man have spectacle and why should we assume he be wise . ] the flow of the movie be generally dullbecause scene from the godfather be create ( like the policeman slap abhishek bacchan ) and the old brother be kill by abhishek ( like fredo be kill on instruction of pacino ) but too much be seek to be pack into the movie with too little story and depth to go with it . that be indeed the problem . if you try to pack 3 hour of intricate detail like a godfather in 2 hour and that too with few dialogue and what you get be a highlight show from a cricket match and never make the full impact watch a full match will make .
