New York Review / Comments

New York a bold attempt by director Kabir Khan on the aftermath of 9/11 and on the repercussions in the times to come.

Based on part of the political canvas of 9/11, it speaks of prejudices after the great human tragedy. It is a definite and very relevant subject about post-9/11 discrimination that have increased after the attacks.

It is an extremely taut and highly emotive piece of political drama, topical, meaningful, and entertaining, all at the same time.

A city in America was named New York to symbolize a fresh origin, a new start. New York the movie has done just that. After the long break in the multiplexes a strapping movie like New York has brought in all the zest and built the anxiety for the forthcoming movies too.

I would conclude by saying it is an important film.
