First of all i wud like to congratulate Raja Sen and Rediff to be spot on with this review for a change. After criticizing "Sarkar" in cold blood and experiencing the fans ire after that Mr Sen has improved. Lets give credit where it is due. He has done a nice review of MWM. Anil as usual stands out as an actor. The plot has startling resemblance to a James Hadley Chase novel the title i dont remember but still it is a job well done. Suchitra and Nandana do a good job as well.Boman Irani as usual is excellent.
Just one note of caution guys. Go and watch this movie only if u like "Hatke Films" and dont take ur girl friends along.
We need these kinda cinema these days. Excellent performance by Anil Kapoor, he is till date a underrated actor...good roles can take him places. Movie is well directed and a feather in cap for RGV after the SUPERHIT 'SARKAR'.....
Looks like rediff do not like RGV factory. I read similer review of sarkar on rediff , u guys said its not a good movie , but yesterday I watched sarkar its one of the best movies from india.

It's not rediff,it's raja sen doesn't like!! Normally he gave harsh reviews on the directors other than from North India or Bengal. MWM escaped may bcoz of Anil kapoor!!! if u have any doubt, look at wat he reviewed on number of RGV, Priyadarshan films!!!
This film was first made in Telugu and some women organizations with the help of a dirty news channel cried like hell that the movie is so provocative it will encourage husbands to kill their wives. Hmm.. that was as stupid as it can get; I watched the movie and liked it. The reason I'm writing in tis comment is because te credit as you gave it to Jijy philips must actually go to Chakri(J D Chakravarthy) who directed the telugu version and also is the protoganist in the telugu version. The hindi versioon seems to be a frame to frame remake of the telugu version.
Raja Sen seems to have leart from his mistakes (Sarkar Review). This review actually does justice. Though I havent seen the movie yet, my friends who always make it to the first day first show of an awaited film, have similiar view. This has raised my anxiety to watch the movie this weekend.
