Gangs of wasseypur is a 5 hours long film which is divided in to two parts and to be honest it never felt like it was overlong or unnecessary, Gangs of wasseypur is one of those few films that takes Indian cinema to the international level. There is a lot of influence from other classics which made Gangs of wasseypur a great film, like the influence of Scorsese's style of direction or Tarantino's way of showing minute communication between two characters or the idea of "no one wins" might be inspired from 'The Departed'. Films like Goodfellas may have some influence over it but still I think Gangs of wasseypur has done many things better than Goodfellas, the potray of violence with calm music and great acting is done better here, the depiction of the city and buildup is better than most of the films. And most importantly the 5 hours long runtime makes it more versatile towards character development, these great things are very much rare to find in most of the films, only a single film comes to my mind which surpassed it is a Brazilian film City of god and its obvious because the idea of making Gangs of wasseypur came from the film City of god which is in itself a great film. Talking about the acting, its outstanding, probably the best casting possible with great actors like Manoj Bajpayee, Pankaj Tripathy, nawazuddin siddiqui to name a few, the way they acted with great expressions, great delivery of dialogues and body language is unmatched till now. Its one the fewest films where you can sense the real feeling of the city, everything feels real and groundbreaking in every aspect. So finally I conclude myself and its offcourse highly recommended.

My Ratings - 9.8/10.
