I like Prakash Jha's films. Gangajal was impressive to say the least. Rajneeti is an average film. Liked the direction and camera work. But acting, it left a good amount to be desired. You can also find shades of The Godfather and a very little of Guru with Mahabharatha thrown in between in fair amounts. Also, the scenes moves quite fast. Story did hold me that much, but I also did not get distracted too much. But yea, a one-time see movie.
Ranbir - Not too much force in his acting. As one of my friends put it, did not feel like he was shrewd enough to play 'rajneeti'.
Katrina - Did best what she had to, show her pretty face!
Nana Patekar - Wasted skills. Only thing he did was smile and escort people holding their shoulders.
Ajay Devagan - One of my favourite actors. Again wasted. Only frowned in the entire movie.
Naseruddin Shah - Guest appearance. Again wasted.
Manoj Bajpai - Best amongst the set. Justified his role nicely, especially showed his angst quite nicely.
Arjun Rampal - Average.
Give it 3 out 5. Watch it, you will not get bored, but you will not be speaking much about the movie after you come out of the movie hall either. As for me, watched in 100 bucks, so worth it
