A Must See... superb acting by Shah. Diaglogues are perfect, fast paced, it is difficult to blink an eye, keeps you engrossed throughout the movie. You definetely get your moneys worth and more. his is a movie that captures your imagination in a way that big bollywood and hollywood movies don't always.
Shoot on sight is an intense movie that revolves around a Muslim police officer following the events of the UK Underground bombings in 2005. The plot is so really interesting and the issues raised are especially intriguing. The movie itself was well made. Some of the actors performances including Naseerudin Shah and Om Puri were spectacular. Some of the scenes were so intense I was literally
Shoot on Sight was a well done movie, I went to randomly see it with some friends, definately was an intense experience
Excellent Movie!
This movie is a MUST SEE! I was able to catch this movie in an advanced screening. I did not know much going into it but I ended up really enjoying the movie. The acting was excellent. The issues raised throughout the movie were especially intriguing and made you really think. This movie shows both sides of the terrorist issue from the stand point of Muslims which I have never seen done before.

Starts out as a thriller inspired by that city's 2005 Tube and bus bombings but gets bogged down in a family soap opera. Full Review

It's earnest, well-intentioned and scrupulously even-handed, in the style of made-for-TV problem movies. Full Review
