Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

just watch it!

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Vidhu Vinod chopra returned to his troubled homeland to shoot this tense action thriller, which turned out to be an international blockbuster, ranking among the top 50 rentals in the US and dubbed into most major languages around the world. Mission Kashmir deals with a policeman father and his militant son, pitted against each other, making personal the political tragedy that is Kashmir. Its use of cutting-edge cinematic techniques and state-of-the-art sound direction marked the arrival of Vinod as a fully international-caliber feature film director. This is the best Indian movie on terrorism in decades...the IMDb employee don't understand the power of this cinematic masterpiece,that is why so less points for this movie,it should be easily more than 8.0......I am amazed that a total cheesy movie like Khakee has 7.4 in IMDb but not Mission Kashmir.

I decided to continue my phase of watching Bollywood movies which I have not seen in a while and I stumbled upon Mission Kashmir , although I try to avoid very sensitive subjects regarding this the issue of Kashmir and the way Bollywood has a reputation for portraying Muslims these days I had decided to put these views to one side and view this movie and to my surprise it was nothing what I had expected it to. The film has elements of love,faith,hate and other various things so cleverly woven into it that it fits in very nicely and moves the film along at a good pace. The movie also wasted no time in getting under way with plenty of twist and turns and some good dialogue and truly some moving scenes and not to mention the fact that it was beautifully shot giving us the flora and fauna of Kashmir and the grim , ugly depiction of war. The acting from nearly everyone was up to scratch including Hitrik Roshan who I felt was a little cheesy and mousy at times but he carried him-self well, my only complaints were that the songs in this one were a little too long and that caused the film to drift a bit and I felt the Islamic terrorists were well again a little tooo clichéd as if Bollywood has been watching Hollywood a too much. But having said that , Mission Kashmir was defiantly an entertaining but yet at the same time moving, thought provoking picture which is must be checked out by Bollywood fans.MISSION: KASHMIR - 8.5 OUT 10TWO BRAVE MEN BATTLE EACH OTHER ...AND PARADISE BURNS!

Minor SpoilersIn Kashmir, Inayat Khan (Sanjay Dutt) is the supervisor of the police, married with the Hindu Neelima (Sonali Kulkarni) and having the beloved son Irfaan (Master Yogin Soni). After a mission against terrorists, Khan is hurt and a doctor, friend of his family, heals him, although the prohibition (called 'fatwah') by the terrorist Malik-ul-Khan (Puru Rajkumar), who fights for the independence of Kashmir. The doctor and his family are executed by Malik-ul-Khan, as an example to be followed by the other doctors. Some days later, Irfaan suffers an accident, and no doctor treats him, afraid of the 'fatwah' and the boy dies. Later, Khan gets an information where Malik-ul-Khan would be, and he goes to the place with his men wearing ninja mask. The terrorists are lodged in a house of a local family, and Khan and his men, blinded with the feeling of revenge, shoot in everybody in the house, including the father, the mother and the six years old sister of the young boy Altaaf (Master Mohsin). The boy becomes speechless and Neelima convinces Khan to adopt him. One night, the boy accidentally finds the truth and goes away from Neelima and Khan. Ten years later, Altaaf (Hrithik Roshan) becomes a terrorist, raised by the Afghan killer Hilal Kohistani (Jackie Shroff), and comes back with an assignment against Kashmir and a personal vendetta against his former father and presently Inspector Khan. This unknown movie is one of the best action movies I have ever seen. The direction and the performance of the cast are outstanding. The soundtrack is something wonderful. The dances, with colored costumes and magnificent choreography, are marvelous. The special effects are also great. The screenplay is excellent, having a complex and dramatic story, and in order to help other users to understand the plot of 'Mission Kashmir', let me provide some additional clarifications based on the Heritage Illustrated Dictionary. India is a sub-continent situated in southern Asia and comprising the Republic of India, Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Officially, India is called Republic of India. Kashmir, also called Jammu and Kashmir, is a territory occupying 86,024 square miles north of the Republic of India and between Pakistan and China; claimed as a state by India and partially occupied by Pakistan in a dispute dating from 1947. Therefore, the dispute in the movie is ancient. Although having a production of films greater than in Hollywood, movies from Indian 'Bollywood' are not common in Brazil. However, the sample that I have seen shows a high-quality industry with excellent movies. I agree with the comment of another user, who wrote that if 'Mission Kashmir' were an American movie, would be indicated (and even awarded) in many categories of Oscar. The unique negative remark is the end of the story, which is corny for my standards. But I do not know much about their culture and religion, and therefore the last scene might be acceptable for their beliefs. My vote is nine.Title (Brazil): 'Missão Kashmir' ('Mission Kashmir')Note: I received the following remark from an IMDb User on 14 Sep 2006:"Well India is not a sub-continent but a country recognised by U.N. since its independence from British colonial rule in 1947 . Pakistan , Nepal , Bhutan , Bangladesh are other U.N.-recognised countries , separated from the main country of India . Sikkim is a state in India."

It looked like a musical mission impossible 2. Acting was awful and the story looked like it was writen by Barbara Cartland. Fighting scenes were absolutely junk and were always intrerrupted by singing. I've seen a lot of bad movies but this one is defintely in the top ten.
