Mumbai mafia:police vs the underworld is a crime documentary film directed by raaghav dar and francis longhurst.
This docu does many things right and some things wrong. The police and their functioning is basically the centerstage here. Ravindra angre, pradeep sharma and all the other members of the encounter squad are interviewed and their views are thoroughly shown. They are unapologetic but also remorseful at the same time. 'Nobody likes to kill people' is what one police officer says. AA khan resigns even. This docu does humanize the police officials in a controversial encounter story. The gangsters are hardly focused upon. Dawood's background is touched and not detailed. Minty tejpal and hussain zaidi make appearances here and it was an honour to listen to them.
The screenplay during the bombay blast aftermath becomes slow in the first half. It shifts attention and loses its grip.
I would rate this docu 8.5.
