Stylish and initially intriguing with a decent performance by Aamir Khan (and his mustache), but underwhelming, banal, tedious and lacks palpable suspense.

Talaash will confound, bewilder, intrigue and enthral you. A film worth thinking about.

It's very much a Hindi film, but updated and delivered with conviction and style.
