Rather than maintaining-the-mystery, the scheme of the storytelling switches to informing the viewer about the real identity of the characters more than the characters themselves...

Acid Factory features some Sanjay Gupta staples -- men in black, women in high heels, bikes, cars and an industrial setting. As an added bonus you get some stylish opening credits, edgier, cooler than what follow...

Acid Factory is about a bunch of bad guys locked up in one, (you guessed it!) acid factory. One of them however is an undercover cop. Sounds Kaante? Well, it is. The look, set up, soundtrack and characterisations, bear an overbearing influence of Sanjay Gupta's super stylised 2000 flick...

'Acid Factory' packs in an ample dose of stunts, action, flying bullets and pyrotechnics. So many cars get blown up that you lose the count by the end...

Acid Factory is silly. Unfortunately, it's not silly fun unless you enjoy really bad movies. It is more video game than movie, though video games have more interesting characters...

The movie has been lavishly shot and Sanjay Gupta maintains his style of presenting things like men in black, stunning women, trendy gears, chic jackets, cool bikes and cars...

The narrative has nothing new or exciting to offer and when it comes to the treatment of the film - it's the usual sepia tone and slow motion sequences with bombs blasting here and there for no apparent reason...

To be fair the film begins well with a superb opening credit sequence and coming straight to the point in the initial scenes itself but then as the suspense gets revealed not much is left to hold your interest till the climax...

What's even more unbelievable is that the story is a simple kidnap for ransom drama. But the intriguing plots within, layered between every scene is what is truly outstanding...

The film opens on a promising note but loses much of its momentum through a sluggish first half which tends to get repetitive. The adrenalin pumps up in the second half, with Irrfan Khan adding the razor's edge to the proceedings with his silken smooth crookedness...

Acid Factory switches between our many heroes posturing stylishly as they try to regain their memory or set action sequences, one for each star. The eventual climax is a let down, and you get the feeling of having been suckered by a cleverly narrated film with nothing to say really...

The idea of the story dictates the screenplay and the writer does a reasonably good job. The style of revealing goes well. The dialogues tend to be too filmy and at times fail to create the tension that is required...

The action is unbearable with cars being blown up as if you're in a film version of the looney dashing cars game. The direction is simply restricted to as the earlier Gupta films...

1 of 1 people found this review helpful "Acid Factory" is a borrowed movie coming from the director Suparn Verma. It can be given a chance by those who haven?t seen the original western flicks and love this intense, brain twister genre of movies where the hidden truth gets revealed in the climax.
