An average movie that could have been done better.................. For an Abbas-Mustan Burmawala Bros. movie,you expect thrills with twists & turns.Players has those,but not enough to surprise the audience to a great extent.With movies like Soldier,Ajnabee,Race there were shocking moments which had the so-called "woooooo"factor in it.Players fails in this aspect.More to say the music was highly uninteresting ,to be fair unnecessary. "The Italian Job" was a great movie with everything-story,direction,actors dealt with perfection.While Players did copy its story ,direction-wise it was all rite,but the major problem was its casting.You may be shooting in Russia,New Zealand or any other wonderful place,but when you have an inexperienced and weak cast,the movie shows its sign of bleakness.While Abhisek,Neil,Bipasha were good,Sonam,Sikander and Omi Vaidya(the all-time irritating guy) were wrongly casted.Bobby Deol,a tremendous actor by himself(likes of Barsaat,YPD,Soldier) was wasted.Comic timings of Johny lever seems to be deteriorating day-by-day.
All-in-all Players did try to repeat the feat what The Italian Job had,but failed due to some insensitive decisions(casting,music).
One time watch movie............hey,just a second........not in theatres,just wait for its satellite release
