State Of Siege :26/11 Web series is centered around the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks. The series is binge worthy by all means and is tense, thrilling and Tantalising throughout the very end, from the third episode onwards. State of Siege: 26/11 perhaps contains some of the best ever action sequences, that is shot for and made in India, in its motion picture history till date. Though the series has some minor flaws and short comings, it is a terrific watch, when we sum up things considering the budget.
State of Siege: 26/11 rides on its strengths and the first one is its cinematography, especially for its terrific action scenes. Screenplay is very well adapted and does not deviate one bit from the event, as I have read multiple books on the subject I can vouch you for that. Production design was in fact very good considering the budget so was the costumes for the commandos. But make up was slightly overdone for the actors. Music was a totally mixed bag as some scenes were totally outstanding and some totally garish to my liking. Editing was precise and crisp.
Casting and acting were mainly based and done by B-list actors, but to be frank they have tried their level best honestly, with some excellent & strong performances among several cheesy ones, had some proper actors been casted for, State of Siege: 26/11 would have been a totally different presentation altogether.
Overall, A must watch series for all Indians who lived through and followed the cowardly attacks in 2008. Full credit to director Abhimanyu Singh for his treatment and presentation of state of siege 26/11, considering the shoe string budget. Highly Recommended for all action movies fans living in India and abroad, State of Siege: 26/11 contains the best ever action choreography ever made for the Indian screen by a mile. For a better viewing experience watch episodes 4 to episode 7 together. 7.4 stars out of 10 for this must watch web series.
