Siddartha (Dhritiman Chatterjee) is forced to discontinue his medical studies due to unexpected and brutal death of his father. He has to now find a job in stead. In one job interview, he is asked to name the most significant world event in the last ten years. His reply is 'the plain human courage shown by the people of Vietnam', instead of the expected - man landing on moon. The interviewer asks is he is a communist. Needles to say that he does not get the job.
He reaches a coffee shop where he is offered to work for the communist party. When he does not show any interest the party leader tells him about an opening for a medical representative. To escape from the heat and have a snooze, he goes in to a cinema. As a government propaganda newsreel is being shown before the feature, a bomb explodes in the cinema hall. In the stampede that follows, Siddartha, breaks his watch. He goes to a watchmaker but he cannot afford the repairs.
Waiting to cross the road, he notices a sexy girl. He drifts back to his days as a medical student in a flashback. The professor is explaining anatomy of female breast. Many flashbacks and dreams occur to Siddartha through the film.
On his way to hostel, he has an encounter with some hippies. Along with an ex-classmate, he goes out to see a porn film but to their disappointment, the film turns out to be not-so-pornographic.
In such constant wandering in a Calcutta, disintegrated relationships with his sister and a Naxalite (militant communist) brother, his friendship with Keya is only thing that keeps him sane.
Keya is a simple girl. They enjoy each other's company but they cannot make any commitment to each other due to the circumstances.
After yet another attempt at a job interview, Siddartha leaves the big city to take a modest job of a salesman in a far off small town. He writes to Keya that he still cherishes their relationship. And that he has heard that bird call again but this time it is for real, and not his mind. After completing the letter, he comes out to the balcony of his modest room. The bird calls again. He also hears the sombre chants of a funeral procession. As he turns to the camera, the picture is frozen.
This is the first film of the Calcutta Trilogy. The other two were and Seemabaddha (Company Limited, 1971) and Jana Aranya (The Middle Man, 1975). All the three films study the effect the big city of Calcutta has on the educated youth and the price it extracts from them.
The seventies were a difficult period for India and West Bengal. The Corruption was rampant; the Naxalite movement had created havoc in Calcutta. In fact, they had turned parts of Calcutta into 'liberated zones'. By the time the Naxalite movement died down, in 1975, Mrs. Indira Gandhi (then, Prime Minister of India) suppressed the fundamental rights and declared "Emergency" for her own political survival. Her son, Sanjay Gandhi became a dictator of sorts without any official designation. The opposition leaders were thrown into prisons.
About his social responsibilities as a filmmaker, in an interview with Cineaste magazine, Ray commented, "You can see my attitude in The Adversary where you have two brothers. The younger brother is a Naxalite. There is no doubt that the elder brother admires the younger brother for his bravery and convictions. The film is not ambiguous about that. As a filmmaker, however, I was more interested in the elder brother because he is the vacillating character. As a psychological entity, as a human being with doubts, he is a more interesting character to me. The younger brother has already identified himself with a cause. That makes him part of a total attitude and makes him unimportant. The Naxalite movement takes over. He, as a person, becomes insignificant."
In a letter to Seton in 1970, Ray wrote that Pratidwandi was the most provocative film he had made till then. The film is said to have evoked extreme reactions. "People either loved the film or hated it", Dhritiman Chatterjee told Andrew Robinson, Ray's biographer.
还行，金满堂最后说了句“尼玛的，又捅这里”有点搞笑
太聒噪了，也很无聊，甚至不如第一部，怪不得韩国那边损益点都没过
略显粗糙，但是可以看出认真的态度，动作戏有惊喜之处
感觉是挺乐呵的动画片。吴世勋是噱头吧。台词都没几句。
10分阵容 5毛特效 3流演技
太长太长太长了啊啊啊 幸好没有在电影院看 不然我真的坐不住 好平好无聊
姜sky是适合憨厚淳朴的形象不是要你装疯卖傻，孝珠姐姐这部的演技怎么这么捉急，光洙继续RM大电影，秀彬妹子的角色简直就是毫无必要，妈呀整个片子到底怎么立项拍摄剪辑出品的，故事人物特效都难看也是绝了。
比爆米花电影还劣一点。制作中规中矩，剧本说不出什么好来。无厘头又不够，全在突出韩式古装的无素质嗓门。可能在韩国本土会分高一点吧。
扯淡的剧情，韩式的装逼，二流的表演，五毛的特效。李光洙是唯一吸引人看下去的内容。
海盗个个大白牙十分出戏，只有服装勉强算点意思，肤色也是糊弄下就过去了，看来朝鲜海盗生活十分滋润
太儿戏比前作差太远狗尾续貂--光洙真是扛大梁了哈哈，权相宇反派帅的不行
十步杀一人，千里不留行，无奈生活苦，更有儿女情，拔剑心茫然，快意恩仇难。
看完有两个疑问：一是韩孝周怎么这么好看，二是她怎么会在这么个电影里面。
比第一部差，搞笑部分实在是刻意又无聊！剧情嘛简单又老套，基本上相当于复制了第一部！
刀刀溅血，杀人不废话，布景用心有质感，动作利落无慢镜，光凭这几点就完胜热搜上的一堆古装剧。PS：回马枪真是YYDS！
先学好怎么拍电影，在来尝试改变已经成体系的武侠动作风格吧。
笑点商业性都有，合格了起码，女主是真的很飒！
更像一集综艺，总体故事性不强，还有点强行搞笑
竟然不是一味的吵吵闹闹，还增加了历史元素，李成桂灭了高丽，建立朝鲜，寻宝寻到企鹅群，笑死。韩孝周很有那个味儿，李光洙带动搞笑，姜河那一般，不如权相宇。不得不说，特效不错。
第一部还是热热闹闹挺好看挺有趣的，如法炮制出第二部，所有的复制粘贴出来的东西都激不起任何感觉了。
