Netizens left disappointed: 

Though Saif Ali Khan’s only National Award win came for a romantic-comedy role in Hum Tum, fact is that he receives applause mostly for his dark roles, be it Omkara or Ek Hasina Thi is well-kwn. While se roles were t out-and-out menacing right from first frame to last, he seems to be overtly evil in his latest film Laal Kaptaan, which hit aters on Friday. One would naturally expect him to shine once again, and as far as opinions of Twitter users are concerned, he stood true to expectations. However, that was t case with movie, as it was termed unimpressive for most who caught shows.
