My View on ‘Rowdy Rathore’
RATING – 3.5/5
-Nice Timepass Fun if u go
with a Gang of Friends
-SUPERB ACTION(A Perfect
Mixture of OTT & Slick
Action…Wayy Better than
then the Recent Southern
Entertainers…Akshay is
Action Khiladi)
-Nice Dramatic Scenes filled
with Tension…Scene after
‘Pritam Pyaare’ Song is the
Best of the Movie
-Loads of Sonakshi “Belly”
Show…She has No Talent
whatsoever, is Overhyped
and Cashing on other’s Success(Same like Kareena).
-Akshay was Great as Shiva
but Average as Rathore…Not the BEST Performance Acting Wise…Decent Enuf.
He was Better in Patiala
House…But he Rocks the Songs & Action.
-Everyone in The Supporting Cast was Bad,OTT & Hamming!
-Prahudeva is a Good Copy/
Paste Director…RR was more “Southernised” then Wanted but Not a Better Product…But, does his Job Well
-1st Half was Funny &
Entertaining….2nd Half I liked in Portions but the Climax Sucked to the Core.
-Songs were Good but a
Hindrance to the Narrative…
Pritam Pyaare was the Pick of the Lot…Looked Great on the Big Screen.
Overall, 2hrs well spent..
Popcorn Entertainer, Desi
Masala Ishtyle…!!!
A Good ‘One Time’ Watch…
Better than Housefull-2.
And btw, My FIRST POST ON TANQEED!!!
😀 😀 😀 😀
Thnx Sputnik fr Adjusting the Title.
🙂
You are welcome and hope to see more posts/reviews from you.
The WOM in my Show was
‘Excellent’ and it was 100%
Housefull Show at Mumbai
Multiplex mostly Engg
Students.
Masala Action is here to stay
but soon the Bubble will Burst aftr a Saturation Point.
My Predictions on RR were @130-135cr Pre Release
We had planned to watch
‘Shanghai’ but our Tiredness & Reaction to the Movie frm the Audience stopped us.
Where does RR stand IMO
compared to Similar Movies
Post2008 :-
I] Movie Content Wise Wanted – 4/5
Agneepath – 4/5
Ghajini – 4/5
Singham – 3.5/5
*Rowdy Rathore – 3.5/5*
Dabangg – 3/5
Force – 2.5/5
Bodyguard – 2.5/5
II] Lead Actor Acting Wise
Salman Khan (Wanted)
Ajay Devgn (Singham)
Salman Khan (Dabangg)
Hrithik Roshan(Agneepath)
Aamir Khan (Ghajini)
Akshay’s Shiva/Rathore Not
in My Top5.
It will be Interesting to see
what Aamir(Talaash),SRK(LI),Akshay(Joker),Ranbir
(Barfee),Shahid(TMK),Imran(MKBKM) do with their Acting in these Movies and hw do they Drive the Films at the BO in the Wake of South Masala ruling the Roost.
looks like u were very generous in ur rating for RR ,serenzy.u hated the climax?
Yes, I hated the Goofiness of the Climax…It shud have been done in a Serious Way wid Akshay killing d Villians with his Bare Hands( a la Salman).
Now what worked for me BIG TIME fr dat 3.5/5 was
The Unabashed Highly Entertaining Songs
The Drama created btwn Rathore/Shiva & Naseer(Villian) and his Cronies
The Silly Gags in the 1st Half vich were soo Idiotic dat it made me Laugh(which I highly wanted post some Mindfucking Semester Exams).
The Quality of Action…Not Completely ‘Rohit Shetty’ nor Totally Slick Stuff either(Don2 like)…A Mix f both!
The Little Girl was Cute!
So, I may be generous in my rating but it stemmed frm d fact dat RR managed to Entertain me and was a Timepass Action Flick to my Liking.
Though I wudn’t recmmend a 2nd Time Watch to anyone.
yes serenzy,akshay did the goofiness bit in CCTC too which ruined the film even more.Even in those training scenes where should have been serious,he was doing boofonery stuff.This is my biggest issue with akshay films.yes you an do that in films like hf2 but why in CCTC or RR?I think KKK is the only film where akshay did all the action seriously and without a doubt its his best action film to date.
No wonder they added the Goofiness bit in the CLIMAX to ‘appease’ the Masses vich is okay in Ready,G3 but looks out f place in RR,Singham.
that’s why Wanted,AP,Ghajini r Better Films.
CC2C wud have been such a Breakout Movie if Handled Diffrntly(aka RA.One like Moment).
KKK as Doga Sir once said remains a ‘Benchmark’ in Bollywood Action Movies…Perfect Entertainer!
Just saw ‘Agneepath'(Rewatch) on Zee
Cinema.
Total Awesomeness…
HR & Rishi were the Star
Performers…Dutt Menacing and Good!
Great Songs right frm Shah ka Rutba, Deva Shree Ganesha and PC in Gun Guna, Kat in Chikni Chameli gives u No Reason to
Complain.
And,I SuperLove some f the
Most Brilliantly Written Scenes of the Movie and how they have kept the Essence f the Old One(BigB Versn) giving this one a New Vibe.
And the Supprting Cast acts
well enuf too…
Raw Action Scenes!
4/5(The 2nd Best Movie of the Year of what I have seen until now).
HR as VDC & Rishi as Rauf Lala is Epicness…Hats off to Karan Malhotra.

My only problm wid the Movie is Unnecessary Romantic Track wid PC, Om Puri Track and Loooong Finale.
I wud Rate Bachchan’s AP as
5/5…
IMO, He ruled/owned/
dominated dat Movie to d
Core.
But, It was more f a Indian
‘Scarface’.
AP(old) is one of ma most fav movie.amitabhs performance was one of d best in this genre imo. I wont say dat AP will gross so and so if it vil releasne now since i dnt believe in ol dis.
