ROWDY RATHORE (Movie Review)

ONE LINER:

Khiladi Rathore In Action!!

EXPECTATIONS:

Expectations were high initially as Akshay returning to action after a long time, produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Prabhudeva directing His next venture after Wanted..

VIEWS:

Well this has again been a wrong promo policy. When the theatrical came and then songs promo came and then other promos came the film seemed to be over the top and cheap and below standard in my views. But after watching the movie I'll say that its not the case.. AK film KHATTA MEETHA suffered due to bad promo policiy too as it showed it as comedy but it was a nice serious movie. First 30 minutes of the movie are totally below average.. as the comic scenes at that moment does not create any impact nor the love angle is well shown.. but after 30 minutes the Movie goes on a high and high from when the girl came and emotional and serious RR starts.. then it creates a pure masala entertainer movie impact till end.

STORY & SCRIPT:

Story is old but the script is quite good.. Love Angle should have been scripted well.

DIRECTION:

Prabhudeva starts bad but after 30 minutes get the grip and never loose it till the end.. Only the Love scenes could have been directed well than he did..

MUSIC:

Music by SAJID WAJID is totally disappointingly average. TERA ISHQ and CHAMMAK CHALLO are the better tracks. In my view CHINTA CHINTA is totally poor song and its repeatedly use seems useless. Dhadang Dhadang and Aa Re Pritam just OK. Music could have been much better than this so as same for the background music.. it should have been better.

CASTING & ACTING:

AKSHAY KUMAR came back to his favourite genre Action and he has acted very very well in RR .. He is the most Positive thing of RR. He played role of Vikram Rathore with high and role of Shiva great to with his bravo comic timings.. He Makes RR watchable..

SONAKSHI SINHA has acted quite good. But her role is not well developed.

The character played by the girl of the daughter of VIKRAM RATHORE has acted very well .. She is superb.

YASHPAL SHARMA & GURDEEP KOHLI are good..

NASSAR as the antagonist is quite good.. really acted very well. the actor played his brother is ordinary and so his son character.

MUSHTAQ KHAN has good comic moments and dialogues. Other actors are OK.

PARESH as AK friend is just OK.

PLUSSES & MINUSES:

PLUSSES:

1. AKSHAY KUMAR's acting.

2. The emotional scenes.

3. The role of the girl.

4. Strong intermission. And strong post and pre intermission scenes.

MINUSSES:

1. First 30 minutes.

2. Music.

3. Background Music.

CONCLUSION:

Bare first 30 minutes and enjoy the remaining film as a great MASALA ENTERTAINER. AKSHAY KUMAR back in form..Wana Go for a Nice Dhisoom Dhisoom Entertaining Movie go for ROWDY RATHORE..

RATINGS: 3.75/5.

Fmovies: Rowdy Rathore is a 'Dkhamakedar' masala movie.....

Akshay Kumar...... 'OUTSTANDING' he proves that he's the master of action.... With his dialogues he shatters the theater, Awesome. He has brilliantly played the role of Vikramsingh Rathore...

Sonakshi is good but doesn't have much to do.

Paresh Ganatra and the rest are good.

The movie starts slow but the Interval point is earth shattering...!!!!

Because of the slow start I'll rate it 7/10 or else I would've rated it 8/10.... This movie belongs only to Akshay Kumar, (Vikramsingh Rathore and Shiva....)

ramjith2011 1 June 2012

Rowdy Rathore - the immensely hyped return of Akshay Kumar as Action BAAP - delivers what it promised - a Mass Action fiesta with a heavy dose of South Indian which now loved in Noth as well Masalas.

The story is about Shiva (Akshay Kumar), a small 'Rowdy' who charms & steals not only wealth but also every ladies heart in a blink. Shiva falls in love with Priya (Sonakshi Sinha), a pretty and smart girl from Patna. Into this enters six year old Neha who believes Shiva to be her father -Vikram Rathore . The further movie deals with what changes and responsibilities does this little girl brings to his life and how he becomes the only hope for people of a small town in Bihar to get rid of a ruthless MLA Nasser and his mafia goons.

Those who have seen the original either Vikramarkudu or Siruthai may find this one less appealing provided you are not an Akshay Fan. But for the majority of its core target audience this will be a perfect entertainment treat post IPL season that everyone was looking for.Its the perfect blend of comedy,over the top action, songs, dance, dialogues etc., everything that we were expecting from such a movie

DICK STEEL 2 June 2012

Rowdy Rathore fmovies. Akshay Kumar plays two characters here, each with his own half each side of the interval to accommodate the stories of ACP Vikram Rathore the fearless cop, and of Shiva the cunning thief, whom we get introduced having as glib a tongue as he has silky smooth hands every ready to pinch any valuable from anyone. We get up close to Shiva first, and his unlikely romance with Paro (Sonakshi Sinha, whose breakthrough performance was Dabangg). Vowing to give up his thieving ways to gain the acceptance of Neeraja, his henchman 2G (Paresh Ganatra) and he commits one last heist, only to find a six year old girl Chinki in the trunk of supposed valuables they stole, and compelled to have to adopt her in the meantime when she is adamant that Shiva is her dad. All these confusion will get straightened out by the time the interval rolls by, but until then, the narrative is relatively choppy, flitting between Shiva's pursuit of Paro, and his disdain for Chinki.

But it's after the interval where things got a little bit more interesting with the story of Vikram Rathore coming into the picture, and making Rowdy Rathore pretty much worthwhile. Fans of many South Indian cop films will find this Hindi remake of Vikramarkudu in familiar territory, and films of the same genre will probably tote the same narrative structure as well, with honest cop blessed with super human strength (as part of the fun) going up against corrupt officials and thugs who rule villages with iron fists. In some ways it's almost serving a cathartic function of sorts, when films offer escapism to those who feel oppressed, and find an outlet to cheer for the unlikely coming of a hero, if only on screen. With anyone challenging oppressive authority, schemes will soon be in place to remove the thorn in any corrupt side, but I must say witnessing Vikram Rathore tear through evil like hot knife through butter, was really something that anyone can cheer to after a hard day's work, especially if one has one's fair share of injustice experienced during the day.

It was publicized that Akshay Kumar hasn't played an all out action role since, well 7 years ago, but I thought Tashan wasn't that far behind although he had to share the limelight with his co-stars. Here he owned both characters he played, with the only distinguishing factor between Shiva and Vikram being the subtleness in the design of the mustache he wore for each character. Action sequences are naturally over the top in any Masala film, and this one has its fair share of incredible stunts topped with countless of explosions. There's something a little bit disturbing though in the action choreography, in its effort to follow Hollywood yet again, that slow-motion techniques favored by the likes of Zack Snyder, found its way to this Bollywood film, and in a pivotal sequence, looked very much inspired by Stephen Chow's Kungfu Hustle, even after so long.

But the best parts of Rowdy Rathore isn't the action, but the characterization and the Indian- English dialogues they're made to express. In Vikram Rathore he stands by his fearlessness of death, and threats to anyone daring to put his daughter in harm's way, with that twirl of his handle-bar mustache and smile, capped with his mantra that he does whatever he says. Shiva on the other hand, although of less brawn but equally, if not more cunning, continues Vikram's good work as Rowdy Rathore, only to add a new flavour to Vikram's threat that he now also does what he doesn't say, sending his enemies int

Shiva (Akshay Kumar) is a small-time con man who falls in love with Priya (Sonakshi Sinha). Into this picture perfect world enters six-year- old Neha, who inexplicably believes Shiva to be her dad. And if this wasn't bad enough, Shiva also becomes the object of a series of life threatening attacks by a gang of deadly criminals who seem to know something he doesn't. While trying desperately to save his life and love, Shiva stumbles upon a deadly secret. A secret that will take him to a small town in Bihar; a town terrorized by a ruthless person (Nassar).

Prabhudeva does a fine job here and possibly better than WANTED in the field of creativity. WANTED was a dark and grimy present time action movie. But Rowdy Rathore has vivid colorful executions, the perfect 90's feel in every sense and ruthless action sequences as well as the dramatic parts.

Cinematography by Santosh Thundiyil leaves a mark. Costumes are not a vital part but Niharika Khan & Prarthana Chadha's sleek costume designing comes to notice through many pretty outfits of Sonakshi Sinha. Even though Akshay Kumar's clothes don't leave a mark, but who can forget the 'Rangeela Coat's of Colorful Pants wore by Akshay Kumar in 'Chinta Ta'. Shiraz Ahmed does a noble work by doing some alteration in the main story. Sanjay Sankla's editing is top notch. Choreography is a damn good advantage of the movie as Bosco Martis, Saroj Khan and none other than Prabhudeva have left their mark here. That's why the songs are a delight to watch. Background scores by Sandeep Chowta impress.

Dialogues by Shiraz Ahmed is perfect. After SINGHAM, such daring one- liners took place again in Bollywood. "Ilaaka Tera Dhamaka Mera", "Apun ka Phatka 440 ka Jhatka" and so on.

Sajid-Wajid's music yet again leaves great mark after Housefull 2. The perfect combination of South and west can be easily witnessed in their music. Tracks like "Chinta Ta Chita Chita", "Dhadang Dhang", "Chammak Challo" and "Aa Re Pritam Pyaare" work wonders for the movie and saves the energetic feel in the movie.

And one another extraordinary element of the movie is action directed by Anal Arasu. The films has three main action sequences. In the interval by Vikram Rathore, In the flashback portion by Vikram Rathore and in the climax by Shiva. The action scenes are sure to leave mark on your brains and hearts. The moves and techniques are awesome and makes incredible similarity with Southern hard-hitting action movies.

Get ready to see Akshay Kumar in his top form. Besides his excellent comic timing, his ability as a prime-time entertainer resurrects through Rowdy Rathore. Akshay plays a double role in the movie. Shiva, a thief and Vikram Rathore, a tough no-nonsense cop. While Shiva is a entertaining role, Vikram is a serious, violent and angry cop which reminds me of Akshay Kumar in "Main Khiladi Tu Anadi", "Sangharsh" etc. The monumental act by Akshay Kumar takes the movie to new heights.

Sonakshi plays a hot and sweet chick, different from her role in Dabangg. But this time also she handles her role very skillfully and her Indian traditional image yet again suits her.

Paresh Ganatra as Shiva's buddy is funny and witty. Nassar as the antagonist manages to handle his part very strategically. The actor who plays Nassar's brother does well even his role is very succinct. Others like Mushtaq Khan, Yashpal Sharma, Gurdeep &
