Romeo S3 (2025) : Movie Review -

Romeo S3 is intriguing, but only because it feels like a time capsule from the 90s. Dhanoa seems to have missed the mark entirely when it comes to today's audience, delivering a B-grade action flick that caters to a crowd no longer present in theatres. The protagonist has the physique of a fitness model but less of a cinematic hero's aura-and he acts just as wooden. No wonder the tagline: Singham on Steroids!

The plot revolves around cop Sangram Singh Shekhawat (Thakur Anup Singh), who infiltrates a drug syndicate in Goa. In his pursuit of justice, he uncovers a parallel menace in the medical industry-one that could spark a pandemic and tarnish India's global image. But our muscular hero finds himself stuck more often than not, although he refuses to back down. The villain's son is a tough nut to crack, and defeating him is not enough to contain the looming threat. So what's next?

Oddly, the screenplay feels relatively tolerable when compared to the garbage heap of a story it's built on. Unfortunately, the film's presentation is worse, evoking B-grade vibes from a bygone era. One wonders how this mess even made it past the editing desk. Frankly, that hard drive should have been fried at intermission. The editor did his bit but forgot it could give viewers a migraine. The script is confused, ignoring even 90s conventions. Tanu, for example, clings to Sangram post-betrayal, expecting him to stay in Goa and share a heartbreak song-nonsense! Sangram could've just ended Junior Makhija, yet chose not to-letting the virus spread and risk a national crisis. How this script isn't displayed in a "hall of fame" for worst writing is beyond me. Reserve this one for the Worst Story and Screenplay of 2025.

In this landfill of cinematic junk, Thakur Anup Singh is still somewhat watchable. His physique, fight sequences, screen presence-all mass-friendly, but the "acting" is MIA. Palak Tiwari shows more talent in her reels than in the film, though I truly hope she gives acting a real shot-there's promise there. Shivani Jadhav is the textbook "pretty face," and that seems to be her sole casting merit. Veterans like Sachin Khedekar, Zakir Hussain, Rajesh Khattar, Anant Jog, Aman Dhaliwal, and Smita Jaykar seem to just drift through, merely filling screen time.

The film's music is insipid and feels like it was made to encourage viewers to hit fast-forward. Cinematography is poor, and the editing-shockingly-even worse. Credit to the editor for his endurance: watching this wreck multiple times must've been a form of torture. I barely sat through it once. The production design screams low-budget, and everything reeks of outdated style. Dhanoa would do well to consider retirement before his legacy takes further damage. Romeo S3 is best avoided-don't even stream it out of curiosity on TV or mobile.

RATING - 3/10*
