If it were only a fraction of its length, "Action Jackson" would be of the sort of perfectly-bad movies ideal for riotously ripping into with a group of snarky-sarcastic friends. However, its 3 hour run time turns it into a psychologically torturous endurance test as it drags its dead carcass through enough plot clichés and randomly thrown-in twists for four films.

Viewers lured in with the promise of a meet-cute Bollywood rom-com, will be confused and horrified when the body count reaches in the high hundreds. "Action Jackson" is actually a bizarre amalgamation of two Bollywood rom-coms, a stereotypical assassin- turned-good-guy out for revenge flick, and the Parent Trap. But with 007 Bond villains (I will admit, I enjoyed the super-campy villains). However, instead of a cohesive blending of these elements, it feels as if the random limbs from at least four different films were amateurishly hacked-off and thrown into a pile to rot together and produce this...thing.

Watch an old guy with obviously CGIed abs (they move up and down on their own!) play not one, but two, action heroes badly, as he poses like a teen model every chance he gets and speaks only in garbled, bizarre, one-liners ("It's my way, or the Skyway." "Me, criminally bad." are some of the gems) and flirts with two much younger, extremely similar women the plot keeps forgetting about.

The dancing is bad and makes no sense with the plot half the time, the lines are dubbed as poorly as an old kung-foo film and sometimes not translated at all, and most parts are so laughably wretched that you will openly mock the movie in order to stay sane.

I nearly cried when I discovered there was still over an hour left.

People walked out of the theater.

"Action Jackson" could have been "the Room" of the Indian film industry, but is so long and crappy, it really isn't worth bothering with.

As I begin writing my views on Parbhudeva's Action Jackson, the thought that do come to mind is that how silly and crap a movie can be made with massive budget , high cost production and popular star cast ? There are movies like Queen and Gangs Of Wasseypur with high quality content and shoe string budget and yet managed to impress the audience. Why do spend money on useless script and horrible stories and yet actors like Ajay Devgan are working with him ?

Action Jackson is a masala entertainment telling the story of 2 look-alike. Life changes when they cross each other's part.

From the critical acclaimed Wanted and entertainers like Rowdy Rathore and R..Rajkumar to disaster movie like Ramaiya Vastavaiya in which the definition of Story, Script and direction does not fit it. In Action Jackson, you will wonder how amateurish can Prabhudeva get. Imagine a scene where Sonakshi Sinha wants her luck to change only if she can see Ajay Devagan's g-part again. Editing is horrible. The torture goes on for almost 3 hours. Art direction is good. Cinematography is nice. Songs are pathetic. Ajay Devgan disappoints and disappoints big time. An actor of his calibre should be doing better films.

Overall, a pathetic film in every sense. Poor- 1/5

No Spoilers.

There are many things that fly in this movie, including Sonakshi.

The movie has pathetic script... unnecessary dialogs. What i could not understand is that "there was nothing to understand" in this movie. Ajay can not dance but is made to dance. The first half is OK but beware of second half. Action sequences defy Physics.

Only saving grace is Yamy Gautam and Kunal Roy Kapur. They both have justified their roles. Yami looks fresh and energetic. Movie songs and background score is pathetic and not appealing. Composed with a feeling of loose character.

Please stay away... watch only on TV release, where u can fast-forward it and waste less time! :)

Cheers!

Half way through Action Jackson..the following questions popped up in my mind

1) What on earth is Prabhudeva smoking ? To be frank, Devgn is a double role on paper is a good idea but everything is lost after that.

2) Why does Prabhudeva want to torture us with such films? Last yr..it was R Rajkumar and now Action Jackson?

3) Why does Sonakshi Sinha and Yami Gautam act is such non sense films? Frankly both are decent actress but Action Jackson is a blot on their careers.

4) What is Kunal Roy Kapoor doing in this film ?

5) And, finally...why Ajay ? Why r u acting in such crap films ? You once did some fabulous films. But now Rascals, Son of Sardaar, Himmatwala and now Action Jackson are just undoing the gr8 work u did till date.

This movie may not be injurious to your health but definitely to your mind !! Stay away.

I have been a fan of Masala films like Dabanng and Main Hoon Na but this one failed to lie in that genre. The execution and story of the movie were both atrocious to say the least. Very choppy editing that I have ever seen in my life. The action scenes are one of the biggest letdowns in the movie. The music is so ridiculous that made me thinking what HR had in his mind when being offered as a composer for Action Jackson. Ajay Devgan's performance is like Tiger Shroff and Fardeen Khan combined only in this movie although he previously did well in his other movies. I still remembered that cheesy line when Sonakshi said to Ajay that you dance better than Prabhu Deva. After hearing Punjabi Mast, yeah he sure does!!! Manasvi Mamgai was attractive in the movie but she had bad taste in acting her role. Prabhu Deva should leave the film directing sector and just stick to making peoples bodies move because that is the only thing he is good at. Lights, Camera, and Action and Prabhu Deva, there is a huge difference on how he does it.

This film overall was an atrocity and a disgrace to North Indian Cinema and the world.

I said disappointing for a reason and that is, when you see a film starred by Ajay Devgan, Directed By Prabhu Deva, You naturally start to think that the film should be 'Interesting, A Must Watch' Should Be Good' that kind of thoughts easily comes to our mind because we expect something different something spectacular to be delivered, But if we can't get that then disappointment comes naturally and that is obvious.

I'm not saying that the film was Bakwaas, Total Crap, Utterly Disgusting like the other reviewers here. But I'm sorry to say that it was truly not enough to be memorable one. Let me come to the details first..

There are several Pros and Cons, I'll try to enlist as much as possible...So?

Let's come to the points quickly...

Cons....

1. Music was Average {Could've been better}.

2. First half was something fresh but looks dull with silly dialogs and witty expressions.

3. I personally think Kunaal Roy Kapur's character was unnecessary and was totally wasted.

4. Sonakshi Sinha was good in her part of role but seems to be repetitive.

5. The Main Antagonist does not look like a villain at all. He misses the charm of Bad Character. {Prakash Raj Would've been a better choice}.

6. Editing was fuzzy.

7. The film has 2 Hour and 26 Mins of Run Time and that is something that feels dragged a little bit.

Now the {+} points...

Pros....

1. New type of actions were great to watch. Action Sequences were executed properly.

2. Ajay Devgan truly justified his role, I doubt if any other actor can carry the role to that level.

3. Yami Gautam acted very well in her small but effective role.

4. Even the leading bad lady, I mean Manasvi {She's damn hot really :D} did her job well.

5. I did not like the first half, actually it was slow and dull but the second half was good and catches up the pace it needs.

After all if you are either a Ajay Devgan or Prabhu Deva Fan then You should watch it, you will enjoy the film, but don't keep so much expectations as I did :{ you will be disappointed as much as I am now!!!

One of the best action movie in Bollywood, with good comedy scenes.

Ajay Devgn play both roles perfectly, Yami Gautam and dimaksud give a good performance, the villains are very good in their performance, good choice by Prabhu Dheva.

All the songs in this movie are very good.

If you want entertainment, this movie is the good choice.

But if you want a make sense movies, go watching news or biography movies.

Most movies are made for fun and entertainment, If you fans of action movies, this is a good choice.

Even if you fans of comedy movies, this movie is good.

Everybody has a different taste, even in selected movies and the artists.

I have watching this movie more than 10 times, in cinema and DVD, So don't focus in others opinion, go watch yourself and prove it, believe me you will be enjoyed the movie.

Action Jackson is a disappointing film.Prabhudeva had put all his mas-ala ingredients to make an entertaining film but failed miserably.The script of the movie is very weak.The film is full of silly dialogues and action scenes.Today bollywood is losing its charm due to silly films.Generally every film has a story lifted from other movies.If they want to put bollywood on world map then they have to make original movies instead of mindless action flicks.Prabhudeva has always made mindless movies and this one is no exception.The story is bad but the screenplay is not as bad as the story.First half of the movie is very bad but second half was better which saved the movie from drowning.Action scenes were too over the top,unconvincing and violent.Comedy was little better than action.The twist in the end is the worst and totally unconvincing.Ajay looked good in action but was weak in other scenes.I don't understand why he wastes his time in such bad movies.Sonakshi was very bad.She has become typed with same kind of roles.She didn't had enough to do except dancing,romancing,speaking dialogues with wooden expression and making 1000 types of bad faces.Manasvi was excellent.She looked hot as well as lethal.Anand raj was below average.Yami gautam was gorgeous.She looked radiant in every frame.Music was horrible.Direction of the movie was also very weak.Overall a movie which is inspired from various movies like Rowdy rathore and Kill bill.If you are die hard AJ's fan then you may go for it otherwise wait for the DVD.This movie again proved that prabhudeva is a great dancer but should quit direction.A bad experience....... RATING : 5.6 out of 10

Director Mr.Prabhu Deva work is good. Story has lots of things, which go overboard. Dialogues by Shiraz Ahmed, are OK. Screenplay by Prabhudeva, Shiraz Ahemed and A.C Mughil, offers something new. First half entertains only due to innovative approach of most of the scenes. The main track of luck factor is logical and comical both. Even they try to convey few messages through it. Messages are subtle but good. In the scene, when a kid got refused admission from school on the basis of illiterate father, then the way hero convinces the Principal is appealing. Fighting style with music beats is also new and entertaining. Interval point indicates that now movie is ready to land in the illogical and unnecessary violence area. The main conflict in second half is unreliable. A person never became ready to take risk of his life only for humanity ground and even with his friend. Yeah, we got some comical relief in second half due to this duo but there was no logic at all and it downgraded the villain character too. Climax fight is just like cake walk rather than some brain game in action sequences or in screenplay. Performance wise Ajay Devgan will surprise you with his unique and entertaining style of dancing. He is candidly endearing. Sonakshi Sinha looks beautiful and fits completely in her bubbly character. Yami Gautem looks pretty and acts good. Kunal Roy Kapoor is very good. Manasvi Mamgai as Marina, wears perfect attitude and expression. Music by Himesh Reshmmiya is good and choreography makes it very good.

Nothing made sense especially the bad guys motive WTF

Disaster movie ever made in history, talented actors like Ajay needs to be well used should not be misused, prabhu deva is amateur director no idea on how to direct the movie came into bollywood try his luck by wasting peoples time and money.

VFX ad all that effects are very cheap, all that clearly tells this movie tergeted audiences are kids, age recommendation 6-12

The weekend when this movie got released, we all cousins and met together after a long long time(re-union) & had planned to watch a film together. Since no other Bollywood film had released during Action Jackson release, we had no choice but to watch this film. An entire row was booked.

The movie started & i had little bit of hope that, something logical & something which makes sense will be there in this film. But my poor, none of the things made sense to me! Such a pathetic film! Oh man, i wanted to get out of theatre just after first 15mins into film. The second half was total torture. What happened to Ajay Devgan? He is such a fine actor.

By watching Action Jackson, it made me realize that R Rajkumar is somewhat "watchable" film compared to this and trust me R Rajkumar is also pathetic film.

Only those few comic relief by that hero's friend made me smile a bit. Other than that, its just pathetic & absolute mindless,senseless film. I would have given 0 star, but IMDb doesn't provide it.

Once i came out of theatre, i said in my mind, "OH GOD, Why did you punish me like this?". I regret to this day, that i spent my precious time of 150mins watching this bakwas movie!

Action Jackson is a 2014 Indian action masala film directed by Prabhu Deva and produced by Gordhan Tanwani and Sunil Lulla.. It features Ajay Devgn in a double role, alongside Sonakshi Sinha, Yami Gautam and Manasvi Mamgai as the female leads.

Action Jackson is an amazing movie. All the songs are wonderful, lovely and good dance. The action that Ajay Devgan did was just outstanding. This movie does have a bit of comedy. Sonakshi's didn't play a good role. The villain's look was, the way he was shown in the movie and the way he talked was nice.

The movie was thriller and a lot of action.

So overall this movie was just amazing and i think people go and should watch this movie.

Action Jackson is an action thriller film directed by Prabhu Deva. The film stars Ajay Devgn, Sonakshi Sinha, Yami Gautam, Manasvi Mamgain, Kunaal Roy Kapur and Anandaraj.

A small-time goon falls in love with a clumsy girl. Before the two lovers can embark on a romantic journey, he comes face-to-face with his lookalike.

Prabhu Deva made a block buster film Rowdy Rathore and it seems that he is not coming out of the hangover of that film as the plot and execution of this film is very similar of that film but this film is less entertaining, more irritating and jokes are just flat. There are some positives with the film such as beautiful cinematography, choreographed action scenes and acting of Ajay Devgn but all this is overshadowed by a weak storyline, pathetic direction, loud BGM, terrible execution and above all Sonakshi Sinha who just irritates whenever she is on screen.

The plot of the film is similar to Rowdy Rathore and execution is almost similar but as mentioned earlier this film is less funny, less entertaining and more irritating.

Screenplay of the film is average. Acting is superb by Ajay Devgn and apart from Ajay Devgn, Yami Gautam was to much extent impressive, Kunal Roy Kapur was average, Manasvi tries hard but fails to impress, Anandaraj was badly underused and Sonakshi Sinha irritates to the core. It's high time that she should understand that acting is not her cup of tea and try her hands in anything apart from acting.

The climax of the film is very violent and brutal, typical action lovers and hardcore fans of Ajay devgn will like this film for others a terrible film to watch.

This movie should be listed among the worst movies ever produced by the Indian Cinema. I don't hate Prabhudeva as many others do. His 'Wanted' was good. But 'Rowdy Rathore' was really impressive. And I actually liked R...Rajkumar as well to some extent. That was why I picked up this movie as well, ignoring all the negative reviews I had seen. Well... It was a really bad decision, as this movie had nothing to deliver except some headache.

No idea what Prabhudeva was trying to do here. But if he is getting this low he should stop directing movies at all. And honestly, I'm disappointed by Ajay Devgan as well. Not only that he signed such a pathetic script, he also failed to deliver a good acting here for the roles he was provided.
