R... Rajkumar

R...Rajkumar is definitely one of the worst films of 2013. Everything about this film is wrong. The story is unappealing and the comedy is grossly overdone.

You have a thug who constantly stalks the heroine and then challenges the villain that he'll be the one to remove the girl's sari and then take her to a honeymoon. Disgusting! I wonder if Prabhudeva was drunk when he made this film. Furthermore, the hero (or whatever) here acts more like a hoodlum. I know that he's made to play a hooligan but he totally lacks the virtue to win the girl.

R...Rajkumar sticks out as crass, vulgar and sick. The song "Gaandi Baat" aptly describes the sick mentality of the hero.

Shahid Kapur is an average actor and he is totally wasted in a cheap film like this. Sonakshi Sinha should START getting out of her 'desi girl' avatar. She is very bad in this movie and is getting type-casted in the 'village belle' type roles.

Overall, nothing works for R...Rajkumar. It seems Prabhudeva was out of his mind when he was making this film. I would've loved to see his magic recreated after Rowdy Rathod. But I was seriously disappointed.

I give it 3/10.

R…Rajkumar is an intense, funny and action packed romantic bollywood masala movie. The theatrical experience was good, this motion picture will hold you until the climax. Neither it meets perfection nor it will disappoint you. A must watch for anyone looking for entertainment. For those who look for a message or moral at the end of the story.. I am sorry to say, you can remove it from your WatchList. Not a great movie for film critics either. Music/Dance and screenplay was interesting, got to see something new finally. Action sequences are deeply inspired from south Indian cinema. Shahid has done justice to his role and as expected Sonu Sood did a pretty well job.

There is a overdose of masala films in 2013 - Police giri, Chennai Express , Boss, Bullet Raja , Singh Saab The Great and now R..Rajkumar. Good news is that R..Rajkumar is better than above movie ... bad news is that it is yet another typical action-melodrama with nothing new to offer.

R..Rajkumar (played by Shahid Kapoor) is a fearless and daring thug who lands up in the lawless village and joins a drug-dealer's gang, Shivraj( played by Sonu Sood). Enters Chanda and our hero is head-over- heels in love with her. Things becomes ugly when Shivraj also starts liking and war is declared between the two to marry Chanda.

After giving of string of masala films like Wanted , Rowdy Rathore and Ramaiya Vastavaiya , Prabhudeva is back with yet another popcorn entertainment with strong first half but diluted second half. The film begins with a bang by incorporating scenes like Shahid Kapoor saving Sonu Sood's life , the dance number in the song "Gandi Baat", the chemistry and comic humor between Shahid and Sonakshi. However, the film goes down the rabbit hole and is completely lost in the dark in the later part. Screenplay is weak. Cinematography is amazing. Art direction is good. Background score is better. Songs like "Gandi Baat and Saree ke fall se" are catchy. Shahid steals the thunder from the show. He is superb in acting , dancing and even doing action scenes. This film should prove his mettle. Sonakshi Sinha repeats herself. Sonu Sood is good.

Overall, R..Rajkumar promises to deliver but is letdown by wafer-thin 2nd half. Watch it for Shahid. Average 2.5/5

This is my first review, so excuse me for any mistakes. This movie starring Shahid Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha, has become one of my favorite in watch list. After Vivah, I didn't really like Shahid's character much in his latter films, but this movie changed my perception about him. He can become chocolate boy and dabangg boy when script requires. His expression, dialog delivery, tone, fighting scenes, attitude everything is damn good. Sonakshi fared very well in movie, great expression, some scenes are worth remembering and looked extremely beautiful. Good job Dabangg girl. Songs are good and worth watching once in a while. Even if story lacks unreal logic, its FULL ON entertainer. You can expect everything you want in a masala entertainment movie. Both Sonu and Shahid did justice to their roles. Fighting scenes are good, climax is unreal but great, chemistry is good too. Will give 8/10 for this underrated movie. If critics underrate it, it doesn't mean you won't like it. After all, everyone's got different taste.

This movie doesn't give us anything that we haven't seen a million times before. A hero that can give Superman a run for the money, who don't care for any rules, and is willing to do anything for his love. The matching of Sahid and Sonakshi in this movie is just wrong. No real chemistry between those two. The songs are barely above average. Overall a mindless time filler.

But what else to expect from Pravudeva. He's been recycling materials from south and found a niche following in Bollywood. He's obviously very impressed with Sonakshi as he's been signing her for a lot of his projects. Problem with his movie is that those bits have been done by others before him long before. So watching a movie where the hero breaks the laws of physics gets old real quick. Sahid just don't fit into this kind of role, something that Salman and Akshay have been doing for a while.
