Sooryavanshi

Went to see a movie in theatre after almost 2 years, but was a total disappointment. Bad action, childish VFX and poor direction. Last 2 years was the evolution of web series and one big thing i have noticed is that web series are far superior then the big screen movies in term of direction, screenplay and the intensity they create.

I am amazed that in this day and age of the "evolved audience" that there are still subscribers for such drivel. It's the audience that encourage directors like Rohit Shetty to dish out such crap and expect to make a profit. A few car wrecks, slow motion walking, sunglasses wearing top cop who single handedly destroys a network of terrorist sleeper cell. Wish combating real life terrorist were that simple. To top it up the movie makers prey on people's patriotism and emotion by seemingly dedicating the movie to the brave men of law. Wow quite a scam to get money from your wallet to their coffers. Akshay Kumar should know it takes more than just hanging from helicopters, making snide remarks and belittling others in a movie to be respected as an actor. Katrina presence was barely felt in the movie. I guess at 38 her days as a leading actress is winding down. Ajay Devgun and Ranveer were thrown into the pot just in case the audience got tired of Akshay's antics. Folks this movie didn't work for me.

Watched sooryavanshi yesterday

My review: the film had no new element, same remake songs, same indo-pak rivalry & jokes that are not at all funny. In my opinion whole movie is forced just to announce Singham 3. Rohit sir we know your love for ajay sir but this is not the way.

Most disappointing thing is the song 'Tip tip barsa paani' there was never a need for this song in the film. Singham's entry was too hyped but couldn't deliver upto the mark, Although i enjoyed simmba's comedy, it was not needed in the climax scene.

The only good thing about the film was the temple scene, where the Hindu-muslims harmony can be scene. The bangkok chase scene was just not needed.. they should learn from 'DON 2' how to present a good chase scene. Although i didn't liked the film, my friends loved it.

I can totally understand why they loved the film. Its not a good sensible movie but can be enjoyed with friends & family. A typical mass entertainer for audiences who love to whistle in theatres. Katrina's acting was pathetic, it's been 19 years and she still can't act.

Akshay kumar can't even cry perfectly, he's just made for comedy movies and he should stick to that. Have seen every akshay kumar films and can say for sure he can't cry in screen. First half was very slow & dull, never for once felt excited before interval. 2nd half was decent.

Overall it's a decent one time watch for mass audience and everyone should watch it once to support our theatres & bollywood. Expected more from Rohit sir but it's okay he is also human. Waiting for Singham 3 and hope it will not disappoint us.

My ranking (4/10)

Review By Kamal K

Raising the curtain with '93 blasts in Mumbai, the story focuses on a major chunk of explosive material left from the blast, linking it with a couple of fugitives who managed to escape back then. Veer Sooryavanshi (Akshay Kumar) is handled the mission by his superior Kabir Shroff (Jaaved Jaaferi), who though was the star of solving the '93 bombing case but he still regrets some of the choices he made.

Sooryavanshi, along with managing his family issues with wife Riya (Katrina Kaif), investigates the missing RDX which, they get a leak about, could be used for multiple bomb blasts in Mumbai. With help from his old colleagues Simmba (Ranveer Singh) & Singham (Ajay Devgn), Sooryavanshi races against the time, hoping to stop the ticking bomb avoiding a lethal disaster.

I expected from this year's biggest hit movie that it will be successful in giving good comedy and action. But despite being a mass entertainer, the film does not get any kind of entertainment. There was no crispiness in the action scenes. The very important helicopter chase scene's VFX looks straight out of a low-budget-high-ambitions movie.

The only good thing about the movie was Singham's entry.

Postive -

Little Bit Comedy Singham's Entry

Negative -

Story Horrible Direction Overacting and lack of acting Poor Vfx.

The dialogues and screenplay are too cliche. Could bear it for more than 20 mins. Not even half way there when compared to Singham 1. The dialogues made me puke . Too dumb and pathetic .
