You expect alot from a ranbir kapoor film. He's agreat actor and he proves that in this film as well. The visual appeal of the film is also great but the only thing that doesn't allow the film to connect was the story. The story was bad but it had a lot of loose ends, cliches and some predictable outcomes. The first somehow manages to intrigue you but in the second half you will feel disconnected and uninterested somehow. This is not a great film i would say but it is also not a bad film. If you just want to watch and enjoy the film casually then this will surely entertain you but for a cinephile the experience might be a bit tedious.
Waste of money.
Regretting going for the movie.
Plot is seems to be inspired from Bahuballi, Sholay, Badrinath (Telugu), Mad Max and of course Thugs.
Acting wise Ranbir has done a normal job like we do have better actors around its isn't like he was phenomenal. Just being honest.
Vaani is good with the songs and few scenes- wonder if costume designers really put in research work when they did the clothes. *Bikini* tops in the 17th century wow.
Sanju is trying hard did a decent job he isn't a strong actor to begin with except Vastav, Munnabhai..... Saurabh Shukla needs to get more roles his a gem.
Can we also talk about the cinematography and production design being below par. Music is ok considering YRF has such amazing background for worthwhile music.
I was so BORED yet another FLOP from YRF. Don't take it in the wrong way but I'm a genuine YRF/ Aditya fan but they have been disappointing me for the longest.

A pure waste of money, time and acting. It's a very poor adaptation of several scenes from Bahubali and couple of other Hollywood movies. The movie has no story, screenplay or action.
Waste Of Time, Waste Of Money, & lots of headache after watching SHAMSHERA. The Director has a good story but God knows what he is thinking while directing this movie. Movie is so stretched that I can't even talk about it. From the start itself the plots lose the connection and the audience can't even connect with the storyline. Songs are the worst part in the movie. After every 10 mins one song is there to irritate you. I mean why we have to be reliable on songs when you have a good story. Poor direction,worst screenplay intact sometimes dialogues also gets bored while watching the movie. Only Ranbir Kapoor performance was great & Vaani Kapoor dance performance was good. Rest cast are below average. Once again A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT from Yashraj.

From the start movie is disappointing, and then they deliberately making fun of Hinduism, I had to walk out from the movie, totally disgusting to watch. Better feed poor or your servants this weekend, rather than watch this epic fail from Bollywood once again!!!

- TriviaThe origins of Shamshera was as follows. There was news earlier that Tigmanshu Dhulia was planning to make a film based on the life of notorious dacoit Sultana Daku (2015) in who used to operate in North India during the British Raj and was considered as the Indian version of Robin Hood. Many actors were eager to play this magnetic character. But it is then it was said that Tigmanshu would not make the film but Madhureeta Anand would do, and it was to be produced by Rahul Mittra and Raju Chadha. As per news, Randeep Hooda had been signed to play Sultana Daku and the film was to go on floors in April 2018. It was to be a screen adaptation of author- playwright Sujit Saraf's 2009 novel, 'The Confession of Sultana Daku'. Meanwhile, there was talk of the book being translated into a British feature with Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the lead and Shekhar Kapur's protege Heeraz Marfatia as the director. All plans were dropped. Finally the project was made as Shamshera with Yash Raj Productions.
