This is one of the best movies ever made Regarding Mumbai Politics. Anil Sharma does it again. Sunny Deol dialogues are the best as usual. And I believe he should deserve an Award. The problem is that lot of people in Mumbai, won't understand Punjabi and Most of the words are in Punjabi. Urvashi has acted really well. Words said by each actor is true to their character. Songs are not 100% the best but still I believe this year's best Actor award should go to Sunny Paaji. But It"s gonna be a tight fight between Singh Saab, Krissh 3, up coming Dhoom 3 and Chennai Express. I would highly encourage everyone to watch this film and decide it for yourself. This movie is truly against Racism......God bless.
Anil Sharma reunites with Sunny Deol once again after a hiatus with 'Singh Saab the Great'. And luckily, Sunny is in good from & the film is pretty entertaining. It doesn't disappoint!
'Singh Saab the Great' Synopsis: A TV journalist uncovers a mysterious hero's back story, who once worked as a tax collector, before being imprisoned for 6 years.
'Singh Saab the Great' is predictable & clichéd, but entertaining nevertheless. The narrative is arresting & the raw action-sequences are effective. Shaktimaan's Screenplay is been-there-seen-that, but fiery dialogue & some well-written sequences, make it work. Anil Sharma's Direction is skilled. Cinematography is grand. Editing is fair. Music by Sonu Nigam & Anand Raj Anand, is passable.
Performance-Wise: Sunny shines in the central role. He's still got the intensity & the energy he's known for. Urvashi Rautela is decent. Amrita Rao is impressive. Prakash Raj makes for a worthy nemesis. He's absolutely loathsome. Anjali Abrol is credible. Johny Lever & Sanjay Mishra are funny. Yashpal Sharma & Manoj Pahwa are good.
On the whole, 'Singh Saab the Great' is entertaining.

There was a time when Sunny Deol was the reigning action hero as he had charisma and personality to pull off the action-drama roles with ease. After a long gap, he emerges back from the surface and gives you a punchy hardcore masala film.
Singh Saab The Great tells the story of a messiah who believes in "Change" rather than "Revenge" as he suffers a setback after losing his wife in a good verses evil battle.
From the director cult Gadar, Anil Sharma brings back the action- melodrama of 90's into the current scenario. Though the theme of the subject is well-intentioned , it is direction and screenplay which takes a backseat. The first half of the film literally does not have any impactful scenes except for the interaction between Sunny Deol and Prakash Raj. It is the second half which makes the film interesting and whole pictures heaves a sigh of relief. Art direction and cinematography are good. Action scenes are over-rated. Not sure why Hindi films displays people flying in the air with a single punch. Music is terrible. It is Sunny Deol who saves the film from falling into pit. He emotes, punches and delivers exceptionally well. Amrita Rao and Prakash Raj are passable.
If you are big fan of Sunny Deol, you will enjoy it otherwise it is a plain average film. Decent 2.75/5

People may think its not a new concept, Sunny is again looking for revenge. But this movies has everything - mas ala, emotions, great acting and dialogue delivery. Some people also comparing this movie with Dabangg and its sequel but its way better than both. This movie has a message, great direction and acting. Movie is original with original work by real actors and director. If Sunny cannot fight with twenty people at a time, then no actor can do that. Sunny brought many awesome movies and never did big campaigns to launch his movies. But now a days who ever can get more publicity on face book or you tube those actors think that they are better than these legends. I must say Sunny is back which we were missing from many years. All the very best team!!
Movie has a good first half where we get to see the basic premise of the movie as well as to get to know the characters of the movie. The first half was much better than the second half of the movie.
Pros :- Sunny Deol's performance, Some good dialogs, Good Messages throughout movie.
Cons :- Comedy of Johnny Lever & Sanjay Mishra falls flat., Avg. songs, Loose second half.
If you like Sunny Deol's movies you will not be disappointed. The movie could have been better with better direction especially in the second half of the movie. The comedy scenes were misplaced, action scenes were good but i prefer raw style of Sunny Deol (Damini, Ghayal & Ghatak type) instead of these crap wire action sequences. A good movie with good messages throughout but with same old formula. It is like an old wine in a new bottle.
