Sikandar

Salman Khan fans should avoid this completely.

For few years Salman has been essaying same roles in the same tone.

Trailer of the film was bad and the film is even worse.

Story of the film is lackluster. Viewers will be left confused about origin of their hero. Villains are a joke in this film. Objective of film is not clear till the very end.

Salman's acting is fake. Emotions are looking forced on his face. His dancing skills have gone downhill. That monotone acting has become irritating now!

He needs to retire just like Dhoni should retire from IPL!

Salman is losing his fans one film at a time... He should stop having songs at all in his films. It was embarrassing for us to watch him dance in a wobbly manner.

Songs are forced in the movie. They are not even good.

Sharman Joshi has been wasted, Sathyaraj's dialogues have not been dubbed properly.

All departments fail in this film... Even the release date of film on Sunday is a blunder ... making it lose over 100-150 crores. Sunday is unlucky for Salman. Tiger 3 was the biggest example.

Totally avoidable...

When I say, "What has happened to Salman?" I mean it for real. From giving some great acting masterpeice starting from Maine Pyar Kiya, Hum Saath Saath Hain, Bajrangi Bhaijaan & Tubelight to this? Almost every second of the movie felt like he was forced to act, and not like there is anyone in Bollywood who can force Salman Khan. Clearly shows he has no interest in acting anymore. Also the writers should try something different, again all similar storyline of B-wood. Dailogues felt pretty unreal, Rashmika also seem like she was reading the dailogues off a book lol, not even a single good delivery. Entire film felt like a disaster in terms of acting, thanks to Kajal saving some acting in second half. The film is a great product for Mass Action loving audience, not for core cinema lovers. Has a weak storyline, whole lot of flaws, and ofcourse no logic in fight scenes. One time entertainer as a mass action film nothing else.

Behold the cinematic calamity that is Sikandar, a film that bravely attempts to cobble together a handful of semi-decent ideas before swan-diving into a cesspool of cringe and archaic South Indian tropes that even a time machine couldn't salvage. The narration limps along like a bored tortoise, while the screenplay tosses in a few tolerable scenes and lines before collapsing into a flat, dull, snooze-fest that could double as a cure for insomnia.

Salman Khan graces the screen looking like he's about to get admited in a hospital," his acting is no better.

Kajal Agarwal in her limited and unimportant role appears to have traded her charm for a face full of fillers and Botox, rendering her a plastic caricature with the same old subpar performance we've come to dread.

Rashmika, whose grating voice and overacting could make a saint weep, and you've got a Salman-Rashmika duo so mismatched, it felt absurd and agonizing.

Sathyaraj's turn as the antagonist is about as convincing as a toddler in a trench coat pretending to be a mob boss, while the rest of the cast flails valiantly in this sinking ship. The production values are passable, like a participation trophy for effort, but the music is a forgettable dirge that fails to stir the soul. The direction? A relic of a bygone era, so outdated it might as well have been shot on a flip phone.

In short, Sikandar is a cinematic misadventure not worth the popcorn you'd choke on while trying to endure it. Save your time, your money, and your sanity-skip this one.

You know that feeling when you wake up from a Sunday afternoon nap, confused about what year it is? That's exactly how I felt after watching Sikandar-except I never actually napped, because the movie wouldn't let me. Not with its relentless lack of plot, bizarre dialogues, and action sequences that made me question the laws of physics.

The film apparently has a "social message," but even by the end credits, I was as clueless about it as I am about why I even bought the tickets. Maybe the message was "Don't waste your time on a Sunday afternoon."

I took my uncle along, thinking it would be a great bonding experience. At one point, I was seriously considering whether a power cut at the theater would be a blessing in disguise. But no, Sikandar powered through like a relentless telegram from a broker who's looking to short sell.

The only silver lining? Ice cream. Post-movie, we drowned our sorrows in frozen desserts, which, unlike Sikandar, actually made sense and left a sweet aftertaste.

Final rating: (quater star for the ice cream, none for the movie).

Sikandar Movie Review - A Complete Letdown

Just watched Sikandar, and it was a huge disappointment. The film was marketed as an action-packed mass entertainer, but what we actually got was a boring, outdated emotional drama with logicless fights and a weak storyline.

Story: The ruler of Rajkot finds himself in conflict with a powerful minister as he sets out on a mission to protect those who have received his late wife's organ donations-determined to keep her legacy alive at any cost. Despite its emotional premise, the execution feels bland and fails to create a meaningful impact.

What went wrong?

❌ Logicless action scenes - Fights are completely unrealistic, with Salman defeating enemies in the most ridiculous ways. Even for a mass film, it goes overboard.

Slow and outdated screenplay - The emotional drama is forced, and the storytelling feels like something from the early 2000s.

Misleading marketing - The trailer promised an action-packed entertainer, but the movie is just a stretched-out emotional mess.

Zero freshness - The same old formula with nothing new to offer.

The only decent part is the music (Zohra Jabeen, Bam Bam Bhole), but even that isn't enough to save the film.

Final Verdict: Sikandar is one of Salman Khan's weakest films in recent years. Even hardcore fans might struggle to sit through it. If you expect good action and a strong story, stay away.

I suggest you not to waste your time on this movie. Instead rewatch bhajrangi bhaijaan it's 100 times better than sikandar

Rating: 2/5.
