Rowdy Rathore (2012)


[Action Packed Entertainer ]

Rowdy Rathore (2012)
IMDB- 6.8
RJGrating- 75

Shiva, a petty theif, has his life turned around when he finds a little girl.

Starring- Akshay Kumar
Director- Prabhudeva

Rowdy Rathore is Prabhudeva's second Hindi movie as director after 2009's Wanted.The movie is a remake of Telungu movie Vikramarkudu.

Akshay plays a double role in the movie.One as Shiva ,the thief and the other as Rathore ,the cop.Even though the thief role is just like the usual roles Akshay plays in all his recent movie ,its his role as Rathore that steals the show.Akshay being an action hero is completely at ease in this movie.Sonakshi is just eye candy and doesnt do much.The supporting cast too arent of much help either.The kid has only one real role that is too look cute and sad at all times.

The story isnt something unheard of.Its the usual double role story mixed with vengeance for justice.

Prabhudeva once again shows off his style through Rowdy Rathore as he did for Wanted.The movie's main highlight are its action scenes.The first half is not very great ,it trudges along with a couple of songs and some comedy.Added to this is the confusing backstory.But luckily the second half clears up the backstory and increases the intensity of the action scenes.The movie has just the right amount of drama and unlike movies that follow the improbable fights + slapstick comedy routine (Dabangg ,Ready) ,Rowdy has just the right amount of both ,like Wanted.

While the comedy is just passable its the action scenes that provide the most excitement.The dialogues are noteworthy especially in the second half.Punchlines dished out by Akshay as Rathore are fun.The comedy is at its best towards the end.

Overall,Rowdy Rathore is for fans of Akshay , and for those who just want to see some good masala entertainment.
