Everyone was waiting for this movie to release. The reason, "Akshay Kumar" returning in the action genre after a very long period & also "Prabhu Deva" as a director for second time in bollywood.His first bollywood directorial debut was Wanted starring Salman Khan. It was a huge Hit back then. The return of bollywood Masala genre that had been left behind on 90's. What i mean about bollywood masala is, one man hero show or may say the hero is larger then life where one can fight 100 of villains with his bare hand and defeat all of them & doesn't get a scratch or whatsoever. So lets come back to this movie. The title Rowdy Rathore sounds pretty interesting. As i was guessing it to be a good action packed movie with some of akshay's martial arts move. But to my surprise it was not like that at all. Because the promo of this movie looked pretty Rowdy with some fearsome dialogs. But the action is not to the level that the audience expected. Seems like akshay is out of shape now a days because you can compare his action movies in the late 90's & this one. Its far different then of those 90's movies.Back then his movies used to be full of great kicks & martial arts but now u can barely see him doing a round kick or high kicks at all. After he got into the comedy genre, he have forgotten all his moves. The movie starts with some comedy.And the comedy is not fresh.We have seen the same scene in so many other movies. It seems like the writers have just copied & paste it.For example the first scene when Shiva & his friend try to split the money, they just copied the entire scene from the movie "chup chupke", where pares rawal and om puri delivers the same dialogs in a better way. The romantic part was unnecessary. The only part that i was focused was when Bikram rathore's story begins. The character was larger then life. The presence of this character was very dynamic. They could have shorten the comedy parts & could have longer this part more.Watching this reminded me of Ajay Devgan in the movie "Singham". Akshay looked really good in this bold character & the dialogs was also matching the character.But After sometime, again comes the boring part. The magic is gone after they killed the character Rathore. They tried to put some comedy again & it was very boring. The guy Paresh, who played as a friend of Shiva(Akshay) is useless. He can do much better then that.Sonakshi who plays the lead actress is also useless. She has been put in some really unnecessary scenes. Like in the climax when the villains have kidnapped her & rathore's daughter, she says some really funny dialogs that doesn't match with her character at all.Its kinda annoying then funny.Some songs are nice though but not really Awesome.The songs choreography was not so impressive, as the audience expects more when it is prabhu deva's movie. On the whole i give it a 4 star(only for the scene that i mentioned above).
