Bullett Raja





Cast: Saif Ali Khan, Sonakshi Sinha,Jimmy Shergill,Vidyut Jamwal,Gulshan Grover,Raj Babbar
Director: Tigmanshu Dhulia 
Genre: Political Drama, Action

Quite a disappointment in terms of quality, however if you are looking for only masala, it will score better than Chennai Express :)

Minuses:
  • Storyline was such a big time disappointment. Half the story was disconnected, it felt as if all they aimed for with this movie was to showcase UP type masala and a revenge for a brother killed. Add up another star to make up for the second half as seemed like Tigmanshu Dhulia wasn't confident of Saif pulling the entire movie on his shoulders alone :P
  • Romantic angle was pathetic, i have never seen any romance so unhappening and pale and useless and meaningless in my entire Bollywood history. Someone please explain how was the character of Sonakshi written, was that a dope effect or something else
  • A big let down from Tigmanshu Dhulia, we expected much better. If you cannot make romantic angles, please take advices from others(I dont mean Karan Johar :) ), but please dont ruin the entire show with something you have no expertise of
  • OMG, overdose of Sonakshi Sinha, back to back both the weekends her releases, i couldn't conjure more courage to go for Shahid-Sonakshi disaster after watching this. Sonakshi, i think you are called for a voluntary retirement now, please take it and stop torturing the audience

Lukewarm:
  • I was looking forward to Vidyut Jamwal, he was under utilized as well. Though thankfully the gravity of his role wasnt undermined by the end of it, and they scripted one section of it well :)
  • They covered music in all three categories, pathetic, average and good :D Out of which just one soft number is worth a mention :)
  • Action was so-so. As i said, the only star shining had to be Vidyut Jamwal, but even he was underused


Pluses:
  • In the entire movie, the best enjoyable part is the first one hour of the movie before Sonakshi enters(and then everything is screwed, reminds me of 'Kites' :P), and the ending section of the movie (again where Sonakshi wasnt involved :D)
  • Saif gave his best, and somehow suits the rowdy UP type bhaiyya caricature, accent flows in well and doesnt feel made up. I dont mind watching him as long as other paramters of the movie have weight as well, else its still difficult for him to pull an entire movie just by his charm
  • Friendship between Jimmy Shergill and Saif Ali Khan was worth watching out for and the co relation between Vidyut Jamwal and Saif at the end
  • Jimmy Shergill is my personal favortire...cant help appreciating this guy. Thankfully, he remained without a heroine :)
  • Raj Babbar had a gray shade to his role, all due respect, played well :)
  • Gulshan Grover is my personal favorite again :) Short role but good show :)


My rating: 2/5
