Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

It was a long time I had seen Sunny Deol in an action drama film, the genre in which he lives up to all the expectations.Really, I had never seen any of his film in theatre and this is the first film and the best action drama film of all time, that not only is great by its title, but also in terms of entertainment. The music is well written and sung,especially the title song and"Daaru band kal se".The performances have been excellent. Anil Sharma has created not the second Gadar,but the first Singh Saab The Great. The action scenes are heart winning and story-its simply inspiring.We all need to understand that such offbeat films offer what is reality we see in the time today and we need not to miss this film, even if one has been to theatre before the release of this film.On the whole, a solid entertainer that entertains till its running time,i.e,150 minutes.A Dhamaal Entertainer!It has Blockbuster written all over it!

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.

Though SSTG did show a great promise in its promos offering something unique and powerful, it sadly fails to give you the same in its 150 minutes of content and turns out to be just a routine revenge saga depicted with the loud roar and nothing else. Beginning with a very lengthy introduction of Singh Saab along with a great title song, it goes on following a typical 80s progression of a loud action packed emotional drama with an overdose of songs, entirely depending upon the second half coming up with some explosive scenes.But then the second half also doesn't live up to the expectations raised, with not many impressive dialogues and completely predictable sequences offering nothing other than the routine. Yes, the film has its few pulsating moments, fine emotions and the good old Sunny Deol back in his most loved action avatar too as the smartly dressed turbaned Sikh. Moreover, his 'Dhai Kilo Ka Haath' has now turned into a "Saade Teen Kilo Ka Haath" eventually. And he again proves to be the only believable hero making all those terrifying roars and hitting solid punches to the rivals throwing them at a good distance like stones. Yet the engaging energy & thrill is somehow missing, as we have already seen enough of this revengeful stuff, in many different versions repeatedly in the last few decades. Particularly it is now becoming too boring and tiring to see Prakash Raj doing the same old things in every second film in front of the big hero without any fresh vision. To say it bluntly, even the south films repeatedly made around the similar confrontation drama, add much more to their scripts in order to engage the viewers in an entertaining manner. But here one doesn't find anything exceptional in its entire 150 minutes in terms of interesting entertainment and even veterans like Johny Lever, Sanjay Mishra and Manoj Pahwa remain wasted with Johny Bhai also going over the top in few of his opening scenes.Being completely focused on Singh Saab alone, the film has Sunny Deol looking impressive in his different get-ups and the action hero fits to his given character like a 'T' very convincingly. However the writers have not defined his value system properly by adding a few silly insertions, like the scene wherein Sunny leaves a boy easily (rather lovingly), who was just going to throw acid on a girl's face. And later when the "People's Man" doesn't find anything objectionable to dance with an item girl in the rival's den, picking her up in his arms, singing a song with the lyrics, "Khaike Palang Torh Paan". No doubt, the masses are sure going to ignore these minor hiccups as they love seeing their favourite actor hitting the goons like a super-human with a huge roar of a lion. But honestly I strongly felt that with the social issues angle incorporated well, the character of Singh Saab could have shaped much better than the existing one, with a much careful and effective writing.In the supporting cast Amrita Rao is just OK but her added accent does become annoying at times after the initial scenes. Urvashi Rautela looks good at screen but gets nothing much to in the film as per the role given. Prakash Raj, as said before has simply lost the novelty playing the identical kind of roles again and again. Anjali Abrol plays it fine and so does Rajit Kapoor in his few scenes.Musically the film has a well written, brilliantly composed and superbly sung title track "Singh Saab The Great" by Sonu Nigam and few other above average tracks too based on Punjabi folk music. But 'more than required' use of songs in the background (in a repetitive mode) actually spoils the mood of the film to a large extent and they could have easily done without it in order to make it more sharp and effective. The track "Daaru Band Kal Se" also has a surprise entry of both Dharmendra and Bobby Deol which again is sure to please the die-hard fans of Deol family a lot. Cinematography works well along with the action director, but background score does tend to become loud and a lot musical too unnecessarily.In all, SSTG is a typical action packed revenge drama, made on the lines of what Dharmendra used to do in the 80s like PAAP KO JALAAKAR RAAKH KAR DOONGA & many more. The film could have reached another level, exploiting the 'social-reform' angle a lot more, taking SINGH SAAB out of a fixed region dealing with more than one evil man as it seems. Still, in its present version, it thankfully ends on a positive note and is sure going to find more takers in the north and single screens, in comparison to all the other centers. Besides, any long time Sunny Deol fan is obviously going to watch it irrespective of any kind of review or star ratings.

Singh Saab is a really great movie. must must watch for everyone. Its much better than ram-Leela, Chennai express type of movies... that teach you nothing... this is a movie from which everybody will actually learn... I like the ending very much... villain is not killed but changed to good human values... i would greatly recommend this movie... learn from this movie... every hero tries to show his prowess with powerful action scenes... this is not what this movie teaches... this movie teaches badlav... which make more sense than badla... really a treat to watch this movie.. all khans are a failure in front of sunny ... u will see a simple sunny with great message... simple living high thinking type
