Sunny Deol saves the film from falling into pit
5 January 2014
There was a time when Sunny Deol was the reigning action hero as he had charisma and personality to pull off the action-drama roles with ease. After a long gap, he emerges back from the surface and gives you a punchy hardcore masala film.

Singh Saab The Great tells the story of a messiah who believes in "Change" rather than "Revenge" as he suffers a setback after losing his wife in a good verses evil battle.

From the director cult Gadar, Anil Sharma brings back the action- melodrama of 90's into the current scenario. Though the theme of the subject is well-intentioned , it is direction and screenplay which takes a backseat. The first half of the film literally does not have any impactful scenes except for the interaction between Sunny Deol and Prakash Raj. It is the second half which makes the film interesting and whole pictures heaves a sigh of relief. Art direction and cinematography are good. Action scenes are over-rated. Not sure why Hindi films displays people flying in the air with a single punch. Music is terrible. It is Sunny Deol who saves the film from falling into pit. He emotes, punches and delivers exceptionally well. Amrita Rao and Prakash Raj are passable.

If you are big fan of Sunny Deol, you will enjoy it otherwise it is a plain average film. Decent 2.75/5
