disgusting, overrated, pointless

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

When I watched the trailer of this film for the first time, I just knew that this film will create a lot of buzz and it actually did through its songs and hoopla around it!! When the film released, the reviews were not expected and quite shocked me!! But I made up my mind to watch the film no matter whatever happens!! And when I saw the film, I completely disagree with those giving negative reviews. I agree that we are used to watching masala-type films and even get bored sometimes but this film doesn't disappoints even for a moment! It exceeded my expectations! The first half is quite good with wonderful songs and actions! But the second half takes the film to another level through its twists and turns!! Overall, R.. Rajkumar is an entertaining film especially for those who love Shahid Kapoor!! It has all the ingredients: Actions, Comedy, Drama, Romance!! The performances by the cast are well-executed! It lives up to its hype!! Solid dialogues by Shahid Kapoor especially: PYAAR PYAAR PYAAR YA MAAR MAAR MAAR delivers a powerful crunch!!!

This movie delivers everything you expect it to deliver from the previews. Shahid is adorable and wonderful. Sonakshi is wonderful and beautiful and fierce. And Sonu Sood is a) incredibly handsome and b) too handsome and beautifully handsome to be the evil villain he plays. He does a great job, but his handsomeness was a bit distracting for me.Dancing: This movie is written, directed and choreographed by Prabhu Deva, so the dancing is amazing and technical. If you are a dancer, watch this movie. Seriously. Some of the stuff Shahid was doing is nothing short of amazing and of course Prabhu has a cameo in one of the songs (Gandi Beat). It was nice to see that Prabhu is capable of dialing it back when he needs to as the "we both just realized we are in love fantasy dance sequence" was low key, and beautiful without all the complex technical moves of the other numbers.Action: Speaking of choreography, this is an action flick. And some of the fight sequences are beautifully choreographed as well. Most of them are jump cut so the flow doesn't allow you to see extended sequences and they could very easily just film individual action shots and cut them together. But there is a fight scene in the middle of the movie where Shahid is fighting 60 guys, and we get a long sequence of uncut moves that are really well done.The final battle between Shahid and Sonu is in sepia tone – to give it more gravitas. It's hokey. They may have chosen that to hide flaws in Shahid's make up because at this point his character had been stabbed twice, beat up and buried alive before heading into the final battle, so... he had a lot of fake blood on him and it might not have looked right in regular color. The battle itself reminded me a bit of the final battle in the 3rd Musashi movie except without the swords. They rush at each other. Fight a bit. Rush at each other and eventually, Shahid, after nearly dying 3 times in the battle manages to land a punch to the throat and they just stand there. For a long while. And no – I'm not giving anything away – obviously Shahid was going to win this battle – duh. Anyway, I thought it was a nice touch and used the main elements that everyone remembers from the final Musashi battle well.Technical Details: As for what I didn't really like. Some of the editing was really odd and distracting. One of the first expository scenes is jump cut with odd angles of the faces talking, ending with extreme close ups. I found it distracting and annoying, especially since I was trying to read subtitles.The other odd choice was a jiggling earthquake effect on the film at a pivotal moment. It was distracting and didn't really add to the scene. Those were the only two moments where this was done. The rest of the movie was well done.The love story was OK – I have mixed feelings about the first half since it involved Shahid stalking Sonakshi and having been a victim of a stalking, it didn't sit well with me. I don't normally get that sort of reaction from other movies where this "following" happens. Normally, I think – ahhh. But I did react badly here so I think they missed the mark. My conclusion: If you like rough action masala – this movie is great. If you like amazing dancing. This movie is really great. Love story? Meh. Really handsome actor – Oh YEAH! Sonu!!!! Music – fun. Worth seeing? Probably.

Never believe what paid critics have to say about any movie. R... Rajkumar was Shahid Kapoor's first full on Action movie and he did a phenomenal job! The colors and vibes of each song pulled you into a world of true love. SK pulled off every action scene flawlessly, you wouldn't even know that this was his first time doing any of these moves. R... Rajkumar perhaps was and is the 1st movie to show off how great of a dancer SK really is. Yes we all know SK can dance but when Prabhu Deva directs a movie and makes you dance you know your inter-talent will show through. And that's what happened with Shahid, every dance move was perfect to the T! There was still that lovable boy in Shahid character Romeo along with his comedy but that's what made his new avatar work and it worked for the best. Sonakshi Sinha role was great, aside from Lootera in this role we were able go she her in a different light. Finding for her love and never giving up. She shows she can act and not to judge her on her past roles. R... Rajkumar is a hit!

Movie is all about entertainment..we should not expect from all movie where we would get thrill..excitement..sometime you need just refreshment..full on masti..and that is what all about R...Rajkumar. Fulltoo mas ala bollywood movie..emotions..love..affection..chicky comedy...awesome action..all in tapori style... Shahid has done very hard work..lots of surprise with Shahid action scene..After Interval you will feel bore for at least 10-15 mins...but wait..picture abhi baki hai mere dost.. :)NOTE : Do not go this movie with shahid Ishq-vishq image..his best after Kaminey.
