Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express I expected Himmatwala to be predictable. I also expected it to be annoying, and it doesn't disappoint on both scores. But I didn't think it would be so dull. Rated: 1.5/5 Mar 20, 2019 Full Review Anil Sinanan Time Out Like the title of one of its five songs, this film is 'tacky oh tacky' fun. Rated: 3/5 Oct 20, 2017 Full Review Simon Foster sbs.com.au As grotesque and garish a spectacle as I've seen in quite some time, this Hindi remake of a coarse and unremarkable hit comedy from 1983 is cringe-worthy and puerile. Apr 4, 2013 Full Review Priya Joshi Digital Spy You have to be a 'himmatwala' to endure this. Rated: 2/5 Mar 30, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Ahmed M This movie had a really great scene towards the end of the movie, sorry, oh, it's called the credits, oh sorry about that, turns out there were no good or great scenes in the movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/27/16 Full Review Audience Member wrst muvi of the year award goes to himmatwala nd zanjeer Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member worst film of 2013............. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This film should be shown to all the upcoming directors as to how not to make a worst film like this. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member crap!! never try to do a 90's style in 2013 guys!the audience won't bear it these days unlike then :D STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLEASE! :d Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member First of all my deepest condolences to all the people who had gone to theatres and spent their precious dime and time on this movie,because the movie isnt even worth to watch after downloading it from the torrent(even i am writing this review after painfully sustaining only half of the movie).Secondly,someone should ask Sajid Khan to what genre the 150 min torcher belong,because ultimately one will be confused that is it action or comedy or thriller or pure emotional drama or what the hell!!! Direction of the movie fails to recreate the original scene by scene sparing us anymore poignance than the film already is.Acting seems like each and every actor presumes that the producer isnt going to give them even a single penny.Also the action sequence lacks the phenomenal.Dialogues appears to be easily anticipated.Though i appears to be harsh in my review,but one thing i must admit that the music direction is great.To conclude i must say that sajid will be real himmatwaala if he make its sequel. PROS:sharpen your capability to endure movies like this in future CONS:The list is long. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
