Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 03/19/2019
1.5/5
On this one-liner of a plot, Rajkumar Santoshi has built a two-and-a-half-hour film which is meant to make us laugh, but ends up making us groan instead. Go to Full Review Anna M.M. Vetticad annavetticadgoes2themovies 01/15/2023

It’s funny and goofy, sweet even when it's being silly, a good ol’ clean comedy from Bollywood after a long time. Go to Full Review Shilpa Jamkhandikar Reuters 06/05/2017
Phata Poster Nikhla Hero could have been funnier, but director Santoshi drags it too long and loses the viewer mid-way. Go to Full Review Priya Joshi Digital Spy 09/20/2013

Samuel O 01/17/2024 La película es demasiado buena, todas sus escenas y personajes son conmovedores, la verdad muy recomendada See more Ahmed M 06/05/2016 Phata Poster Nikla Hero feels like a missed opportunity at what could've been an amazing movie, but fails to be so, because of poor writing. See more 06/29/2014 Shahid Kapoor! (another movie I discovered onboard a flight- and just obtained it and finished watching yesterday). What the title means is 'breaking out from a poster to become a real-life hero'.. and that is what Vishwas accomplishes by the end of the movie.. shuffling between becoming an actor (his dream), an unwitting hero (daily encounters), and eventually a real-life policeman (his mother's dream). The fight sequences were quite well chereographed, including some slo-mo ones. The mother looked rather young, and the chick was quite likeable. The comedy.. enough for grins :) Gimme more SK! See more 12/26/2013 A very funny and entertaining comedy movie, with a good storyline, very good performances and okay action. Enjoy if you're into typical action comedies! First-Half Rating: 3/5 Second-Half Rating: 3.5/5 Total Movie Rating: 4/5 Business Rating: 3/5 Verdict: Semi Hit See more 11/26/2013 entertaining film music is gud 2 See more 10/14/2013 excellent film... full entertainment...
