Rowdy Rathore beats you to a pulp, cinematically. It's a relentless assault that kicks in as soon as the credit titles roll.

Rated: 1/5

Variety

Big, dumb and pretty good fun once the flat first hour is over, Bollywood masala Rowdy Rathore makes the grade on the strength of Akshay Kumar's charismatic dual perfs as a supercop killed on duty and a lookalike thief who takes his place.

Outlook

Predictably, Rowdy goes about setting things straight. But he takes way too long, making the film stretch on like a tasteless wad of chewing gum.

Rated: 2/4

Rowdy Rathore wastes nearly an hour setting up plot points that should have taken no more than fifteen minutes, and the film suffers for it.

The film's an unabashed, gunpowder-hot, sambar-spiced star-vehicle which runs along energetically most of the time because [of] its star Akshay Kumar.

Rated: 3/5

The very funny and charming Sonakshi Sinha, by the way, plays Shiva's romantic interest. But the love story seems much less important than the mayhem.

Rated: 3/5

I liked this. Akshay Kumar in the Rowdy avatar felt like a fresh change and the 'masala' was just enough to keep me entertained.

The only reason this movie is so what good, is because of the average story.
