Be it as brutal violators or patronising saviours of women, Simmba shows that it all boils down to the same toxic masculinity which the men behind Simmba have been perpetuating film after film. Go to Full Review

How much one warms up to the excesses of an incessantly roaring Simmba will depend wholly on the extent of our willingness to lay down our critical faculties and lap up this championing of vigilantism. Go to Full Review
Poulomi Das Arré 03/11/2019
If Simmba is Rohit Shetty's idea of what justice looks for women, I can only hope that we don't have to sit through a film that is his version of what equality looks like. Go to Full Review

...it degenerates into yet another badly-written Tamil comedy. Go to Full Review

Simmba is a watered-down version - more Distemper than Temper. Go to Full Review
Devesh Sharma Filmfare 01/02/2019
3.5/5
If Sanjay Leela Bhansali is the director who made Ranveer into an actor having a cupboard full of awards, Rohit Shetty is the person who will be credited with turning him into a massy hero. Go to Full Review

Navaneeth S 10/25/2024 "Hey FilmSquads! 💖🎥 I recently watched this film and gave it 2.5/5 ⭐️ and 5.5/10 📝, primarily due to Ranveer Singh's impressive acting 🤩, engaging storyline 📚, and thundering music 🎵. If you've seen the Tamil movies 'Motta Siva Ketta Siva', 'Theri', and 'Ayogya' 🎬, you'll notice some familiar scenes in it 🤔. This movie sheds light on women's security 💪 and how Simmba handles the case 👮. The first half shows Ranveer Singh's comedic side 😂, while the second half reveals his transformation into a responsible police officer 💼. The dialogues are brilliantly written 💫; some will trigger your emotions ❤️, while others may spark anger 🔥. The climax and post-credit scene are impressive 🤯, and the cameo roles stole the show 🎭. This movie paves the way for the COP universe 🚀."

Set in the same universe as Singham, you'll notice similarities but the movie still entertains. See more yash b 11/02/2021 A lot of "Simmba" is nonsensical and pretty dumb, but at its core, it does have a good heart. Make no mistake, this isn't a good movie by any means, but since it is well-intentioned, it is also not a completely awful one either. The first hour was a struggle because it felt like it was going through the motions of a movie designed to be mindless entertainment and nothing really interesting or new happened. The second half was a bit better, but the movie is still very overdramatic and struggles with focusing on the over-the-top action scenes that probably work the best. The storytelling is messy and the message feels a bit misplaced in a movie like this, so ultimately I am not sure the movie works. There are fun moments where I could turn my brain off and enjoy it, but overall this movie is not really worth the time. See more 06/03/2020 Copy of a south movie. See more 09/12/2019 I know I am being a massive contrarian here, but yes, I enjoyed Simmba. You can atleast be this generous for Rohit Shetty. He only knows how to pull off comfort in the mass movies. And 'Simmba' offers a good slice of the mainstream. Ranveer Singh pulls off the old world charm in a no-nonsense, corrupt but sensible performance, and Rohit shines in his best film. 'Simmba' is unhealthy, but deliciously creative entertainment with all the element all over the place, and style of substance, flight of fancy. Cop universe's got its finest supercop- I mean their Captain America. With its referential excitement it soars on screen. I am going with 2.5 for 'Simmba'. Ranveer Singh makes the film's score go up.
