 Review

Akshay is in his best form, with his rowdy romance and comedy. Akshay promises raw action in the film and his one-liner ‘Don’t Angry Me’ is already on everyone’s lips. He does very well in the double role. Sonakshi plays a lovable, charming character very well.she is alright and does what is required of her. Especially, the desi girl image suits her character. The child artist playing Akshay's daughter, is really cute. Other characters like Paresh Ganatra, Yashpal Sharma, Gurdeep Kohli adds colour to their respective episodes

What’s Gud

• The comic scenes; the action sequences;Akshay Kumar’s performance.
• Prabhu Devaa’s direction is good as he manages to make narrative fast-paced and interesting for the most part.
  Sajid-Wajid’s music is superb.
  
  

What’s Bad: 

The contrived screenplay; a few boring portions of the drama.

Verdict: On the whole, Rowdy Rathore is entertaining . You’ll enjoy it if you do not have too many expectations.

Watch or Not?: Watch it for Akshay Kumar’s performance and the comedy.
