DareDevilKid Reviewed by: Dare Devil Kid (DDK)Rating: 3.9/5 starsEven though I've liked all of Tigmanshu Dhulia's prior efforts, in all truthfulness, this is his only other film that I've really loved besides "Paan Singh Tomar". An out-an-out action-comedy with a rustic aura that keeps you wholesomely entertained from start to finish. Saif, Jimmy, & Vidyut are collectively rocking. The direction is snazzy, the plot is decent enough for this genre, the action is raw, the punches hit hard, the kicks look stylish, the bullets fly in all direction, the chase scenes are acrobatic, and the emphatic one-liners keep coming.Dhulia has made a pure guys film that is sure to enthrall fans of this genre, while also offering something in terms of an interesting narrative to neutral fans of action movies or the more loyal fans of the director's staple hard-hitting dramas. This time Dhulia decided on a slight detour from his conventional mold, and boy, did it pay rich dividends. "Bullett Raja" is a pure blast of machismo and unadulterated fun, along with immense repeat value.

snaidu422 In the late 60's Italian Director Sergio Leone made movies featuring Clint Eastwood which were referred to as Spaghetti Westerns, since they were kind of cowboy flicks made in Italy. Now years later, We have Tigmanshu Dhulia hitting base with a movie titled BULLET RAJA which can vye for the same honor-references are made in the film to Sholay-which also successfully tried the same genre.The opening shootout sequence is worth watching, reminding you of the Paul Newman starrer "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". Saif Ali Khan and Jimmy Shergill involved in a back to back gunfight (literally), you have Saif shooting and Jimmy taking time to reload-which gives the audience a taste of what is to come.What can you say about a movie which has two major action sequences in the first half an hour of the movie, if you are an action lover-this movie is for you.Saif and Jimmy become best of pals when the former saves the latter's family from a slaughter led by Chunkey Pandey. Situations force Saif and Jimmy to become political commandos executing opposite party members in style. They are hire for guns to Raj Babar a political leader. A sudden event resulting in a kidnapping makes things sour between the heroes and their master. An event towards the break, makes Saif a kind of a fugitive.The shootouts are executed in style and yes there is tongue in cheek humor before Saif fires a fatal shot. Saif is brilliant in the title role, but it is Jimmy Shergill who steals the show with his brilliant performance. Sonakshi Sinha is wasted as Saif's live-in girl friend, trust me, even if the character was not included, it would not have made much difference to the movie's plot.Mahi Gill manages to raise the heat with her sizzling item song in the opening sequence.Watch the movie if you are an action buff and are kind of tired of all those mushy Bollywood romances

Achyuta Ghosh It felt as if Tigamanshu Dhulia on the sets of Saheb, Biwi, Gangster Returns suddenly decided that he had enough of Machiavellian twists and unlimited adultery. And that it was time to take a break from nuanced, heavy duty fare and make a good, old fashioned mas-ala action movie. And even in this genre Dhulia shows how it is done, folks- Bullet Raja easily takes my vote as the Hindi action extravaganza of the year.Bullet Raja has 75% of the lead star cast (Jimmy Shergill, Raj Babbar, Mahie Gill), 100% of the setting (the heartland of India, Uttar Pradesh), and about 90% of the characters (twisted, scheming politicians, trigger happy gangsters, passionate lovers) of Saheb, Biwi and Gangster Returns. Central to the story is the bromance between Rudra (Shergill) and Raja (Saif), both as different from each other like Rahul and Sourav were, but mighty effective together as only Rahul and Sourav were. Raja is the perennially angry Raavan, who is never one to shy away from a fight. He is essentially Agent Vinod in a rustic environment, the script only requires that he keeps the scowl throughout, but occasionally he lets the court jester in him take over. Shergill is the methodical Rudra, and the movie is about how the two of them reluctantly become feared gangsters, or as it is euphemistically put- political commandos. Like Jai and Veeru, it is very much an ode to friendship and loyalty. In between Raja does get time to romance a hefty Sonakshi Sinha, and put bullet holes in almost anything that moves against him. While it might be just another action movie, Tigamanshu Dhulia has ensured that it carries his stamp of quality all over. The production design is authentic, and never does any scene feel out of place, even the diction in the Bengali sequences is bullseye. The dialogs are exceptionally funny full on desi, and he does an excellent job in portraying the politician-industry nexus with minimal effort. Of special note are the action sequences- they do not feel gravity defying, artificial and wire driven, there is a certain gritty beauty to them. And to counter a raging bull like Raja, Vidyut Jamval's special appearance was a masterstroke- he brings so much of realism to his stunt-work. Raj Babbar's fatherly politician, Vipin Sharma's incarcerated fixer who skypes out of jail, Gulshan Grover's lecherous industrialist, and Ravi Kishan's drag king hit-man are other stupendous characters.Agreed the songs are mostly an interference, Sonakshi Sinha does her regular dumb girl act here too, and the film could have been a bit shorter. Bullet Raja is that rare Dhulia film that is not destined for any awards, but when it comes to enjoyment and entertainment this year, it is right up there. Do not look at ratings, take a leap of faith, bite this bullet- 8/10

Ishan Arora I would like to keep it short... Remove all the songs.Of course, not the one starring Mahi Gill. The movie could have been shorter. Seriously after interval I had no motivation to see the other half. It was quite predictable Raja Mishra would have his revenge in the second half and the movie shall end .But I did not quit and finally I was presented with a nice ending. A good thought has been given into the movie and has been seasoned with quite a masala. I would say on a Saturday when you are exhausted after working for last 5 days just go and watch the movie. The star cast has been chosen nicely and I totally appreciate the acting of Saif,Jimmy,Raj Babbar,Gulshan Grover....
