Featured review
Action Jackson is an action thriller film directed by Prabhu Deva. The film stars Ajay Devgn, Sonakshi Sinha, Yami Gautam, Manasvi Mamgain, Kunaal Roy Kapur and Anandaraj.
A small-time goon falls in love with a clumsy girl. Before the two lovers can embark on a romantic journey, he comes face-to-face with his lookalike.
Prabhu Deva made a block buster film Rowdy Rathore and it seems that he is not coming out of the hangover of that film as the plot and execution of this film is very similar of that film but this film is less entertaining, more irritating and jokes are just flat. There are some positives with the film such as beautiful cinematography, choreographed action scenes and acting of Ajay Devgn but all this is overshadowed by a weak storyline, pathetic direction, loud BGM, terrible execution and above all Sonakshi Sinha who just irritates whenever she is on screen.
The plot of the film is similar to Rowdy Rathore and execution is almost similar but as mentioned earlier this film is less funny, less entertaining and more irritating.
Screenplay of the film is average. Acting is superb by Ajay Devgn and apart from Ajay Devgn, Yami Gautam was to much extent impressive, Kunal Roy Kapur was average, Manasvi tries hard but fails to impress, Anandaraj was badly underused and Sonakshi Sinha irritates to the core. It's high time that she should understand that acting is not her cup of tea and try her hands in anything apart from acting.
The climax of the film is very violent and brutal, typical action lovers and hardcore fans of Ajay devgn will like this film for others a terrible film to watch.
