Salman Khan fans should avoid this completely.
For few years Salman has been essaying same roles in the same tone.
Trailer of the film was bad and the film is even worse.
Story of the film is lackluster. Viewers will be left confused about origin of their hero. Villains are a joke in this film. Objective of film is not clear till the very end.
Salman's acting is fake. Emotions are looking forced on his face. His dancing skills have gone downhill. That monotone acting has become irritating now!
He needs to retire just like Dhoni should retire from IPL!
Salman is losing his fans one film at a time... He should stop having songs at all in his films. It was embarrassing for us to watch him dance in a wobbly manner.
Songs are forced in the movie. They are not even good.
Sharman Joshi has been wasted, Sathyaraj's dialogues have not been dubbed properly.
All departments fail in this film... Even the release date of film on Sunday is a blunder ... making it lose over 100-150 crores. Sunday is unlucky for Salman. Tiger 3 was the biggest example.
Totally avoidable...

Disappointed. Salman is taking his fans for a ride. Nothing new same old story. Director is good but in trying to make film keeping Salman in mind he falters. Bad screen play. Salman can't act, can't dance he's seen with same old dance moves and has the same expression in the emotional scenes. He looks good only in action scenes. Rashmika is strictly ok but she doesn't have much to do.
People are going to say it a "good enough" movie, entertaining enough to watch once with family, maybe.
Its Not... !!
It's A BAD MOVIE 🎥, not one of the worst though, Its just that , Standards of a movie have dropped low enough to even consider this a Okayish Movie.
A generous 2/5.

Behold the cinematic calamity that is Sikandar, a film that bravely attempts to cobble together a handful of semi-decent ideas before swan-diving into a cesspool of cringe and archaic South Indian tropes that even a time machine couldn't salvage. The narration limps along like a bored tortoise, while the screenplay tosses in a few tolerable scenes and lines before collapsing into a flat, dull, snooze-fest that could double as a cure for insomnia.
Salman Khan graces the screen looking like he's about to get admited in a hospital," his acting is no better.
Kajal Agarwal in her limited and unimportant role appears to have traded her charm for a face full of fillers and Botox, rendering her a plastic caricature with the same old subpar performance we've come to dread.
Rashmika, whose grating voice and overacting could make a saint weep, and you've got a Salman-Rashmika duo so mismatched, it felt absurd and agonizing.
Sathyaraj's turn as the antagonist is about as convincing as a toddler in a trench coat pretending to be a mob boss, while the rest of the cast flails valiantly in this sinking ship. The production values are passable, like a participation trophy for effort, but the music is a forgettable dirge that fails to stir the soul. The direction? A relic of a bygone era, so outdated it might as well have been shot on a flip phone.
In short, Sikandar is a cinematic misadventure not worth the popcorn you'd choke on while trying to endure it. Save your time, your money, and your sanity-skip this one.

Let me start this review by saying that I didn't have high hopes for this movie but i was hoping to have a good time. I was expecting a fun masala movie which was enjoyable from start to finish. But the movie makers had another plan. It was a huge letdown and disappointed a lot of people in the cinema hall who had the same expectation of this movie. The story doesnt make any sense and a lot of the movie seems forced and void of any logic.
The movie seems unnecessarily preachy and the dialogues seem monotonous and they dont have the impact or the intended energy required in big movies. Rashmika and Kajal try hard to save this disaster but their efforts go in vain due to sloppy story telling. The music is another factor in bringing down the movie. Overall, it reminds you of a phrase - blink and a miss.

To be honest, I had very little expectations from this latest flick of SK owing to the fact that the trailer was not satisfactory.
The movie started really well. The entry scene of SK and the beginning fight sequences are entertaining and has mass appeal. However, after 30 min the screenplay falters and the story has no novelty. Throughout the 2h40min duration the film never picks up. The direction is not impressive plus the songs are also not chartbuster. This movie has a storyline which is already done to death in Bollywood but as a matter of fact even if the story is not gripping the direction should be extra-ordinary. I don't want to say this I liked SKs movies in the past like TERE NAAM, Bajrangi bhaijaan, Wanted and he acted really well in these movies but in this movie he is little laidback and seemed least interested and his dialogue delivery is terrible. His voice is monotonous in every scene. I'm not sure if it was a dubbing problem or what? But having said that if he would have performed better, this movie would have been watchable atleast. His acting is not up to the mark. I'm comparing this one to SRKs Jawaan. Even though Jawaan had an ordinary story but still because of SRKs performance in dual role took movie to the next level. Here SK was not convincing. Even though this role is made for him. He didn't performed well enough except some emotional scenes and action scenes. Rashmika is miscasted here definitely. This movie never picks up it's very slow, even Tiger 3 was better than this one.
Please save your money and watch it on OTT.
