Prabhudheva's 'R... Rajkumar' is Below The Mark! The film, despite boasting superb action, fantastic music & an impressive leading-man, fails to engage, as the Script is predictable & not-so-entertaining, at most parts.
'R... Rajkumar' Synopsis: A thug fights for his lady-love, in the middle of a warfare between two warring gangsters.
'R...Rajkumar' has an ordinary first-hour, but a disappointing second. The action-sequences are superb, but the Script is very predictable. One can foresee the entire film & that acts as a minus point. Also, the excessive violence in the goings-on is off-putting.
Prabhudheva's Direction is loud. Cinematography is fair. Editing is hurried up. The Music is fantastic. Each song is catchy & memorable.
Performance-Wise: Shahid is impressive, yet again. He enacts Rajkumar with admirable conviction. Even when the Script slips, he doesn't. He's an under-rated actor, who needs to do better films! Sonakshi Sinha does a fine job. Sonu Sood is wasted. Asrani is over-the-top. Ditto for Ashish Vidyarthi. Mukul Dev is very sincere. Late Actor Srihari does well.
On the whole, 'R... Rajkumar' is not up-to the mark.
