"Sunny is back"...a decent flick in these harsh and hard times!
Singh Saab to me was a very decent Sunny Paaji flick that had all the right elements that a typical Bollywood movie must have and not to forget the superb direction by Anil Sharma as he showed some nice stuff by traveling through flashbacks. Sunny comebacks with Singh Saab in his old "desi superman avatar", he hits, he cries, and tries the right things. You may notice a lot of familiar faces that constitute the supporting cast but Urvashi as Minnie was a charm to watch. There are a lot of good dialogs in the movie and a couple of good songs too. The movie raises the same old issues that India still faces but in a bit different manner. Overall it can be your great family weekend. Enjoy! Rating - 8 on 10.
Not a new concept but direction and Sunny deol both were great
People may think its not a new concept, Sunny is again looking for revenge. But this movies has everything - mas ala, emotions, great acting and dialogue delivery. Some people also comparing this movie with Dabangg and its sequel but its way better than both. This movie has a message, great direction and acting. Movie is original with original work by real actors and director. If Sunny cannot fight with twenty people at a time, then no actor can do that. Sunny brought many awesome movies and never did big campaigns to launch his movies. But now a days who ever can get more publicity on face book or you tube those actors think that they are better than these legends. I must say Sunny is back which we were missing from many years. All the very best team!!
Sunny Deol saves the film from falling into pit
There was a time when Sunny Deol was the reigning action hero as he had charisma and personality to pull off the action-drama roles with ease. After a long gap, he emerges back from the surface and gives you a punchy hardcore masala film.
Singh Saab The Great tells the story of a messiah who believes in "Change" rather than "Revenge" as he suffers a setback after losing his wife in a good verses evil battle.
From the director cult Gadar, Anil Sharma brings back the action- melodrama of 90's into the current scenario. Though the theme of the subject is well-intentioned , it is direction and screenplay which takes a backseat. The first half of the film literally does not have any impactful scenes except for the interaction between Sunny Deol and Prakash Raj. It is the second half which makes the film interesting and whole pictures heaves a sigh of relief. Art direction and cinematography are good. Action scenes are over-rated. Not sure why Hindi films displays people flying in the air with a single punch. Music is terrible. It is Sunny Deol who saves the film from falling into pit. He emotes, punches and delivers exceptionally well. Amrita Rao and Prakash Raj are passable.
If you are big fan of Sunny Deol, you will enjoy it otherwise it is a plain average film. Decent 2.75/5

Too much of romantic flashback impoverished the social subject.
Average movie with Sunny effect.
Story-Commercial social drama.
Dialogues-do not fit for Sunny Deol (expected better for him).
Casting-Good but failed to utilize properly.
Direction-Average
Music-Good
Acting-Individual actors have acted well but Johnny Lever pulling extra lever (as usual) makes movie very loud so much so that movie needs his editing .
Comedy-leave johnny but Sanjay Mishra and other actors are better than lever.
Cinematography-Good
editing-could have been better
The story is simple.The movie deviates from the subject most of the time and emphasizes more on romance,flashback,forced comedy & emotion and nonsense trap.Action sequences are Sunny specific(dhai kilo ke hath me abhi bhi bahut jaan hai).Press reporting by Amrita Rao is too unprofessional.Antagonist is good but only to match Sunny Deol we miss Amrish Puri.The eastern Uttar Pradesh accent seems to be superimposed on various actors.
Overall good movie can be watched once.

Sunny Deol Doing What He Does Best
In recent years we have seen Sunny Deol in films which haven't been suited for his acting. In the last 5 years he has made films like Fox, Right Yaa Wrong, Yamla Pagla Deewana and Yamla Pagla Deewana 2, and in my opinion the only one really worth watching was YPD, but it wasn't a role in which Sunny Deol excels in. In Singh Saab, we see Sunny Deol in a role reminiscent of his 90's roles. It's full of Sunny Deol style roaring and shouting on top of what I call Sunny Deol action (People flying away with one punch, ripping out posts from the ground) which has in recent years been adapted by all the other actors but we now see Sunny Deol showing them how it's done. A return to real action for Sunny Deol.
With a good storyline and great acting this is must see, not just for Sunny Deol fans but also regular cinema goers.
