Action Jackson Hindi Movie Reviews

Ratings:1/5 Review By: Rajeev Masand Site:CNN IBN

It takes a special kind of talent to make a film as awful as Action Jackson. This film is really an orgy of bloody fight scenes punctuated by too many tuneless songs, and some juvenile gags that might amuse a six-year-old. I'm going with a generous one out of five for Prabhudheva's Action Jackson. It's as much fun as getting your privates stuck in your zipper.

On the whole, Action Jackson is for the masses more than the classes. It will prove to be an average fare at the box-office in only some circuits as it will score in single-screen cinemas and with the masses more than in the multiplexes and with the gentry audience. But in the rest of the circuits, reaching the average mark will be an uphill task.

Ratings:2.5/5 Review By: Meena Iyer Site:Times Of India (TOI)

A Don’s sister falls for his most trusted lieutenant. When he refuses to reciprocate, she vows to destroy him. Her lust and his scorn form the crux of this puerile potboiler. If you're not looking for a mentally stimulating fare, enjoy this ride that is basically meant for the filmi keedas.

Action Jackson might actually spoil the 'good mood' you are in. Action Jackson uses everything in excess - action, romance, comedy, the odd background score and stuff we were used to watching in the 90's! Endure this only if you are a true blue Ajay Devgn fan, otherwise revisit Rowdy Rathore, Prabu Deva's better version of Action Jackson.

 From the first scene to the last, Action Jackson is cringe-inducing film that revels in scraping the bottom of the barrel.Action Jackson, a surefire Golden Kela contender, could give Humshakals a run for its money. Give it a miss.

Ratings:3/5 Review By: Raja Sen Site: Rediff

It is an uneven, tacky, cheesy actioner, a film that has much going catastrophically wrong  but it is also -- surprise, surprise -- at times incredibly zany . Action Jackson is a drinking game of a film, one well over the so-bad-it’s-good line, its main merit being that in a sea of superstar-massaging vehicles, it holds some genuine surprises -- and makes sure its hero looks like a jackass. Skip the first half and smuggle in a quart of something bitter, and you’ll be just fine.

Action Jackson has every ingredient his films have -- mindless story, gravity-defying action, cliched dialogues and funny-looking villains. To put it briefly, watch Action Jackson if you are a Prabhudheva or Ajay Devgn fan, because otherwise there isn't a single dialogue you haven't heard and this is one of the films where they say 'Do not take your brains to the theatres'.

Ratings:2/5 Review By: Hungama Network Site:Bollywood Hungama

ACTION JACKSON being a Bollywood film, the look and feel of the film is that of loud South Indian films. While the film drags in the first half endlessly, the second half too barely has anything in it to hold the audience's attention. The film has no script whatsoever and has been put together haphazardly on the editing table glued together which non-sensical graphics and animation. On the whole, ACTION JACKSON is a highly avoidable affair.

This could have been an entertainingly retro comic-book revenge saga, especially because it has a dashing bad girl who has more screen time, and much more neon-lit presence, than everyone else in the flick . But Prabhu Dheva doesn’t have the skill-sets to instill the that knowing edge into his material; he shows no awareness, in fact, that it is risible.
