Critic Reviews for Sarkar Raj

All Critics (7) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (4)

  • The film does deliver some surprises, and that's why it's much better, and tauter, than the first. The intrigue is sharper. So is the acting.

    Shubhra Gupta

    The Indian Express

  • Sixty-five-year-old Amitabh Bachchan, India's vibrant and virile living legend, is riveting in nearly every film he does. But even a true fan's ardor is tested by the tedious political thriller, Sarkar Raj.

    Hollywood Reporter

  • Proves firmly that Bollywood can hold its own technically against its Western counterparts.

    Anil Sinanan

    Times (UK)

  • Sarkar delivers a long monologue at the end of the film that explains what really happened: chiefly that the power plant was just a ruse for a power struggle. Too bad Varma didn't make that film.

  • Ram Gopal Varma's... reworking of The Godfather... delivers the casting coup of Bollywood's royal family %u2013 Amitabh Bachhan, his son, Abhishek, and Abhishek's wife, Aishwarya Rai %u2013 ... [but] the result is overwrought and cliched.

  • This all-star concoction is as muddy as the Ganges and nowhere near as holy. Unless, of course, you're talking plot-holey.

    Adopted by Godfather but the good thing is it's adopted and not remake or copied. Director has done a great job with lighting and camera angles. Everyone acted up to the mark specially Amitabh Bachchan.
