A Gentleman
Critic reviews and ratings
-
For the most part, the directors keep you engaged.
-
The tone of the film keeps shifting between funny, serious, confusion and finally, almost like a Guy Ritchie film, ties up in the last few moments, with aplomb.
-
This outlandish action comedy draws its kicks from slick action and quirky dialogue.
-
...is definitely an entertaining film which has its own set of loopholes but they can be easily overlooked.
-
...this offering which packs in comedy, action and everything else, yet doesn't entirely fit into the 'masala' construct. Managing this is a feat in itself.
-
...Raj and DK have managed to narrate the plain and full-of-cliches story in their own quirky style and their dialogues and the screenplay make it fun to watch.
-
...surprises audience with the developments in the first half but the film goes downhill in the second half completely.
-
...makes for an entertaining watch. If a not-too-serious, masala film is your ideal weekend watch, then this film does not disappoint.
-
...the film's main problem is in its predictability.
-
...despite the clunky plotting, A Gentleman never becomes a crashing bore. Credit must go to Sidharth Malhotra, who is in almost every frame.
-
Comedy, action, romance – An above average entertainer in each of those elements. But, put together it becomes just about average.
-
...is unable to overcome its derivative cool and come up with new ways of reimagining the action comedy.
-
...is a pileup of little ideas gone haywire. They could have done with more breathing room.
-
...we also wish that there was some more comic-book energy in the plot, which keeps sliding and slowing. That’s the only way spoofs can remain spiffy, and worthy of our complete attention.
-
It wants to be a plush action drama, but evidently lacks resources, so settles at being a haphazardly shot ambitious film.
-
By the truly dismal standards of Indian action comedies, A Gentleman is a middling offender—but what does that even mean?
-
I miss the Raj & DK of Go, Goa, Gone, and their films where gags come flying your way fast and quick. There was a threadbare plot in that one too, but at least it was clever. This is just a snoozefest, all the way.
-
...is a stylishly packed action drama which is attractive but not enough to make you fall in love.
-
...is an assumed piece of filmmaking, where the small-concerns-interrupting-big-moments kind of humour doesn't quite fit the slapdash setting.
-
It’s a harebrained set-up and over the next 132 minutes, the makers manage to offend everyone from gays, to African-Americans, to fat people, and just about anyone with a modicum of taste and common sense.
-
Good directors are allowed to make bad movies, but with Happy Ending and, now, A Gentleman, Raj and DK have ventured into a peculiar place: they’re making bland movies. There’s no personality, only empty professionalism.
