Lakeer Movie Review :
This film review are Mostly Positive from Critics, IMDB Public Reviewing site give 4.4 Star Out Of 10 Star with Reviewers are 885.
Lakeer is okay as a movie. Sunny Deol shines in the first half, but then he is sidelined in the second half only to show up later in the movie before the climax. The way the movie went, Sunny should have just been in full action. Anyways, the story overall is not too bad, as it does have the 2 biggest action heroes in Bollywood: Sunny Deol and Sunil Shetty. The scenes between them are worth watching. Also, Sunny’s avatar is somewhat different from his usual action hero avatar, but he amazes in all areas. I wish that he had more footage in this film. This may not be exactly the best movie, but it is a decent time pass, if you ever do catch it on TV.
Critics Rating by Taran Adarsh , from Bollywood Hungama give 2 star out of 5 Star.
