I don't want to waste too much time writing this review so I'll keep it short and sweet - It's all guns and no brains! The film has a story line, but a weak one and relies on guns in practically every scene! Even Sonakhsi is holding one!!Saif Ali Khan needs to do something different. He is a good actor and can do far better than these roles. Jimmy Shergill is a very underrated actor but does a fine job throughout his role. His friendship with Saif in the film is certainly the highlight of the film. Sonakshi is boring and her role is a typical Sonakshi role. She needs to challenge herself with more roles like Lootera!Supporting cast like Sharat Saxena, Vidyut Jamwal and Gulshan Grover are all decent. The music of the film is OK at best with only Saamne Hai Savera really worth listening to. Overall a below average film which you should certainly not watch twice, but consider whether it's worth even watching once!

The movie was beautifully written and it contains everything you can expect from a Bollywood gangster movie (especially gangsters in Uttar Pradesh). Gangs in north India are exactly like these and the language used is same too. Its a good thing that they did not use much Bollywood Masala and focused on the story. Its a shame people are reviewing this as bad movie and clapping their hands off watching movies like Dabangg. Saif Ali Khan acted brilliantly and Jimmy Shergil too. Sonakshi Sinha did not have much too show on-screen. This was not a one-man movie and every actor had something to do with their roles. And everyone done justice with their role. Overall this is 7/10.

There are many times when offbeat filmmakers try to make commercial films and make mismash.Madhur did it before in AAN Men At Work, Govind Nihalini in Thakshak. Tigmanshu's debut Haasil was promoted as a romantic film but was a political film which got critical acclaim and made Irrfan a famous name. Then it was followed by some bad efforts like Charas, His recent film Shagird too didn't work nor got critical acclaim, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Part 1 and 2 both got critical acclaim and worked well. Bullet Raja marks the first time that Tigmanshu is working with Saif,Sonakshi.When the film was announced I was sure Tigmanshu will make a great film with Saif who proved his talent in offbeat films more like Omkara, Being Cyrus.etc However it seems Tigmanshu has got carried away by the recent south style diktats and made his film to suit the audiences taste. The promo had Saif saying a longdrawn line about Brahmin roota to........... The film again is set in UP where Tigmanshu belongs, it starts off well and keeps your attention till the love angle wobbles in and spoils the part also the mumbai part and Tamanche Pe Disco doesn't blend well. The film gets too predictable and stereotypical and last twist seems like Tigmanshu trying to copy Abbas Mustan style.Direction by Tigmanshu is good in parts but letdown overall Music by Sajid Wajid who are regular in Salman land is out of place, though Saamne Hai Savera is good, rest songs are ordinary The placements also are oddSaif Ali Khan tries hard to get into the character and does his part well as usual but sadly the role isn't that great or memorable. Sonakshi Sinha continues her nautanki she has been doing since debut except in Lootera, she is getting typecast and boring. Jimmy Shergill is superb sadly his role ends up soon but he is simply superb as always in Tigmanshu's films. Vidyut Jamwal has a cameo and is superb, he has choreographed the action scenes involving him himself too and is good Raj Babbar is good, Gulshan Grover has a brief role and is okay, Ravi Kissen is alright, Vipin Sharma who is a regular in such films and roles is good too, Chunky Pandey is okay in a brief role Vishwajeet Pradhan and sharat Saxena are okay too

Tigmanshu Dhulia's 'Bullett Raja' is An Ordinary Fare, that works only till it lasts. Though engaging in parts & superbly acted, this gangster-flick lacks sharp writing. One Expected More!'Bullett Raja' Synopsis: A common man who transforms into a gangster revolts against the very system he once obediently followed by declaring war on the police, the government, and the industrialists.'Bullett Raja' begins nicely & holds its momentum efficiently up-to interval. The second-hour is unconvincing, with most sequences lacking pace or sharpness. Even the twist in the climax isn't smart, but rather predictable. The Screenplay has merit in its first-hour, which is pretty interesting, but the second-hour disheartens. Tigmanshu Dhulia's Direction is passable. Cinematography, Editing & Art Design are adequate. Music by Sajid-Wajid is foot-tapping. Action-Sequences are terrific. Performance-Wise: Saif Ali Khan excels as Raja. He suits the part & stands out with a tough performance. Sonakshi Sinha is nicely restrained in a brief role. Jimmy Shergill is excellent. His on-screen chemistry with Saif is delightful. Vidyut Jamwal is super in a cameo. This dude can do some kick-ass action for real! Gulshan Grover & Ravi Kishan are fabulous. Chunky Pandey is very impressive. Raj Babbar is flawless. Vishwajeet Pradhan is good. Vipin Sharma scores, as well.On the whole, 'Bullett Raja' offers mild entertainment.
