Critics Review of Gabbar is Back
Let’s read what critics have to say on Gabbar is Back.
1) Taran Adarsh from Bollywood Hungama: GABBAR IS BACK is an average entertainer which will draw huge footfalls over the weekend due to catchy massy title, action drama and the fact that it is releasing on a holiday. Post the weekend, the film will have to rely on ‘PWD’ (Performance on Week Days) to see it sail through. If you are sick and tired of corruption in India, then, you shall find GABBAR IS BACK inspiring, else you may find it boring and preachy.

2) Subhra Shetty Saha from Mid Day: The only saving grace of this film is Akshay Kumar, who not only looks dishy with a beard, but does try giving a convincing performance in this not at all convincing film. But then he should have chosen better.

3) Manjusha Radhakrishnan from Gulf News: While the director and the actor’s hearts are in the right place, it would have served the viewers a lot better if they had paid more attention to the script.Gabbar is Back is strictly for Akshay Kumar fans who can tolerate his chest-thumping jingoism. He’s a rebel with a cause and he makes sure that no one forgets it for a second

4) Abhishek Gupta India TV: Despite everything, the film survives to tell-a-tale that is relevant today. ‘Gabbar Is Back’ knocks the bottom off the action genre with a breathless ode to Swachh Bharat. The film may appear louder-than-life instead of larger-than-life but the tone is unapologetic massy. You can’t change the disintegrating social order by being delicate towards it. Akshay Kumar amazingly, through his bearded, brooding leadership, explains that.

5) Kusumita Das from Deccan Chronicle: Director Krish brings the iconic screen name Gabbar back in theatres along with the immortal dialogues for his hindi film debut. But this Gabbar played by Akshay Kumar has no similarities with Amjad Khan’s character in Sholay. Perhaps there is one! Akshay’s character shows the same desperation to wipe out corruption from the country that Gabbar had when going after Jai and Veeru.
