'Yudhra' movie review: An underwhelming thriller with good action blocks

New Indian Express  

Excel Entertainment films are known for bringing Western sensibilities to Bollywood. Bring in Shridhar Raghavan, the writer of great action films like Khakee and War, and we should have gotten a well-rounded action entertainer from Excel Entertainment that ably combines solid action set pieces with emotionally resonant moments. A long character set-up for Yudhra, a man who can’t help but get mad, should have led to moments where we feel terrified of his ability to easily lose his cool. Looking at him, his part-father figure Rehman Siddiqui says, “Inko khatron se khelna pasand hai.” However, after some time into the first half, this trait is barely existent—the man in fact seems pretty calculative and well-planned. Why not write scenes that show how much the characters mean to each other rather than just having random lines like “Today is dad’s birthday, I really miss him”?
