Review:
Good!. Champion is an interesting action thriller, and it is true to its title, as Sunny Deol is the cop hero in this movie. Overall, the film has enough thrills to keep you at the edge of your seat. Early in the movie, the mini tussles with that kid are kind of fun before Sunny becomes his hero. Sunny's introduction is definitely worth watching. The villain (a killer) is excellent and clever, and he does well at matching wits with Sunny. How Sunny deals with this killer down to the final fight is well done. Only Sunny Deol could fit this cop role and pull it off so well, which is why he is the best. Go for this and enjoy it!. A bad movie with useless action. Champion is a bad movie directed by a first-timer Padam Kumar with lots of sloppy actions and romance.The film revolves round a wealthy boy named Abbas (Abhishek Sharma) whose parents were killed in a plane crash caused by a lunatic, Nazeer (newcomer Rahul Dev). The task of keeping Abbas safe is given to an aspiring cop from Patiala, Rajveer Singh (Sunny Deol, who looks chubby as ever). Rajveer dreams of becoming a well-known cop and receiving lots of medals from the authorities by nabbing all the baddies of the city. But his task is not an easy one since the child refuses to cooperate with him and in comes the chief of the children, Sapna (Manisha Koirala, who also looks chubby as ever). Abbas and Sapna scheme to throw Rajveer out of the house but with little success. It's not until later that Rajveer and the child bond and Abbas agrees to cooperate. How the hero saves the child and kills the villain forms the climax.The plot is simple and is an old wine in a new bottle for most of the Indian audiences. The director put no effort in establishing the plot. He just keeps putting useless action and romance between the hero and the heroine.Talking about the performances, we know Sunny Deol is tailor-made for this role. Because action is his only forte. He looks like he gained a lot of weight and coming to his dancing abilities, he's a complete zero in that department. Manisha Koirala looks fat and the clothes she wears in the dance sequences keep accentuating her heaviness. It's about time for Koirala to pack her bags. Rahul Dev shows promise and he is the only character who's likable throughout this dismal movie. Abhishek Sharma is okay considering he's a kid and is not expected to act anyways. The rest of the cast is routine.Finally, Champion disappoints. But if you have nothing better to do, just watch it once!. Good after most of the first half. After a few more typical action movies, Deol stared in one of his first serial killer movies. But, the movie gets ruined by some of the most retarted kiddish scenes in the first half. The jokes are stupid, and a person with piles getting beaten on his butt is not funny stupid kids. The movie drags with boring kiddish comedy, but takes a turn when a prank played on Deol actually gets him scolded by his senior. But, the second half is terrific. Even the last 20 minutes of the 1st have is good. When Rahul fails to attack the child, he gets so angry and his portrayal of a mental villain is good but Ashutosh Rana was more horrific in Sangharsh. The movie keeps you thrilled and the action sequences are realistic and well made. There is no MITHUN FLYING ACTION LOL. Though, Deol still shouts at parts, he has improved his acting skills and has matured. Manisha Koirala is average, her comic timing is bad. Abhishek Sharma is the scene stealer as the frightened child. Overall, a decent movie but most of the first half is nonsense.. An average Bollywood action movie. Sunny Deol plays Rajveer a police officer who has been given the task of protecting a young boy named Abbas from a killer called Naseer who has already killed Abbas's parents and has only one target left.I found this film to be thrilling at times but the action sequences were a little corny but its an action movie. I've seen better Bollywood action movies but this film does incorporate an interesting side, the villains back story, his motivation to kill and the training he puts himself through.Manisha Koirala however was a little annoying there was no need for her character but I guess Bollywood needs to throw in a love interest....Its one of the unwritten rules.
