Good in some parts but overall crappy !!
28 August 2013 | by (Bangalore, India) – See all my reviews

Policegiri is same old story of a good cop vs a corrupt politician . But the change is that he's corrupt and uses it as a tool to clean the bad guys. Till here fine but the treatment of the subject is disappointing. Dabangg is a good example of a movie on a corrupt cop.

Sanjay Dutt is a bit too old for this role. He has a paunch and his scenes with Prachi Desai are too awkward. Desai is old enough to play his daughter's role. Dutt would have been a good choice to play this role a decade back. Prakash Raj is in full form and is excellent in his role as the villain. He spouts some excellent one liners and brings a smile when he is on screen.

The film has too many songs that slow the pace and Dutt's transformation from corrupt cop to an honest one is not shown properly. Equally baffling is Prachi Desai's background story of her marriage. Can't explain.

Policegiri could have been a good entertaining film had the script been a bit better.
