Singham works in bits and pieces, only when Devgn gets fully into his stride, squaring up to Raj as he hits the high notes.

Singham has its moments, but it is overall a ham, a piece of ordinary cinema.

All that's larger than life in Singham is Devgn's muscles

Watch it for its robust potboiler personality. With extra masala as garnish

But for a stray over-the-top scene here or a corny piece of dialogue there, it wears the look of a lean, mean and smartly packaged entertainer
