An Action Hero What’s your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 Facebook Twitter Email A Decent Face-Off With Too Much Heroism & Grand Theories. Anirudh Iyer‘s directorial debut, An Action Hero, sees Ayushmann Khurrana in the action zone for the first time and Jaideep Ahlawat in his regular flow. What Maneesh Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan‘s Fan (2016) and Prithviraj Sukumaran and Suraj Venjaramoodu‘s Driving Licence (2019) missed, An Action Hero got it right — a concrete theory to set up a clash between a star and a local man (here he is a big politician though). However, it goes over the top in the second half to make you believe that at the end it’s just a Bollywood film, so the hero has to win. It does go wrong there, and some larger-than-life theories spoil it a little. An unexpected dose of comedy with organic humour is pleasant, whereas unnecessary heroism and grand theories halt it on an average level.
