On the whole, JAWAN is a mass entertainer at its best with superlative performances, thrilling and clapworthy moments and larger-than-life action sequences.

Review by: Baradwaj Rangan - Galata
As always with these "mass" films, some of us will come away with this feeling: all those crores, and they couldn't buy themselves a decent script. The overstuffed screenplay wants to tackle so many issues that it has no focus. It works as a series of occasional highlights.

SRK makes this trip worthwhile. Be it Khan highlighting the issues with a rigged system, or schooling accountability from the government, or stressing the power of the vote, or that baap/beta line -- this is a kind of swashbuckling that Hindi film audiences haven't seen from their heroes for many years.

Review by: Shubhra Gupta - The Indian Express
After a kinetic and zingy first hour, Shah Rukh Khan's film slumps in bits, especially when it dives into the part housed in a women’s prison. But as a whole, the movie is a an unabashed massy entertainer with strong political messaging, making it a film which is very much of the moment.

Directed by Atlee, this action thriller is one of the most enjoyable, pulpy, ditzy and progressive entertainers in recent memory. Shah Rukh Khan dazzles in it.

Review by: Pratikshya Mishra - The Quint
Jawan is a vehicle for an action superstar and Shah Rukh and Nayanthara both carry that tag well. With a tighter script and more effective dialogues, Atlee's venture could've been a film for the ages. Alas.

Review by: Venkat Arikatla - GreatAndhra.com
'Jawan' is a typical action masala movie that draws inspiration from various South Indian films. However, Shah Rukh Khan's charisma, compelling performance, and the film's grand presentation with a fast-paced screenplay make it worth a watch, despite its familiar elements.

Review by: Shilajit Mitra - The Hindu
Tamil director Atlee has been teasing a film with Khan since 2019. It’s not the first time an accomplished southern director has joined forces with a major Bollywood star for an action film with charged sociopolitical themes (Atlee’s mentor, Shankar, likely showed the way). Yet, there might be more to this collaboration than meets the eye.

Review by: Aswin Bharadwaj - Lensman Reviews
Atlee’s bloated Lion King struggles to hold together. Unlike Atlee's other films, Jawan is one movie struggling to lift the graph after the initial surge of mass euphoria.

Review by: Renuka Vyavahare - The Times of India
No one seems to be having more fun than Shah Rukh Khan, in his action hero era. The romantic Raj and Rahuls have finally released SRK from their magnetic spell so he can wholeheartedly embrace the smouldering Pathaan and Jawan.

Review by: Saibal Chatterjee - NDTV
Strikingly meta vehicle taps the magnetism of Shah Rukh Khan. In the final act, SRK and Vijay Sethupathi (who is as brilliant as ever) square off in a scene that caps a magnificent crowd-pleaser that blends some sharp writing and a high level of technical finesse.

Review by: Nandini Ramnath - Gulte
A movie with a male savior is often cringe-worthy. However, Khan’s screen image – expansive, suffused with love, heroic in an old-fashioned way without being aggressively macho, irreverent but also sincere – helps sell a conceit that might have crashed with any other actor.

Review by: Mike McCahill - The Guardian
Shah Rukh Khan vehicle goes like a runaway train. With flair, Khan plays a godly badass, dandyish army vet and a sweetheart with a prospective stepdaughter in an undisciplined showcase of his talents
