There is no great heroism in the film, Shankar did a clever thing by not concentrating on Fan value and made the film for everyonewhich I am sure will give greater mileage to the film at the box office

http://keralaarticles.blogspot.com/2007/06/sivaji-review.html

Although the story line is similar to most Tamil movies or rather Rajni movies, where in the protagonist overcomes all the hardships that life throws at him and builds his fortune. and it all ends up going to the benefit of the poor. Shankar has done all that he can to make the script look as unpredictable as possible and his efforts has defenitly yielded resulsts. The climax is easily the best and the most exciting part of the movie.

Sivaji movie presents awesome performance by Rajini. Looking younger by decades as though travelled by a time machine, Superstar looks ravishing and has given out a spell binding performance.

Reviewer's Summary Disappointing

http://movies.indiainfo.com/2007/06/15/sivajireview.html

It can be at best an average film. Rajnikant's Charisma, Shriya's glamour, post-interval scenes, music and stylized scenes can save it.

http://www.fatafat.com/newmovie/Review.html

Vintage Rajni is at his best. Shankars substance adds to the Rajnis style. Thota Tharanis set designs are excellent. K V Anands camera work is superb. Shankars screenplay and story telling is outstanding. Vivek is hilarious. Suman surprises in a villain role. Last but not least Shriya is very glamorous and she justifies her selection to the much coveted Sivajis heroine. It is AVMs magnum opus in their 60th year.

Sivaji : A beautiful spectacle of stars

And, that is Rajnikanth. With his bald head, long coat and mannerisms, he is style personified. In the second half, Rajni the star rises like a phoenix and makes up for the lacklustre performance in the first half. The stars of the first half pale in front this star in the next half.

And you come away from the dark theatre impressed with the spectacle composed by Shankar.

The film is a good entertainer coupled with a powerful message.

It all now depends on Rajnikanth's fans. They are known to watch all his films a number of times. Like Chandramukhi, the film may pick up slowly and go on to become a hit.

Bottom-line

Shivaji on the wholecan be at best an average film. Rajnikant's Charisma, Shriya's glamor, post-interval scenes, great music, excellentpicturisation andabove all techncial gloss and stylized scenes can save it to some extent.

Rajini rocks in Sivaji

At the end of the day Sivaji is a complete masala entertainer. It may be not as gripping as Chandramukhi but the films biggest selling point remains Rajinikanth, Rajinikanth and more Rajinikanth.

Tamil Cinema Movie Review - Sivaji by Rajini: A beautiful spectacle of stars

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Entertainment/Movie_Reviews/Review_Sivaji_The_Boss/articleshow/2142960.cms

With Manish Malhotra giving Rajni his uber cool look and A R Rahman providing turn-of-the-century scores for the extravagant dance numbers, Sivaji is the perfect entertainer with Rajnikant proving he is truly ageless, at least on screen.

Same old fare, but with a punch

Sivaji rocks. Sivaji is cool. Dont miss it.

Sivaji, which, to describe in the trendy and the omnibus description (which Rajni uses ever so often on screen in this film), is cool.

All of Rahman's songs get the right ambient backdrop to look like a piece of inspired dream. Shankar's inspirational visual ideas provide that.K V Anand's camera is first rate all through and covers the screen with amazing feel and richness. The stunts have been captured, making all the action come so close to reality.Peter Heynes fights, though over the top in places, matches the needs of modern films.
