    Summary

    Reviewers say 'Fighter' offers thrilling action, impressive aerial scenes, and strong performances by Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor. The film's technical aspects, including VFX and cinematography, are praised. However, criticisms include a predictable plot, lack of emotional depth, and a weak antagonist. Some find it overly patriotic with cringe-worthy dialogues and unnecessary subplots. Pacing and editing issues are noted, though some appreciate its entertainment value and portrayal of the Indian Air Force.

    Bad direction, plot and acting is a combo I wasn't expecting

    The movie disappoints on multiple fronts, starting with unnecessary romance shoehorned into the narrative, distracting from the supposed focus on the fighter pilot storyline. The bad acting further exacerbates the film's shortcomings, with performances that fail to convey the intensity and authenticity expected from such a genre.

    Plot holes abound, creating a disjointed viewing experience that leaves the audience questioning the coherence of the storyline. The movie leans heavily on clichés, offering nothing fresh or original, making it feel like a recycled and uninspired attempt within the Indo-Pak war genre.

    Pilots consistently disobeying their commanding officer throughout the film not only strains believability but also undermines the credibility of the characters. Lastly, some of the film's scenes blatantly resemble to Top Gun comes across as a cheap imitation, ultimately leaving viewers longing for the authenticity and originality found in the iconic predecessor.

    Copied Scenes, same old story

    I rated this movie 5 out of 10 because

    Scenes copied from the movie Top Gun Maverick .

    First half is good & intresting but second half is so boring & irritating .

    Some scenes are good and interesting .

    But

    Unnecessary & irritating songs .

    Unnecessary showing Hrithik Roshan's body .

    Deepika Padukone role has no major contribution, it doesn't have the vibes. Same old type script for her.

    Same Old Story .

    Repeated stories in Bollywood movies .

    Unnecessary Drama .

    Boring movie .

    Waste of Time .

    Unnecessary and over emotional about nation .

    Terrorist are more powerful than Army it's a joke 🤣

    Bad story line .

    Okay okay movie .

    Ridiculously average

    I am surprised a crew as stellar as this would come together for something as average as this. It contains so, so many cliché plots, over dramatization that really does not fit the narration directions. I watch every Hrithik movie because he is a fantastic actor. This was pretty average barring some great action scenes in the better half of the movie.

    *May contain mild spoilers below*

    The plot's centric towards an over abused topic in the industry unfortunately and relies solely on action scenes and the fitting of multiple repeated storylines to fit into one narration. It is hopefully fairly easy for everyone to guess what happens next in pretty much every scene.

    It's like you've heard these 20 songs for a long time and someone released a new song with rhythms borrowed from all of them together to fit into one song with a normal average length. Is the problem that it borrows ideas from multiple narrations or is it the fact that each one of those narrations itself is mainstream meaning it would be borrowed already?

    Started good but took a nose dive at the end

    May be if the movie came 5 years ago might be really good. But after watching uri and other really good armed forces movie , man this movie just average . Acting was good and photography was good to but not that much on story .little sloppy on screenplay . Except for the first song rest of them were really misplaced . Even if they removed the songs wouldn't bad. Hrithik was good and did hold up his own , but might not be right role for him. Rest of cast did good and were apt . Villan was good looking but man had a single line dialogue. Should have more . One time watch that too if you hardcore fan of Hrithik .

    Disappointing writing & dialogues

    To start with some positives:

    1. VFX from Bollywood's standards is top class

    2. BGM goes well with the movie

    3. HRX, Deepika & Anil acted well with the limited scope offered by their roles and writing

    4. The fight sequence between the 2 fighter jets close to the end was really the time I actually was enjoying the movie. Well shot & choreographed

    5. HRX body on full display as a service to his fans

    6. Deepika looked amazing

    Negatives:

    Be hold, there are many.

    1. The patriotism felt out of place and forced a number of times

    2. Dialogues are ridiculous & cringeworthy.

    3. Script & writing leaves the movie pretty shallow, lacks intensity and first half felt boring

    4. Not sure why all villains have to be stereotyped and shown with scars, surma even the Pak pilot had similar characteristics.

    5. The Director went over board with the slow mo stunts which felt over used and over done & forcefully placed at times.

    6. The antagonist was the weakest link throughout the movie. Extremely underwhelming. Lacked screen presence and the director felt the only way to make him dreadful was by giving him conjunctivitis (one red eye) with scars. But the silky mulayam long hairs didn't help that cause and neither did the dialogues. Very shallow character.

    7. A number of elements are of course taken right out of the Mavericks movie.

    After watching the trailer, I went into the movie hall with low expectations but even after that the movie felt quite underwhelming.
