Pathaan

I went to watch the movie after watching movie like drishm2 ,ved .my expectations was i will see a masterclass . Pathaan movie is just a copied version of fast and furious, tiger Zinda Hain,war.plot of film is very common,not new story.. direction is good, some scenes are excellent shooted with abroad shooting.special effect and VFX are ok type.. shahrukh tries to give a good performance but he as action hero doesn't appeal.cameo of srk and Salman Khan was high point of movie.dimple kapadia was good,her performance was strong and powerful.deepika was more glamorous and Less agent,,she could have been used better.john abrahim was awesome,his swag was great his looks hunky, style,panesh,he was more better than srk...in all movie was not bad ,not good..I wouldn't watch movie for second time.my issue is after I left theatre thier was no scene tht I would remember for long time..it's a average movie not epic.. spend upto 300 rs only for ticket not more . Pathan hype is more content is less.

Movie was connected throughout but story line is not that great .

It's like common story line we watch we watch in Hollywood movies .

Didn't feel like that it's a Bollywood movie .

John acting is ok , SRK is amazing as always and music is good .

Deepika is in this movie may be because SRK launched her in her first movie .

All over movie is not that great , one time watch and just wow moment is that SRK is back in theaters and his actions scene are good and his body transformation is mind-blowing.

VFX used in movie is ok .

Overall , not a family movie , it's fan based movie and person who like action and suspension.

First things first, suspend your sense of disbelief before you sit to watch this film. Some super creative liberties have been taken to salvage SRK's flagging career. His fan armies may be making a lot of noise around the movie but as a neutral viewer, I found this movie to be just run of the mill heroism cut from the same cloth as Salman Khan's chest thumping macho cinema as seen in the likes of Ek Tha Tiger or Tiger Zinda Hai. Logic is out. It's just visual appeal, bravado laden dialogues and other such massy elements. The hype and hoopla surrounding the movie betrayed the real deal. The movie is all style and totally lacking substance. Beyond a point, such cinema begins to cause heartache. All said and done, the movie does have its high points such as Salman Khan's Tiger character integrations, Ashutosh Rana's acting and John Abraham's svelte looks. Besides that the VFX is low brow, masculinity overboard and a supremely weak storyline and weak writing. It can be watched once on OTT. Not worth the ticket price.

As a part of the audience, I feel that I just have to write this review, as unfortunate as it may be. I watched Pathaan with my family and there were multiple scenes that were just inappropriate and unnecessary. Other than that, the plot was super unclear and I didn't understand why a virus was brought into it. I thought we would be seeing something new, as there are many films from the past that have this same trope of a deadly virus. The movie was 2 hrs and 30 minutes approximately, quite a long film but I don't understand why everything in the film, every sequence, felt rushed and like it didn't make much sense. I also found the CGI and VFX extremely fake and artificial, which was disappointing. I know that a team and actors worked really hard to make this film as they do others, but I feel that Pathaan just took advantage of the fact that there were stars like SRK, Deepika, John Abraham, and Salman Khan in it. Would you genuinely enjoy the film had it been some other actors? Anyway, I do feel like I had my hopes up too high for this film. I just hope that Bollywood can make good films again soon.

Was waiting for this day for over 2 years. I hoped this would finally be the movie that would blow my mind after such a long streak of hindi movie dissapointments. Excited saw it first day first show and it just added to the streak. If there was no SRK this would be a flop, no question. Relying on his hype to carry this only.

The good: SRK is Back The Train Sequence!

John a great bad guy Deepika was extremely attractive Songs are decent Pathaan character background Hand to hand action choreography

The bad: Story - predictable, plagiarised (...even lion king!) and meanders, very dissapointing.

Poor VFX - 50- 75% action relies on vfx, its almost cartoony Silly Action sequences - the action sequences are just silly rather than thrilling...when its hand to hand, fantastic, but everything else is literally just dumb.

All other characters are forgettable...literal cardboard cutouts.

1 of 4 jokes land - robles, cringe.

Background score weaker to war - being massive fan of war, i knew each beat and when would hit, was perfect background score, this was on and off.

Overall: You could watch if diehard SRK fan, but please do not expect a good story, (If you do go, Train sequence is unmissable) but action is not something you havent seen before, cheaper version of similar stunts taken from iconic action movies.
