Pathaan

I have watched Srk since Badshah days and I have to say, his luck has run out in terms of picking the right project.

Tigmanshu Dhulia once said in an interview that SRK is oscar material if someone can extract the craft from him. Sadly Siddharth Anand is not the guy. All new-age upcoming directors should watch this movie only to learn how to not make one.

I can't think of any positives other than the fact that the project offered employment to the technicians of various departments.

PS: You'll enjoy this movie if you have liked the previous Indian Masala 'RAW AGENT' Twerking on a dance number in the middle of a covert op garbage but even then Pathaan is not better than Siddharth Anand's previous attempts at filmmaking.

If like me, you enjoyed the Bourne series, Skyfall, Ghost Protocol, Zero Dark Thirty, Sicario or even some decent Indian projects like Baby, Naam Shabana and Airlift then stay away from this. It's Brain cancer.

The starting of the movie is a bit okay when Shah Rukh Khan enters, it feels a bit good at that time💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥. Then later storing gets boring. Same boring old story. Those who have even a little knowledge about the movie can easily tell that there is no story in the movie. Shahrukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, everyone's acting is good. In this the actor cannot be blamed who has written the story. He has written a completely nonsense story. Those poor people cannot do anything in that.😂😂😂. I had booked a VIP seat for this movie to watch comfortably. It would be such a great movie. But I felt ok ok, nothing special. Friend, if I tell the truth, from my heart.

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.

SRK was once a favourite of mine. I only watched this movie because of him. I was disgusted with the filmmakers and script writers after viewing it. The movie occasionally deviates from logic, as evidenced by one scene where the heroes were seen running at the speed of a train! It is difficult to get crowds to the theatre with these scripts and directions!

Please halt the visual effects. It appears really manufactured. Why would you need VFX with seasoned actors like SRK and Salman Khan?

Bollywod needs to give good narratives and direction some serious thought. Sad to watch Bollywood struggling to survive when Tollywood is suddenly earning recognition on a global scale.

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.
