PATHAAN MOVIE REVIEW

Genre :

  • Action, Adventure, Thriller

Performances:

  • Pathan is all about how the sharp-witted SRK comes out of exile and takes on the uber cool and shrewd John Abraham, with the help of charming and brainy Deepika Padukone.
  • The movie is about , An Indian agent races against a doomsday clock as a ruthless mercenary, with a bitter vendetta, mounts an apocalyptic attack against the country.
  • Director Siddharth Anand gives an over-the-top treatment to his spy thriller
  • Literally every character has something to do and the cast is nearly perfect
  • SRK is back with a bang and has made his fans delighted, a long wait proven worthy
  • John Abraham looks solid in his negative role and Deepika looks stunning, and she has also done some actions in the film along with flourishing her beauty.
  • Literally every character has something to do and the cast is nearly perfect.
  • And Dimple Kapadia's performance is just heart warming.

Technical values:

  • SRK is truly back with a bang - glimpses of action and emotion are sure to cater to his fans who were waiting for a comeback
  • The movie is shot with IMAX Cameras for the first time and has a whooping budget of INR 250 CR and directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Aditya Chopra, and Alexander Dostal and has two songs including the controversial ‘Besharam Rang’ composed by Music director Vishal Dadlani , Shekhar Ravjiani , Sanchit Balhara , Vishal – Shekhar.

  • The plot follows India’s revocation of article 370 (special status of Jammu and Kashmir) and its impact on a Pakistani officer, who wants India to pay for this ‘mistake’.
  • Salman's cameo is entertaining
  • A compelling plot, action, thrills, and suspense are all present in the movie.
  • The spy thriller offers far more than what we have seen in the teaser and broadens the spy universe created by YRF
  • The actions are top-notch and unquestionably up to Hollywood standards.
  • The movie is healthy entertainment since it features action, patriotism, mild humour, a memorable Salman Khan cameo, and most all, Shahrukh Khan's star power.
  • There were multiple glitches in VFX, Action Blocks and screenplay, that pulled the movie back. But #Pathaan delivers the much needed BIG TICKET ENTERTAINER we want.
  • Characters are well-written, and conversation is appropriate
  • The fast-paced screenplay makes sure that there are never any dull moments,
  • All the fight sequences and chases are indeed marvelously picturized plus they are very captivating.
  • Every scene has excellent music complementing the scene.
  • The film features Patriotism, Humour , Betrayals , Languages, Colour, actions and a decent amount of Bollywood Sweethearts.
  • The film actually has a gripping storyline with the right balance of emotion and action, and that our ageless superstar pulls it off with elan !
  • Action overrides emotions for major part of the film and that’s new territory for SRK
  • The biggest surprise of it all is that the film has only 2 songs in the movie
  • The movie is claimed to be fast-paced and gripping but its predictable storyline and an ISI agent played by Deepika Padukone double crossing India’s agent looks obvious.
  • You won't get bored for a second. No useless scenes are there in the movie and there’ll be turns and wow moments to keep your interest till the end. Story is simple yet not totally predictable. You might take a shot of what's gonna happen but how things unfold is a delight to see.
  • Pathan has lots of cinematic appeals, style and exotic locations to show. Action sequences are unreal and look supernatural, and actors are equipped with superpowers to perform daredevil stunts.

To Summarise:

  • It's a "Blockbuster," a stylish, polished, and action-packed movie all in one.

Highlights:

  • Exciting story.
  • Top notch actions.
  • visual effects.
  • Background score.

Drawback:

  • storyline is not that great .

Overall:

  • Stylish , slick and action - packed film

My rating:4/5
