The story, the plot had the potential to serve a good and entertaining film...What ruined it completely was the physics and VFX . The start of the film was amazing it gave you the John Wick vibes ( the fist fight and the shot gun scene) and the train sequence where SRK fights 1 v 8 or something + the research lab scene where they all sacrifice themself for greater good. For anyone who has watched fast and furious films can agree that this film copied almost all the action/stunt sequences. I don't wanna ruin for someone who hasn't watched the film but it gave me cringe when John Abraham with his brute force pulled down the Strong rope that connected the 2 helicopter and attached to the truck. Anyways I expect better from action movies and this film is a success only because of SRK else nothing new in the film.

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.

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.

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.

I went in to see this because of positive RT scores and comments which said this movie reeked of action. The reviewers just left out the part where they were supposed to say the action was unbelievable. It is worth a watch if you have 2.5 hours to kill.

The fight choreography between SRK and 'Jim' (I'm too tired to look up the actor's name) were exceptional. Those featuring Padukone were kind of hit and miss. Sometime they reached Marvel's Black Widow heights, other times they were almost laughable.

Jim was a good villain. His backstory was touching and you could empathize with him and the reasons that he was doing what he was doing. I couldn't root for him because you already know how the story is going to end but you just don't know how they will get there.

Finally, the soundtrack (or background music). It was repetitive when there was a fight between the protagonist and antagonist. So much so that I found it irritating after a while.
