Pilotos de Combate

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 .

First half has superb dog fight sequences but whose effects are marred by unnecessary songs, irritating characters and a villain who evokes laughter with his Tere Naam look. Hrithik is part time fighter pilot and part time planner of Balakot strikes, who has RAW level info, which he just divulges in front of top officers, probably for great appraisals.

If you have seen Animal and felt that its second half was pointless, this second half is set to lower the bar even further. There is unnecessary drama and futile attempts at reviving nationalist sentiments.

We were among the 12 persons in the matinee show here, at Gurgaon. I remember watching Pathaan by the same director, in a matinee show 10 days after its release and the hall was buzzing.

This will stream on Netflix by Feb end. Should be seen in the safety of your room, where it can be fast-forwarded at will.

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 .

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.

Till interval it resonated as if it's a story based on pulwama attack. However, after interval movie went in different direction and lost the control. Few things I don't understand -

1. Why love story and all? Was it required? Unwanted bollywood masala.

2. When pakistan fully imposed no fly zone and you guys shown that india used passenger plane as proxy to enter enemy airspace, what about the chopper's? How did they enter no fly zone without proxy? Such a big blunder in script.

3. Even after air strike twice the terrorist doesn't die... Come on, be practical. Is that possible.. You have shown terrorists are more powerful and trained that Indian Army.

4. Anil Kapoor, who was best pilot whole movie was sitting back and screaming at last..

Such a bad script.. Waste direction.

Bollywood is waste... I had high hopes..
