Review of Fighter X: Siddharth Anand’s film, which starred Anil Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, and Hrithik Roshan, debuted on theaters on Thursday ahead of Republic Day. The movie, in which the main actors portray IAF personnel, has drawn positive reviews from both critics and fans. Here are eight fan reactions that are a good representation of the movie.
‘Unreal charisma‘
A fan wrote on X, “I am feeling emotional man. @iHrithik what are you? a phenomenon. Unreal charisma. I can’t express it in words. His screen presence, his expression. Patty ne fad diya hai.” They continued, “DP, AK everyone has done their best. Thanku @justSidAnand for this emotional ride. #Fighter is a winner.”
‘Iconic entry by Hrithik’
Someone wrote by posting a clip, “This is what I was waiting for #HrithikRoshan’s iconic entry from #Fighter. #FighterMovie #FighterFirstDayFirstShow #DeepikaPadukone #KaranSinghGrover #AkshayOberoi #SiddhartAnand.”
‘Brilliance and Hollywood’
A fan wrote, “#Fighter watching fighter first day first show. Hrithik Roshan and Siddharth Anand again did brilliant….. Hollywood level ki movie.”
‘Awesome visuals & gripping aerial combat scenes’
“#FighterReview ratings. Awesome visuals & gripping aerial combat scenes with seeti marr dialogues,” they wrote, adding, “@hrithikroshan is a show stealer. @deepikapadukone flawlessly gets in the character. The jodi is an icing on cake for #Fighter. @anilskapoor delivers a stellar performance.”
‘Dissapointing’
However, not everyone was praising the movie; one movie enthusiast gave it a one-star rating and advised viewers to save their money. They wrote, “#OneWordReview. #Fighter: Disappointing. Rating: one and a half. Had huge expectations from this re-collaboration [#Hrithik & Dir. #SiddharthAnand] post #WAR. Huge disappointment, save your money.”
‘Only thing negative is Deepika’
Another wrote, “After watching Fighter, I am Sure Deepika Padukone can never carry solo movie like Alia and Bidhya. Only thing negative about Fighter is Deepika Padukone. But Hritik and Anil sir gave their best also Siddhartha Anand. #FighterReview.”
‘Film lacks originality‘
A user wrote, “#FighterReview (two and a half stars). One word : average. This aerial adventure action film directed by Siddharth Anand is not very impressive. Though lead cast has done good job. @iHrithik & @deepikapadukone display their emotions well. Anil kapoor deserves special mention for his nuanced performance.”
The user further wrote, “The film still lacks originality. Though there are few good aerial sequences & emotional moments. But dialogues are ordinary & unimpressive. The movie may not be able to pull crowds to film theatres. Avoid it if you have watched Top Gun.”
