If you want to see acting, watch parallel cinema/art films or films with talented actors, obviously you're looking in the wrong place, this is an action film, the usp being the action and the physical and martial skills which have never been seen before in Bollywood, and I'm glad Tiger has entered Bollywood.

Bollywood's action movies are a laughing stock of the world (after SI films) it's a much neglected genre, and we are constantly bombarded with piss poor, over the top, insanely asinine, pathetic excuses for action films by talentless overweight hacks like Sallu et al... Tiger is only 23, acting can be learned with time, but skills like this require time, dedication and extreme discipline.

I don't understand when people whine about acting, this is an action film, and that's how they're selling it, when I watch action films, I want to be entertained and amazed by the action, acting is secondary, I mean you wouldn't turn up to a bbq joint and expect some prashad, so why expect some great acting performance from this? lol

Don't know if it's his acting or looks, he looks very creepy like those serial killer types one. And, then he makes me laugh too way he says his dialogues.

Acting matters, script matters, even in a huge HW blockbuster movie about superheros. All the Batmen movie were ridiculous before Dark Knight. Just watch them. Iron Man is not just a man in a superhero suit, it is Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark. Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Anthony Hopkins and most especially Tom Hiddleston as Loki are what makes Thor watchable. The special effects and the whole superhero myth while great do not stand a chance without good acting or a good script. If not you have terrible movies like the Fantastic Four.

Even in YA movies not grounded in reality,acting and script matter..That is the difference between a Harry Potter and a Twilight. I apply similar standards as much as I can to BW. So we have to agree to disagree on the importance of acting in fantasy or action movies.

False comparison, Robert Downey Jr, Anthony Hopkins , Natalie Portman etc, these are actors, they're not action stars, very important difference, they're just actors playing characters in superhero movies, whilst stunt doubles and special effects take care of the action, in other words, the audience do not go to watch Robert Downey Jr because he's beating people up, they already know that he's not behind that mask. The writing, presentation, acting, script do matter in these superhero/fantasy films, especially since they're based on very popular comic book heroes and popular works of fiction, so doing justice and pleasing the fans is very important for success.

By action, I was referring to action stars like Jackie Chan, Tony Jaa, Jason Statham, Jet Li etc, people who do real action and real stuntwork, these stars are not popular because of their acting, some do a decent job, but that's not what made them famous, it's their action that's made them famous. The difference here is that the audience watch the films for the stars, you go to watch their movies to see them whoop ass, you don't go expecting some great acting performance, if the script is good and acting is good then great, if not, then passable will do, as long as the action delivers, otherwise you're disappointing your target audience.

Tiger doesn't need to be a great actor, not like any of the newbies are great actors, he can improve with time, and clearly he's not eying for that title, I'm pretty sure action is where he'll be concentrating mostly.

Loved your post but bold part 👏 I wish more people understood that...

As for the poster above acting is required in every movie doesn't matter the genre...I would rather watch Akshay and Salman in a pathetic south remake than awesome action packed movie with an actor like Tiger. The kid's face doesn't even move throughout the trailer, No thank you!

What about po*n movies?, do you expect oscar worthy acting performances and a great script too?

Am I the only one who thinks he's good looking? I showed his picture to my mum and the first thing she said [as well] was 'he's really good looking, you can tell he's Jackie's son'.

On here everyone seems to be going on about how ugly he is 😕


The trailer looks a bit meh. But I hope Tiger does well, he seems nice.

I agree his dialogue delivery needs improving.

He will soon become " Ek Tha Tiger" jo aya aur gayeb hogaya!
