The irony. When I said the same thing about Dunki and Jawan in the past - you were writing essays trying to convince me to watch the movie before providing opinions

Happening even in the Archies thread at recent times..

You kidding? SRK fans itna defend & promote SRK Films ko nahi karte jitna Animal ko kar rahe hain. Even sane RK fans are knew how toxic Animal film is, here SRK fans claiming it to be The Best film

Ye bechare Animal ko use kar rahe the ki Tiger 3 beat ho jaye, now inke tottey(parrot) ude hai coz ye Jawan beat karegi

Arrey Panditji, kabhi Bhaijaan se aage badhkar dekho toh samajh aayega ki ek insaan ek se jyada actor ka bhi fan ho sakte hai .. Bollywood ka bhi fan ho sakta hai .. aur movies ka bhi fan ho sakta hai

Bohot simple sa Funda hai lekin aap bas salman-shahrukh ke toxic fan wars mein phas kar baithe ho.

A movie can become a self indulgence for a director and still stay true to the audience. I kind of get why you think they are mutually exclusive in this case because you have only m read about the bits and pieces of the movie focusing on misogynistic dialogues - they form less than 5% of the second half (even that might be too high).

And I have no idea who this Ranga person is. Can you please share their review - I really want to know what have they written about the movie which you are taking up as gospel truth and basing all your opinions on

CMT, I'm not in the mood to discuss other movies/directors at the moment (although, generally, I love discussing movies and books). I should simply stop to invest myself (thinking and feeling) into two movies where I already wrote everything I wanted to write.

I agree that - contrary to my usual aspiration to not discuss a movie I haven't watched - my feeling of repulse tempted me to elaborate about the reasons of my rejection, the main being the showing-off and the inticing character that the director had in mind.

I like to converse with you, CMT, but I feel I should stop to write about Animal...I've started to repeat myself and to sound like an obsessed one.

Baradwaj Rangan is a professional film critic I find interesting to read/watch (but not taking as "gospel truth") - he is, btw. not 'damning' the movie. I posted his review here:

My hopefully last take about why this movie is such a success:

quoting a line from the BH article:

"In many parts of the country, it’s only the male audience that is coming out in hordes to watch the film."

quoting the last line of Baradwaj Rangan's review:

"I think those of us who like these movies may do so because – at least for three hours – they bring out the animal in us that we keep caged at all other times.."

I'm not so sure about the "keep caged at all other times", though.

Come on Clochette. You can't put up such a provoking (and mostly incorrect) 'last take' and then not expect any contrarian responses

But I will just let it slide. You have made up your mind on what you think the movie is (sadly without watching it). There is no possibility of a constructive discussion here. See you in the other threads 😊

It’s gonna cross KGF 2 hindi soon

Apart from the things you mentioned in your review, you noticed how police does not exist in Vanga's Animal universe? . Hazar murders ho gaye but we never saw a sight of police

Yes, I forgot to mention.

Even when doctors were treating RK, he mocked psychologist about her treatment which is also weird. Kuch toh dhang ka screenplay rakh lo.
