Action packed entertainer and a visual treat for not only srk fans but also all action dimension movie lovers. Storyline, dialogues, cinematography, acting, direction, action scenes, all things fit perfectly to create this amazing entertainer. Music is on point. The sprinkles of comedy and humour combined with the unique charm of srk help to elevate overall experience of the movie. But something feels lacking, some stones are left unturned. The movie is unable to connect and satisfy the viewer like typical srk movies do.
The level of satisfaction while leaving the theatre is low, unlike other srk movies. The structuring and sequencing of the scenes could have been done in a more better manner. Deepika is just a timepass character and fails to impress. John is "OK". Storyline is also pretty straight and simple and lacks real twists and turns to give you that nail biting experience. It almost feels that just because it is srk people are forcing themselves to like the movie. U replace srk with any other star and movie will go down for sure. The director of the movie miserably failed to effectively utilise the asset named srk he had at his disposal.
Also originality is at question as many times the movie feels just compilation of scenes from different movies like War, Welcome, Don series, Happy New year, race 2, character M from James bond, Ek tha tiger etc. The emotions are lacking and only action is visible.
Overall a one time watch average movie with driving factor srk transformaing it into a hit.
