Fighter Movie Review: A High-Flying Action Spectacle with Familiar Turbulence

Siddharth Anand, best known for his work on blockbusters like War and Pathaan, takes to the skies with Fighter, a high-octane, big-budget aerial action thriller that aims to launch a new franchise. Starring Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor, the film blends intense action, patriotic fervor, and a simmering romance, making it a quintessential Bollywood entertainer. While Fighter soars in its thrilling set pieces and charismatic performances, its reliance on clichés and underwhelming antagonists slightly grounds the overall experience.

Plot Overview

Set against the backdrop of the disputed region of Kashmir, Fighter revolves around a hand-picked team of Indian Air Force aviators tasked with neutralizing a looming threat. Commanding Officer Rakesh "Rocky" Jai Singh (Anil Kapoor) leads this elite squad, which includes the hotheaded yet skilled Shamsher “Patty” Pathania (Hrithik Roshan) and the determined helicopter pilot Minal “Minni” Rathore (Deepika Padukone).

While the team undergoes rigorous training, tensions escalate as terrorist Azhar Akhtar (Rishabh Sawhney) orchestrates attacks to destabilize the region. Politics, personal stakes, and romance intertwine as the aviators prepare for a showdown that puts their skills and lives to the ultimate test.

What Works

1. Star Power and Performances

Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone are the film's undeniable anchors. Roshan embodies the reckless yet endearing "flyboy" archetype, delivering an emotionally charged performance. Padukone shines as the resilient and intelligent Minal, holding her own in action sequences and emotional beats. Their on-screen chemistry is electric, adding depth to their characters' relationship.

Anil Kapoor provides gravitas as the seasoned leader, blending authority with warmth. The supporting cast, including Karan Singh Grover and Akshay Oberoi, add layers to the team dynamic, even if their roles remain somewhat peripheral.

2. Thrilling Action Sequences

The aerial combat scenes are the film's heart, blending practical effects with CGI to deliver visually arresting dogfights. While some sequences stretch believability, the sheer scale and intensity of the action keep audiences riveted.

3. Entertainment Value

From energetic musical numbers to lighthearted camaraderie among the aviators, Fighter never loses its sense of fun. The film balances its romance, drama, and action well, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

What Doesn’t Work

1. Generic Villain and Plot

Rishabh Sawhney’s Azhar Akhtar looks like a menacing antagonist, but his character lacks depth. His motivations and plans are underdeveloped, reducing him to a generic foil rather than a compelling nemesis. The geopolitical backdrop, while intriguing, is glossed over, leaving the narrative feeling shallow.

2. Overindulgence in Bollywood Tropes

While Fighter embraces its escapist nature, it sometimes leans too heavily on slow-motion shots, melodramatic dialogues, and hyper-patriotic montages. These elements, while expected in a masala entertainer, occasionally detract from the film's pacing and impact.

3. Predictable Narrative

The film follows a well-trodden path, with familiar character arcs and predictable twists. While the execution is polished, the story lacks the originality needed to elevate it beyond standard action fare.

Final Thoughts

Fighter is an exhilarating spectacle that thrives on its star-studded cast, dynamic action, and Siddharth Anand’s signature style. While it doesn’t break new ground in terms of storytelling, its mix of high-flying thrills and charismatic performances ensures an entertaining ride. Fans of Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Bollywood’s larger-than-life action dramas will find plenty to enjoy, even if the film occasionally feels derivative.

Rating: 3.5/5 A visually stunning and entertaining action-drama that takes flight but struggles to soar above its formulaic roots.

Hrithik opens up about his film Fighter, calls mixed reviews as the conviction of director Siddhartha Anand

Hrithik Roshan’s latest release Fighter is making great records on the box office. The film is directed by Siddharth Anand in which Hrithik plays the role of Squadron Leader Shamsher Pathania lovingly called Patty. Hrithik is very happy to see his film garner such great response and in a recent interview, talked about the mixed reviews that the film is getting. He also said that he does not mind the criticism as it is his director Siddharth Anand’s “conviction”.

Quoting that as an actor he does not cross lines, Hrithik said, “I would like to believe that my fans and my audience who come to watch my films are a bit more evolved and they would not need lines like these. That is a weight that I bear. As an actor, I do not cross any lines. At the same time, I admire that Sid (Siddharth Anand) is a very, very headstrong filmmaker. It is his conviction. Sometimes you see somebody that convinced and it kind of breaks your heart to power down and say no. I also bear the weight of that because finally, it is my face. But I am very, very happy that it has landed as entertainment and nothing more than that. I am really relieved about that. Having said that, I still bear the weight."

He also opened up about his practice of choosing roles and said, "If your mission is stardom, and your mission is running that business, and you have that shop that people are liking and you keep selling what they like... That's also okay. I don't enjoy that, I feel suffocated. I think it comes down to why you are doing what you are doing. Why are you doing movies? What are you getting out of it? Is it for money? Then, go ahead man. There are no rules. You are earning the bread for yourself and your family. You go out and you sell yourself and do what it takes. I respect that. But once that need is satisfied... did you still want more? It has got to stop. You have to know what kind of life do you want to live and what is the cost of living that life. I always had that desire in me to find depth, because if you are not finding that what are you doing?"

Other than Hrithik, Fighter features Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover, and Akshay Oberoi.
