Two ‘drawbacks’ of the screenplay are that it has too much of gruesome violence and a liberal amount of sexual jokes, talks and references. While these two may keep a part of the ladies and family audience away, these very two ‘drawbacks’ will be loved by the masses as well as the youth. On the whole, Animal is a surefire super-hit. It will be unstoppable at the box-office on the strength of patronage of the masses and the youth. Ladies and family audience will be divided in their opinion, of course.

Stomach churning violent all of which I could have endured if the drama and emotions had held but about an hour into the film loses his grip on the storytelling and he doesn’t get it back the director seems boted with blood and the sequences which follow become like hastily written connective tissue so that we can just go back to the killing The Killing continues this film runs for 203 minutes and 29 seconds so before stepping into the theater ask yourself what is your Threshold at the end of animal a female character throws up I’m not going to lie I felt the same

In the first half, Vanga is in complete control. We get a quick tour of rural Punjab, which is just an excuse for a dozen burly ‘puttars’ to jump in: more boys, more toys, more risible jokes featuring the male nether regions. A kinetic sequence featuring a gigantic bazooka, and Ranbir Kapoor pumping hundreds of bullets into hundreds of bodies is the kind of gleeful comic-book action which is fun while it lasts. But then comes the endless second half in which everything is thrown at the kitchen sink in the hope something sticks. In the end, there’s nothing to this pointless, vile tale: if I have to, I’d rather watch real animals.

Action, background score and music work well with the mood of the film. What works the most however is Ranbir Kapoor’s raw sex appeal and unmatched intensity. He lends that dangerously unpredictable quality to this deranged character and aces it especially in that Vaastav like crucial climax scene. Sadly, the story does little for him though. Ranbir Kapoor can be Joaquin Phoenix but Animal’s no Joker. This entire film could have just been a conversation between the father and his son.

The production value of the film is quite high, the actors do what is required of them, the background score is decent. Everything is almost in place, except for the main requirement of a film — its story.

First, Ranbir Kapoor’s nakedness knows no bounds. He strips himself bare as an artist body and soul. Second, Animal’s violence isn’t for the fainthearted unless you have an appetite for Korean style mayhem, like yours truly.

Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh helmer Sandeep Reddy Vanga had said that he will teach Bollywood how to make a violent movie with Animal and trust me what he said, he delivered that without an ounce of doubt.On the whole, Animal is an adrenaline experience which will have polarising views but you can’t deny its entertaining quotient, breathtaking performances and storytelling.

Watch Animal for Ranbir Kapoor. He doesn’t let you down in even one frame. If you are a hard-core action movie fan, Animal has enough and more to keep you hooked to the screen. The story is engaging and though, long, the performances and the novelty in Ranbir and Bobby’s characters make it worthwhile.

There are moments where it gives you Kabir Singh vibes, the climax might make you recall Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham too, but still there is an originality in Animal. The performances only make this film stronger. Anil and Rashmika, pass with distinction, Ranbir is the topper of this Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial. But I also have a few complaints, though the movie is A-rated, the toxic masculinity was kind of not okay in places. Sandeep has dealt with this red-flag behavior tastefully, but also quite boldly.

This is Sandeep Reddy Vanga going into the egomaniacal mode to make a movie that would take toxic masculinity to the other extreme end of Kabir Singh/Arjun Reddy. All this while, he wasn’t making a film. He was making a statement that he wants the world to read and decide if they wish to side with him.
Ratings:4.5/5 Review By - Bollywood Hungama
On the whole, ANIMAL is a powerful film that rests on Ranbir Kapoor’s outstanding performance, clap-worthy massy scenes, and an interval block that is simply out of the world. At the box office, the tremendous hype and curiosity will lead to a fantabulous opening, and it will emerge as a Blockbuster at the ticket windows.
