š½ļøRAW. UNAPOLOGETIC. GRIPPING šļø
š½ļøRuntime is worth it. Sandeep Reddy Vanga has told the oldest story known to mankind with modern weapons. šļø
š½ļøAbsolutely fabulous acting by Ranbir Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, and Bobby Deol. šļø#RanbirKapoorā¦ pic.twitter.com/ZNI0oMhmcB
Balbir Singh, doesn’t like the raw approach of his son and hence the difference in opinions. Ranvijay is out of control and doesn’t think about the outcome his actions. He understands that his father has made an empire that is beyond the hold of law. He soon garners support from his company men and his extended family too. In the pursuit of vengeance, he starts ignoring his wife and kids too.
Bobby Deol gets very less screen time but makes his mark. His character is even wilder that Ranbir’s character. [Spoiler] He can’t speak and Ranbir can’t hear in that big bull fight.
The trailer was long but did not give away anything from the storyline. If you have watched it, you would know. The story is slow paced yet gripping. How Ranvijay (Ranbir) comes out victorious of this war and how his actions set in motion, the rise of another big bad wolf, kept in dark for the second part may be.
Director, Writer & Editor of Animal, Sandeep Reddy Vanga, tells a story of generational wrongs accumulating to become a full blown war. There is nothing to like in a war but the history is made through wars only. Its an Alpha Male trying to safeguard is family and build an empire on his own terms.
Caution: The movie is long and requires 4 hours to sit in the theatre. The movie unapologetic, so feminists and politically correct brigade might not like it.
Further the movie is strictly for adult audience and has moments that can be considered problematic.
Watch it with caution.
Not for Kids.
