Man seeing Tiger getting these great reviews along with his master Hrithik is helluva feeing. Tiger finally figuring this acting thing out is gonna give a shit load of people some rough time going forward.🤫

I am not gonna turn this into a Hrithik vs Tiger debate but Baaghi 2 never opened on a national holiday, partial holiday of Good Friday. Tiger’s trashed and mocked soty2 with newcomers opened at 13 crores clashed with IPL semi finals on ramadan. Content failed. Not opening. Tiger is the rare hero in his gen to deliver 3 double digit openings in his first 6 movies. Context matters. Hrithik is my guy before Tiger and he is still the OG but we gotta be naive to think Tiger didn’t contribute at least 35-40% of any opening here. Dude’s mass, single screen and launde lapde fanbase is deemed by all the big trade analysts to be in the top 3. YRF promoted this movie as HrithikVsTiger not Hrithik featuring Tiger. So noooo it’s not be all, end all with Hrithik here. With that said, let’s not get into tribalism and enjoy the product shall we lol?!

I am going by BOI and no it din't open at 13 and was still less than Super30....Tiger was coming off a huge blockbuster like Baaghi2 and Hrithik after a dry spell before Super30...Tiger has tremendous box office pull in mass centres but his plexes's goodwill is very questionable...to get the kind of numbers WAR is clocking right now ...one needs the plexes to fire too...and masses + classes is all Hrithik ....

And i have no intention to make it a rivalry thread but the truth stands that whatever be the outcome ...it will be put on Hrithik....

Fine BOI has it as 11.21 crore. Point remains the same. Trashed by everyone and anyone from word go opened to double digits due to Tiger. Nobody is saying Hrithik is NOT the Batman here but to discredit Tiger’s bit of contribution is just ludicrous to me.

But yeah let’s agree to disagree and enjoy this content meets hype product Sid Anand apparently just delivered. 🙏😊

Critic's Rating: 3/5

Story: India’s super-soldier Kabir (Hrithik Roshan) goes rogue after killing his handler on an assassination mission. Kabir's protégé Khalid (Tiger Shroff) is tasked with tracking his mentor down and bringing him to justice.Review: Two stars and firm favourites of the action genre, Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, lock horns in War. It’s a juicy proposition for fanboys and girls of both actors. A sort of millennial throwback to the 90s showdown between Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff in Subhash Ghai's Khalnayak. But apart from this talking-point premise, War, serves up a lot more for the action-movie buffs.

It has lots of stunts, thrills, twists and just enough masala and explosions to keep you engaged in the first half, but once the big reveals happen in the second half of the story, it goes awry. Where the film excels in action set pieces, it genuinely falls short on the story front. But the story is in all fairness, secondary to the idea of watching two handsome hunks squaring off in a duel of high-octane stunts. It’s like the two heroes, Hrithik and Tiger, known for their bulging muscles and crisp six-pack abs are out to beat each other in a competition of pure brawn. Kabir and Khalid, punch, kick and pound each other to a pulp, and watching the two actors put on a show of their chiselled good looks is a sight for the fans. Hrithik Roshan is in top form as the anti-hero and Tiger matches up to his senior in both smouldering on-screen intensity and the high-flying action. Both actors feed off each other’s ability to ace good-looking action. And when they’re not fighting for supremacy, they’re trying to out-dance each other in foot-tapping numbers. Vaani Kapoor has a small role, where she mostly manages to up the glamour quotient of the movie. Ashutosh Rana brings his usual dialled-up intensity to his performance, as well.

Like the quintessential entertainer, War serves up a little bit of everything in its narrative --- Action, drama, music, romance, exotic locations and car chases. The screenplay makes room for every commercial movie element. In a bid to make it Hollywood-esque, director Siddharth Anand and his team have designed the many stunts of the film to recreate thrills that you’d usually watch in movies like Mission Impossible and Fast And Furious. The relentless action and the dialoguebaazi is entertaining, but the predictable storytelling and the not-so-original screenplay leave a lot to be desired in this desi action flick. On the back of films like Hrithik's Dhoom 2 and Tiger's Baaghi 2, War is a decent addition to both actors' action film legacy. But this high-profile bang bang show is at best, popcorn entertainment for action movie buffs.
