“Animal” Delves Into A Complex Father-Son Relationship Amidst A Backdrop Of Extreme Bloodshed In The Underworld. At Its Core, It’s A Bizarre Love Story Between A Son Who Is Deeply Devoted To His Father !!

"Animal," focusing heavily on the problematic portrayal of the protagonist, Vijay, played by Ranbir Kapoor. It critiques the glorification of toxic masculinity, misogyny, and the lack of depth in character motivations within the film. The reviewer notes the excessive runtime, the overshadowing of other characters, and the neglect of exploring the crucial father-son discord.

It praises Ranbir Kapoor's talent and intensity, acknowledging his portrayal as a highlight despite the film's flaws. The action sequences, music, and Kapoor's performance are highlighted as strengths, but the overall narrative and character development are severely criticized.

Comparing the potential of Ranbir Kapoor's performance to that of Joaquin Phoenix's portrayal of Joker, the review implies that while Kapoor delivers a compelling performance, the film lacks the depth and substance to match his talent. It suggests that the crux of the story could have been more impactful if centered around the father-son relationship rather than the mayhem depicted in the film.
