A one time watch

Rating: 6/10 (13 January 2019)

Not exactly what i was expecting. Had a lot of goosebumps watching the trailer and then going to the movie with the thing heard about of what they called surgical strikes.
A few times I felt that the movie was not going forward and it remained disconnected from one part to the next. There should be have been more of a continuity feeling but I felt it lacked it.
Some scenes were not necessary and some scenes were a bit too long. At one point, it felt like I was playing a war video game rather than watching the movie.
Pros: good acting, inspirational and emotional scenes. Get knowledge of all it all happened (even though not everything shown in the movie could be true, for example the devices that are shown to be used by the Indian army may not be true). Paresh Rawal as Ajit Doval was good. Vicky Kaushal and Yami Gautam's acting was pretty solid. Yami Gautam's looks were something to die for. She's not only a good looking woman but she sbould evolve as a versatile actress in the future that sets her apart from the chhichhora class of actresses of Katrina Kaif, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis fakhri, and so on.
Cons: the movie lacked some more details and continuity. I think the movie could have had more related content that could have held the watchers to the seat. Some portion in the movie was predictable. When I was watching the movie it reminded me of the Hollywood flick, 13 hours. Comparing that to this, the former was goosebumps all the way in the end. I was hoping the same for this as an Indian. But I didn't feel it in the most part of the movie. Some contents are cruel. So if you are sensitive close your eyes.
