Movie Review:
"Fighter" takes audiences on an unforgettable journey with Indian Air Force (IAF). Air Dragons are a powerful group formed to meet sudden danger. "Fighter" not only displays flying skills of its actors, but also highlights bonds of camaraderie and brotherhood among them.
It's both politics and not politics in “Fighter,” a Bollywood military drama heavily inspired by “Top Gun: Maverick.” "Fighter" commemorates both the Pulwama attack of 2019 in Kashmir that resulted in the death of 40 Indian military police. In addition, Balakot air strike that killed either no one or a bunch of anti-Indian extremists, depending on your viewpoint. It's not surprising that Hindi pop cinema and Modi-era India are using these real-life events as a basis for a saber-rattling film.
Performances in "Fighter" are uniformly excellent. Each actor brings depth and depth to his or her role. Every character, from soldier struggling with memories of his past to the young recruit eager to prove himself in battle, is given room to shine, lasting long after the credits roll.
In conclusion, "Fighter" is a thrilling and emotionally moving honor for brave men and women of the Indian Air Force. It is a film that will leave audiences cheering for the heroes onscreen, and reflect on the true meaning of sacrifice and honor with its thrilling action, heartfelt performances, and messages of camaraderie and courage.
