So, this is easy. Rating: Believability - 0; Intellectually Compelling - 0; Emotionally Engaging - 0; Relevancy - 0; & Meaningful - 0. Hardly any story in the movie. It was so gimmicky with what seemed to be love-story force-fitted into it for songs.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I will only say this Do not watch the movie trust it will be a waste of time and money. This movie has literally no backbone and no story other than the too much stretched out love story which also contributed to the film's bad reception among other things, but credit where credit is due the sound effects and vfx are unlike anything i have seen in indian cinema they did a great job there if only they would focus on the rest of the movie as much maybe it could have been better. All in all do not watch the movie it is pathetic.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Brahmastra or Premastra?? Wrong genre??
Ayan sir , pls try to make convincing stories about astras.. some misguided wrong infos hurted me a lot!! Ayan only focuses on love chemistry between Ranbir and Alia.. cheap copy of hollywood films, highly dependent on VFX!!

No climax, one sided motto.. Cheap marvel film.. Highly disappointed..
Try to skip this film .. no entertainment .. poor acting too… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Who is more stupid? Ayan who is writing this mediocre story from 10 years? Karan Johar who spent 400 cr on this stupid script? Me who spent 400 on ticket believing the hype?

First they introduced Brahmastra as the most powerful Astra. Then they told Agni Astra is even more powerful. In the end they told LoveAstra is the Strongest of all. If they don't have clarity in which one is more powerful, how will audience connect and what's the point of Astraverse?

Negatives:
1) Dialogue writing is terrible. It's the biggest negative for me.
2) Story, Screenplay, Direction - Ayan sucessfully failed in all 3 departments. There will be a limit for stupidity and this film crosses it.
3) Love track. For god's sake why do you need love track in every film?
4) Shahrukh's role utterly wasted.
5) Nobody has acted in this film. Except for Ranbir in few scenes & Nagarjuna, everyone in the whole film was expressionless.
6) Villain is not powerful enough.
7) Alia is present only to love Ranbir & provide him with moral support.

⚠️SPOILERS AHEAD⚠️

8) Why does hero always have an entry with a song? Because he is HERO… Expand

We wanted to explore Astraverse. Instead what we witnessed was a very unnatural lovestory with lack of chemistry and emotions; cringey B grade dialogues (except AB's monologues); very bad screenplay (regularly interrupted by unnecessary romantic angle); vision less diverted direction; Lack of background story for almost every character (especially mouni Roy's and Alia Bhatt's character). Basically it is very poorly executed movie decorated by good VFX to lure the audiences.… Expand

The Starcast, The razzmatazz and The Pyrotechnics couldn't save this ship from sinking. Bad storyline cliched by corny love-story. An all-encompassing Disappointment. This one's gonna age BAD. God save it's soul.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie itself was fine, the acting from the villain was not great, and for all the praise ive heard for the vfx, they were bad, like - congrats you did particle effects well, so did infamous second son, a game from 2013 which had to do those effects 30 times per second in real time. I will say the vfx are good when the vfx is as good as iron man (2008)

Plot wise. Im going to be comparing to the mcu as brahmastra is supposed to be the begining of a new cinematic universe. They only say that it is, the world ending stakes are way too high for a starting, and they treat the ending as if its the conclusion after years of build up. Like imagine if thanos was defeated by the avengers in the first iron man movie and the last line was "we have won the fight". There would be no point in the mcu! Thats my main issue with this movie. If you want to watch it, im not stopping you. But theres many movies which are going to be even better, so waste your time by watching them instead of this… Expand
