Animal review Live Updates: 'First half is mind blowing'

An X user @silent_traderr wrote, “First half is good mind blowing, violence at its best till the interval. The second half starts a little slow but the last 30 minutes are the emotional part of the film. And Ranbir Kapoor's 2nd version surprise package in the last 5 minutes. Now waiting for the sequel.”

‘Ranbir Kapoor is undeniably one of the finest actors in this era’

@ishubhamsakhuja tweeted, “Ranbir Kapoor has set the bar sky-high with his unparalleled dialogue delivery, swagger, and ruthless demeanor. Love him or hate him, he’s undeniably one of the finest actors in this era. Rashmika Mandanna gave her best shot, but unfortunately, she fell short, except in the love scenes. Anil Kapoor, the ‘Jhakkas’ actor, portrayed a decently arrogant father role that grabs attention, so is the short badass role of the “Lord Bobby Deol”, but the spotlight is on Ranbir, the monstrous son ready to do anything for his father.”

Animal review Live Updates: Fan compares Ranbir Kapoor film with Vijay’s Leo

An X user @SathyanRamasamy wrote, “#AnimalMovie reminded me of the recent K Town Biggie Leo. So I had to do an unavoidable Short Comparison. Basically #Animal i would say joins the list of the Most hyped and flopped films of 2023 like #Adipurush, #Leo, #BholaShankar etc...Firstly Like #ThalapathyVijay Sir, even Mr #RanbirKapoor portrayed his Career's peak performance, still unfortunately neither of'em couldn't save the film. Secondly In both the films First Half was average but Second Half's writing was very poor to the core. Both turned out to be a strictly not for Family Audience (Too much of Gore). Family Bonding/Sentiments, Unwanted & Unrelative touch of Religion didn't work in either of'them."
