Ek Tha Tiger Audience Reviews

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
alikhan-23790 This is one of my best seen action films in bollywood till date. From beginning to ending it's gone through as an actionable thriller along with love story very smartly. Beneath the whole movie, salman's performance as a spy could be acceptable. Apart from this point, actions sequences from him really come out stunningly and surprisingly. And his love interest, katrina kaif who's also a spy has given her best in both lovable scenes and action scenes which will undoubtedly make you to be excited. According to me this movie is a great recipe which has tasty ingredients such as action,thriller and love altogether perfectly. All action lovers should not miss this film for any reason which is not only for sallu bhai and kaif but also for this amazing scripted film.Plus points : Action sequences.Performance of lead roles.Amazing climax.Lovable songs and so on.Minus points : Movie could have been even lengthier. Don't miss this wonderful entertainment!!!!!!!!!!
Gypsi Bates Tiger (Salman Khan), an Indian special agent, is sent to Dublin on assignment. While there, he falls in love with Zoya (Katrina Kaif) and serious complications arise. Ek Tha Tiger is a satisfying mix of action, romantic-comedy, espionage, and drama, with fantastic musical numbers. Filmed in five countries, the scenery, location shots, and cinematography were stunning. The fights and stunts were impressive, the costumes wonderful, and the plot engaging. I did not expect it to be an all-around great movie, and was pleasantly surprised. I highly recommend it.
Leofwine_draca EK THA TIGER is an Indian action thriller of the kind that could only ever be made in that country. It stars big shot heart throb Salman Khan who plays a globe-trotting secret agent on the hunt of traitors selling military secrets to Pakistan. His adventures take him to Ireland, Turkey, and many other places besides, and there are always beautiful women to romance and bad guys to fight.Let me make this plain from the outset: EK THA TIGER isn't a film you want to be taking seriously. It's incredibly cheesy at frequent intervals and totally unserious. Realism is out of the window so you can forget that. Khan's character is so impossibly perfect, heroic, and stylish that he becomes a caricature of the movie action hero. The use of slow motion shots in the action scenes make them impossible to take seriously too.Like many Indian movies, EK THA TIGER has a long length which means there's a lot of padding here. Some of it I didn't care for much; I didn't like the female lead and the romance and flirtation scenes between the two bored me. The song and dance numbers are limited but a lot of fun. Where this film held me really entranced was in the action sequences, which are something else. They're heavily indebted to Hollywood cinema, in particular THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM which is openly copied in some scenes. They're elaborate, expertly staged, and have great choreography. Sure, they're over the top, against the laws of physics and occasionally reliant on cheesy CGI, but it doesn't matter when the action is handled this lovingly and is so much fun. The action is explosive, violent, and hard-hitting and makes great use of an extraordinary stunt team who go the extra mile. I hope to encounter more of this delightfully over-the-top Indian-style action in my future viewings.
Sherazade Where do I begin with 'Ek Tha Tiger' I guess I should say with blockbuster type films, acting is really not required as the special effects, action sequences, loud music and flashy wardrobe and props become the stars of the show and therefore are at the forefront and what the audiences are treated to. Sure there are those who would come for the superstar cast but action movie-buffs are usually viewing for the former rather than the latter. That said, 'Ek Tha Tiger' or ETT as it is known to fans around the world is not entirely bad acting wrapped in explosive special effects and action sequences, it does have its moments of drama and suspense and by the time its elaborate plot starts to unravel, you will either have made the commitment to keep watching or have given up completely as you do have to suspend your disbelief quite a lot for this film. Tiger (played by Salman Khan) is a secret agent for India's intelligence bureau and lives for his job which he is good at as evident in the nearly thirty minute long opening sequence in which he is double-crossed and cornered by half a dozen men yet manages to beat them all up and escape with hardly a scratch on him. That encounter took place somewhere in Morocco, it has been used as the venue for many action scenes in Hollywood films as well. Afterwards, Tiger returns to India where he is sent on a new mission to Ireland to keep track of a professor whom the bureau believes in leaking sensitive information to Pakistan. Upon Tiger's arrival, he scopes out the professor and finds it hard to believe that such man who is so engrossed in his duties at the university could be spy. Nevertheless, he proceeds on his mission to keep track of the man. One day, while he's watching the professor, he notices movement in the professor's home after the professor has left to walk his dog and sneaks in to investigate, inside he finds a woman dancing around as she cleans the home, feeling that she is being watched she turns around and it's Katrina Kaif (yup bad acting in something even as simple as turning around and looking surprised) and Tiger is immediately smitten. He devises a plan to get to know her by pretending he doesn't have a place to stay and she offers him room and board and sooner rather than later they begin dating. Tiger continues to receive his Intel via his assistant played by Ranvir Shorey and the relationship between Zoya (Kaif's character) and Tiger blossoms until one night when Tiger receives a phone call and is told that a transmission is being sent from the professor's home while Tiger and the professor are out watching a play together. Tiger races to the intercept the transmission and catches the culprit in the act, with his gun trained on the culprit he asks the person to turn around with their hands up. What happens next and the result of that makes up the rest of the film. Hey! Wait didn't that happen to James Bond in Casino Royal? Aryan "Mr A" in Dhoom 2? Shekhar Verma in Khakee? You know what, I could go on and on with this. I rate it 4/10. The music was good though, especially the song that played when the lovers were in Havana, Cuba.
