Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer 'Brahmastra' has been in news ever since it was announced. After multiple delays due to the pandemic, the film has finally hit the theatres today, September 9. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the film is one of the most awaited movies of the year and it marks the director's comeback after a gap of nine years after 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani'.
'Brahmastra' is 'torturous'?
This film will also see the two newly married stars coming together onscreen for the first time. And, this undoubtedly has excited the fans along with the superb promotions that has created a buzz ever since the film was announced. The advance booking had managed to beat blockbuster films such as 'RRR' and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'. There were also reports of Delhi selling the most expensive ticket for 'Brahmastra' priced at a whopping Rs 2,200, sans the overhead charges. In Mumbai, the maximum ticket price is Rs 1,050.
Well, Twitter seems to be already flooded with the film's review and it is undoubtedly a mix of the good and the bad. Some of the people felt that the movie has been brilliantly done and have praised the director's 4-years of hardwork, while others are bashing the film right, left and centre with comments such as 'pathetic', 'torturous', 'disaster' and what not. Well, after so much of buzz, the film was expected to do well but now it seems that we have to wait for some more time to understand if 'Brahmastra' will be bogged down or it will bring back the much-desired numbers at Box Office. Have a look at some of the tweets below:
Pride of Indian Cinema.#Brahmashtra is AMAZING. The visuals are astonishing. A stunning visual effects driven spectacle. Highly recommended and a must see. Music is excellent and direction is great. Ayan's magic is beyond imagination. ????#Brahmastra #BrahmastraReview

AVERAGE - ⭐⭐
Can watch it one time for its grandeur visuals and Vfx. All actors did justice to their characters. But the story and screenplay were not up to the mark & didn't have any Emotional highs and lows. Editing can be crisper https://t.co/o9u9zU88gl

Cheap VFX. Screenplay not good. Emotions not connected. Waste of money. 1.75/5
Why was Nagarjuna cast in #Brahmashtra and could anyone else have played his role?
— Prithvi Subhedar (@PrithviSubhedar) September 9, 2022
Yes. Despite being immensely talented he's just been cast in a crappy role to pull southern crowd.#BrahmastraMovie #BrahmashtraReview

WARNING⚠ :-THIS LASER SHOW WILL EFFECT YOUR EYES!!#BrahmashtraReview pic.twitter.com/d4zhLD2MpA
Watched #Brahmastra #Brahmashtra . The major letdown is its weak story and Vfx is quite good considering it's budget. But due to delay it becomes outdated. It's a very boring movie only one time watchable.

Very poor story line

unnecessary hype created
2/5 star#BrahmashtraReview
Finally watched the movie. Not expected the worst level of screenplay. The story is not up to mark. The only best thing in the movie is SRK's cameo. The run time could have been trimmed 20-25 minutes.
