Animal
Manage episode 398312660 series 3255221
Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, is hardly as offensive as director Sandeep Reddy Vanga probably intended it to be, but it’s aggravating on many levels nonetheless.
We discuss the film’s infantile approach to its themes and Vanga’s dedication to being edgy at the expense of storytelling and character development.
We also talk about the film’s unbearable length, inconsequential subplots, and the odd decision to not introduce Bobby Deol’s villain sooner.
Along the way, we also talk about the numerous petulant attacks that Vanga has made on critics and how his neediness is reflected in the film.
