Plot
Ronni (Tiger Shroff) suffers an accident and slips into a coma, where much of the story unfolds as hallucinations. His love story with Alisha (Harnaaz Sandhu) blurs between reality and delusion, only to be dismissed as a dream. Meanwhile, his brother (Shreyas Talpade) dies pointlessly, while Ronni faces a villain (Sanjay Dutt) in a story that collapses under its own weight.
Overview
Directed with little coherence, Baaghi 4 stretches into 2.5 hours of action sequences that lack purpose. The plot tries to mix tragedy, romance, and high-octane stunts, but what emerges is an exhausting cinematic experience where action overtakes logic, and emotions are lost in translation.
Performances
- Tiger Shroff: Brings energy to the fights but delivers wooden acting and repetitive expressions.
- Harnaaz Sandhu: Miscast as the heroine; ornamental but ineffective.
- Shreyas Talpade: Wasted in yet another underwritten role.
- Sonam Bajwa: Reduced to a prop role, underutilized.
- Sanjay Dutt: Plays the villain half-heartedly, clearly deserving better material.
Technical Aspects
- Action: Overdone, loud, and pointless, without narrative value.
- Direction: Lack of control; feels like every department worked in isolation.
- Visuals: Glossy but empty; style over substance.
Music
Forgettable songs and uninspired background score that fail to elevate any emotion.
Editing
Bloated runtime with no rhythm; poor pacing makes the 2.5 hours feel longer.
Positives
- A few well-shot stunts.
- High production scale.
Negatives
- Illogical screenplay and weak writing.
- Overdone action sequences with no meaning.
- Flat performances from lead actors.
- Poor direction and editing.
- Predictable and repetitive narrative.
Analysis
Baaghi 4 is an example of style without soul. Instead of building on the franchise’s action-thriller reputation, it delivers a half-baked story drowned in overlong fights and bizarre hallucination-driven twists. What could have been an intense action drama ends up being a confused, tiring watch.
Bottomline: Cinematic Disaster
Rating: 3/5
