What critics say Critics are mostly positive with reservations: 11 of 16 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 1 gave it 2 or less. Praised: the action and the script.

≈3.5est.
The Deshbhakt · Akash Banerjee

Best VFX seen in Bollywood and a high-octane action drama, held back by missing emotion.

Hindustan Times · Monika Rawal Kukreja

Touted as India’s first aerial action film with Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone playing top combat aviators, Fighter creates an immersive experience and turns out to be equally impressive.

How is the fan score worked out?

It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
