Persimmon’s review published on Letterboxd:
#JAWANonFirstDay A well written Story with Stylish Direction and Cheer worthy Action Sequences by Atlee, supported by Pure- Massy-Massy-Massy-YO! Bgm by Anirudh and 1 Unexpected Cameo! Makes a perfect New-Gen Masala Action Thriller Movie. This is the best Atlee film as well as best SRK action film so far!
Now let's talk about the Messages and Themes-
SPOILER REVIEW:
Now this is a PROBLEMATIC FILM if you find- Anniyan (Aparichit), Nayak: the real hero, Phir bhi dil hai hindustani, Indian (1996), Sivaji: the boss, etc. Type films Problematic. The Ideology behind Jawan is Mixing Patriotism with Resistance, where your fight is against Few Corrupt People for the good of the Nation! Yeah the film kinda exaggerates the Problems in our Country but they have taken real Problems and shown it with little bit of Exaggeration so that Audiance can feel Sympathetic and Emotional about the Characters, this film takes Inspiration from Money Heist, but here we can understand and feel the Characters, in MH I did not have any sympathy about any character, the series is fun but Fails to justify its lead character, where as JAWAN completely wins in this game
It doesn't teach people to Enrage Violence against the whole Nation just because there are few problems in the System, it tells people to fight for the rights and to choose a Government wisely
Azad blackmails the government to improve the problems in the system, I don't find anything wrong in it! And the flashback scene of Papa-SRK as Army Officer was really nice and Shows respect towards the Army of Bharat, some might say that it's for balancing but I don't think so! Overall it's a fun movie and has Rewatchability as well.
