Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

sunnyinsa93 Airlift is a movie based on a real life conflict and bloodshed that took place 25 years back in Kuwait...Akshay Kumar's gritty acting is really mesmerizing. This movie is perfect for classy movie lovers who like this type of patriotic movie Unlike other movies, the songs of this movie are soothing and full of melody. Overall Airlift is a good movie, solidly plotted,well executed & well acted. Go with your friends family & watch Airlift U guys surely feel proud to be an Indian after watching this movie.

steffycyril Airlift is one of the must watch movies.First of all it is a true incident.There are a lot of survivors helped by him and many people who are thankful for him. Many characters are appropriate and some scenes are admirable.I feel there should be more films in this genre. The heroine also is very wonderful.As the plot thickens,their love and care increases.The songs are much needed and important in the movie. It will inspire us to do something for the nation.The way he handles the situation is also good. The scenery is also depicted and things of that era are bought up wonderfully.The love for the baby is also bought here.The dialogues of heroine act to the humour.

SquigglyCrunch Airlift follows a man as he attempts to evacuate 170,000 Indians from Kuwait after the Iraqi invade in search of Kuwaitis to kill. To start, I did not like this movie. At all. Maybe it's because its the first Bollywood movie I've seen and I'm not used to it, but I really just didn't enjoy it. There's this really weird scene at the beginning where the main character starts singing but it's so obvious that he's not. He can't even lip sync it well. And the voice of the singer is heavily auto-tuned, so it's super out of place and fake-looking and sounding. The rest of the music is all super upbeat and way out of place. There's no reason for any of the chosen music to be in the movie. Maybe that's just what Bollywood movies are like, but I don't care. It negatively affected the movie, so I don't see any reason to let it go simply because of the people behind the making of it. Also this movie advertises itself as an action movie, and yet I recall one action scene towards the end, and its just a crappy fist fight. It was actually one of the worst looking fights I've ever seen. I've seen better fights in other foreign movies that advertise themselves as dramas. Yeah that's right. Movies that consist of almost nothing but talking have more exciting fights than the one in this 'action' movie.On top of all that, the movie is boring. It moves at a slug's pace, and I really didn't find anything in this movie that could catch my attention. I've seen it all before, and it's extremely predictable. Overall I really didn't like Airlift. As I was trying to remember what I watched today I couldn't remember this movie. I even forgot to rate it on Netflix when I finished it. I just didn't care at all for it. In the end I wouldn't recommend this movie. It's a forgettable waste of 2 hours.

ctowyi The film follows Ranjit Katyal (Akshay Kumar), a Kuwait-based businessman, as he carries out the evacuation of Indians based in Kuwait during the Invasion of Kuwait by Saddam Hussein's Iraq.Akshay Kumar as the Indian Oskar Schindler? Sure. The guy has a very believable everyday man charm to pull this off. I love how he is portrayed from the start. Just like Liam Neeson in Schindler's List, he is no hero from the onset. He earns his way to being a hero as the story progresses. Katyal is a male chauvinist and a stubborn patriarch. But sad to say the movie just doesn't engage me in a deeper way. I find it so superficial and the whole story just maps out pre-determined emotional beats that I can see from a mile away. There are lots of missed opportunities here, like the character working in the ministry who steadfastly helps Katyal feels so under-developed. This can't be a heroic story of just one guy. How can it be?
