ANIMAL Glorifies TOXIC Masculinity & Misogyny?

[@theahulkushwah]

What people don't understand is that being a strong man means to have great control over your emotions. Real alpha uses aggression wisely and with mind. Nothing is alpha about a man who is always frustrated or has daddy issues in 30s.

In the first half I liked it when Ranbir Kapoor said "kabhi dhoka nahi duga" and in the second half he did exactly what he said he will never do and then having the audacity to justify it with silly excuse just made the whole movie pointless for me at that time...

[@kotishjaiman8231]

It actually showed how shitty he became after he gave his life’s control to his already broken mind. He was already a little disturbed, then gets brain damage also his attitude is destroyed as he has to rely on meds and his wife for little things so he wants to unnecessarily dominate his wife to satisfy his ego, and cheated on his wife like a mindless animal does. In return he looses his father, wife and kinds + possibly his sisters. The 2nd half just shows his character deteriorating as a human

He keeps screaming in the house, he cannot make sound decisions, he doesn’t plan strategies well, he is extremely violent, gets in the field himself and is extremely stubborn. The entire movie he keeps crying about his father not loving him back but the point is that ‘he doesn’t listen to a single thing his father tells him, literally not even a single thing’. The whole movie he only thinks from his knees instead of his brain. In hindi, he is ‘ch****a’.

However there are certain points which do show toxic masculinity. But as a moviemaker, Vanga must not be having any intention to convey these bad messages. It is totally upon us if we glorify the subject or not. Like in a point of time I was also triggered and wanted to comeback as the personality like that toxic, but no that shouldn't happen, no.

Disgusting movie. Nobody says misogynistic men don't exist. But this writer-director so obviously hates women that he humiliates them at every turn.

vanga is not mentally disturbed. the treatment of women in his film is questionable, ranbir ki ma has no impactful lines, ranbir ki beti has no screen time , son gets some screen value, firing guns in class is unacceptable, being controversial is one thing , being irreverent towards women is another, tarantino made KILL BILL, mel gibson in Maverick, even Natural Born Killers don't show women as any replaceable side character. Vanga's women on the other hand are submissive, dependent on men for security and just play the second fiddle, bhai give atleast one femal character some powerful voice, Forget about bechdel test, treat them as humans with opinion at least

[@light_clover9636]

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. However, it doesn't mean I love and admire Ranbir Kapoor's character. The film depicted him without glorification. His morals and actions faced continuous scrutiny from his wife and father, with even a church father labeling him as a demon. The character was portrayed as a man dealing with inner demons, described by his wife as a maniac battling demons in his mind. His father labeled him a criminal, sending him to a boarding school. The film explored the consequences of his actions without romanticizing them. It delved into the transformation of a man into an animal, symbolizing a lack of moral conscience, attributed to his toxic relationship with his father. This dark, brutal, and gory narrative stands out in the Indian film industry, and I hope more directors in India explore such styles and genres.

When he got angry and said that he would kill her if she cheated on him, I think in that scene if he had stayed quiet and embarrassed and only grabbed her neck when she said that about his father then it would have been a little bit justified from Ranvijay's pov who worships his father. 4. And the scene about the pad changing 4 times a month, it should have been there but written a little differently so we could understand his issues after being ill.

I personally felt the overall runtime was a bit too long, but I guess it makes sense the way you explain it. Overall I can definately appreciate the craft, I was thoroughly entertained after watching it.

[@intilikhita199]

I went to watch this movie with high hopes because it's a Sandeep Reddy Vanga's film. I went with an open mind expecting a lot of bloodshed and emotions from this movie as the trailer suggests. Here are some of the problematic issues which made me disturbed. 1. First half of the movie was fairly good and interesting to watch. And what ever he was doing made sense. 2. Before the interval the hero just calls this guy and tells I'll kill you and your family. It's unnecessary for hero to go behind villians family although he didn't. But still saying that is not a Sigma male trait. 3. Second half hero's slowly going mad. Bra scene was absolutely unnecessary. It made me irritated and uncomfortable. 4. Heroine talks to her parents and tried to defend hero saying how much he took care of her during her pregnancy but still hero tries to hurt her Asking what the conversation was. 5. Hero cheats on his wife and justifies saying it was all to save my dad. But in reality he very well knew he was attracted to her. 6. Hickey color car. What the absolute f"k was that for. Why should she show her hickeys to those random guys for color identification. Would any sensible partner do it with his girl??? Now such shits will be idiolosed and may end up turning as trending reels in insta. 7. "Lick my shoe". Literally??? This is how she's treated for telling him the truth and confessing her feelings inspite of knowing that he used her to get the truth out. 8. Shamelessly telling that he'll kill heroine if she tries to have an affair. Doesn't wanna leave her when. She atleast asks for a divorce. 9. Smoking shamelessly knowing that such things will remove his name from heart donor list. Now that's that's the attitude when u know your dad is a fking millionaire and no body can screw u. 10. I wish he smoked and died and that heart goes to some person who genuinely wants to live healthy and do something with his life rather than killing 100's and 100's of people 11. "Pad statement". Absolutely unnecessary. She was doing her best to protect his health and take care of him but this ungrateful asshole makes the pain of an entire women community as a joke. I literally wanna slap him at that moment. 12. The scene where he fights with Bobby in the end. Why???? Could have taken a gun and shot. Why is it only u should fight???? Why are others standing and singing songs when u fight???? Why is this god level supremacy attitude in u??? Why can't you allow your brothers to help u??? It's like he killed 100's of people, cheated his wife, ready to kill himself or his brother(villian). It's like burning entire forest down just to save a single tree. It's like more damage done than protection. 13. I agree that he did all that for his father. But there's a difference between protecting your father and burning the entire town just to save him. 14. At a point I just wished hero to die. Because i couldn't sympathize or idiolose hero's characteristics anymore. In the end before he goes to talk to his dad, heroine tries to talk to him. But he completely ignored her. It's like just your father matters for u. Your mother, wife, children who are alive and suffering because of your actions those things doesn't matter at all to u. 15. Last scene he tries to show his father how toxic the father was. True his father was way strict and so it had a trauma on him from childhood. Then shut the FK up and go to America and live your happy life. Y do u wanna be here and worsen things for everyone 16. Heroine leaves him. Her brother comes to pick her up. This hero dude is just sitting. Without even trying to stop once. This is his love. He only reacts when his son comes n hugs. So basically u don't give a shit about your wife anymore. Then u could have given her divorce long back. Toxic asshole Some hypocrite Teenage boys seeing this movie and telling it's just a movie and normalising it are the same people who got offended for Barbie movie and called out saying it's pseudo faminisim. If that was problematic then this is super problematic. I don't have a problem with this movie or hero's character. I have a problem with hero calling himself a "Sigma male" and doing all this shit. He's insulting the respect that word has.

I think this is a very important thing to show everyone as in today's time there is a concept called "SIGMA MALE" which is also based on toxic masculanity so If everyone is getting offended after watching the zoya secne and the toxic charachter to ye accha hai na iska matlab ki vo log vaisa nai karega so i do think it was not required but at the same this was even required to send the message for what not to do when you are calling yourself SIGMA or ALPHA

1. The character is blinded by the love for his father. Nothing else comes before this relationship. 2. Rashmika's character looks dumb at the beginning and she breaks her engagement and goes back to loving the alpha male. There are girls like these in reality as well. Rashmika has acted brilliantly. 3. The moments where Ranvijay uses harsh lines on his wife is when he's not completely in his senses and under the influence of high dosage of medications. Such behaviour is also seen in reality. 4. He asks Zoya to lick his shoe but doesn't literally mean it nor he he allows her to after the way she was a part of the plan to murder his father. What she does is even more horrific than Ranvijay's behaviour. He still lets her go free. 5. He doesn't cheat on his wife. Hes pretty honest in confessing the same. For him it was a mission to find his father's murderer. No other relation comes above this. Please don't spread pseudo feminism in every chance you get.

Thank you for your nuanced review on this film. What concerns me is that in India. where Cinema affects real life as well (whether we like to believe or nor), glorification and celebrations of films like KGF, Pushpa etc is increasing day by day. When I see young men (or even middle-age men) cheering on scenes where Ranbir brings a gun to his sister's college, or when he insults Rashmika for her periods..... those bits disturb me. The silver lining is that our country there are reviewers like you who are here to guide men in the right direction and call out these films for their problematic scenes (while still appreciating the good parts). Overall, I liked the film more than I liked KGF, Pushpa etc. A part of me loved the film for Ranbir's performance, great and cinematography an engaging screenplay. BUT the film did have some problematic scenes, and I am not blind to overlook those things. Still, as a girl, I somehow did not get triggered as much I expected myself to be probably because I was prepared and I knew what I was getting into. I have watched a lot of Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarrantino now, so I feel I have become quite desensitized to this kind of cinema now.

I'm afraid that the youngsters are gonna celebrate and learn stuff from this which is a big problem. I personally am affected by the movie ( I'm trying to be an alpha, dominating etc etc.) .

You can read that with the way self proclaimed "alpha males" talk about "simps" and "soy boys" i.e. the men they assume are like doormats just because they're kinder to women and see them as equals. This is the part of patriarchy where patriarchy starts harming men. Men who don't fit the mold feel emasculated and weak. Men who do fit the mold abuse their rights and make rules for other people. Anyone who looks at shantanu would know he doesn't fit the "alpha male" mold himself. He's average to short in height, looks more like hero's comic relief side kick than the hero himself and his "job" is talking into the camera lens about movies. All of this goes against what a traditionally masculine man is supposed to look like and do. Let's analyse the premise of men's protector behavior not being toxic in any instance. 1. Who are these men protecting the family and the women from? Other men. It's chiefly men who have created this dichotomy of good men vs bad men. They scare the women of their community or tribe or religion into thinking that the men of the other community/tribe/religion are out to get them but the good men are going to protect them. But they ask for something in return. The women need to surrender their privileges and freedom to them so they can be protected. They have to cover their bodies, cover their heads, not talk to other men, they have to be the good men's bang maids and serve them. And what happens if the bad men get to these women, the good men decide to take revenge because the bad men have touched their property (i.e. their women). And how do they take this revenge? By assaulting women of the other community to send a message to the bad men. But they did it out of revenge, they aren't bad themselves. It's the bad men who are bad and the good men who are good. 😂 2. Any man no matter how he outwardly looks and talks can protect his family if he wants to. Let's look at the character of Suri from rab ne bana di jodi. By no definition of the "alpha male" is he anything but a simp and beta. Yet every one knows he'll protect and love his wife way more than a man likd kabir singh can. 3. The whole concept of men being the sole protectors has become outdated in today's world where we have law enforcement to fight crime. We don't need a brother like mithun to fight our gRapist or a husband like kabir singh to beat up any one who applied color to our face on holi.

[@sampadization]

I don't think the protector male character thing is glorified in the movie.. It actually shows how just wrong this mindset is.. in the movie itself.. How obsession with this protector mindset can make you a monster, killer, and abuser... And all these type of characters we do see in our lives.. Many men who'd abuse like this if they get power.. He's a mass murderer, ofc he lacks morals and has no justification to any of his actions..

[@msredcurtains]

Well said dichotomy created by men, to scare women. And men harm other men with this mindset. All in all bad.

[@thelonewarrior1849]

I guess you need a mental asylum, since when did protecting your mother or sister or wife become "treating them as object" are you on some kind of weed??? And if this is so then why all the feminists keep crying about "our country cannot protect women , we are unsafe" what protection you're asking for then???? Coming to Kabir singh didi Kaun si movie dekh li, usne clearly college k ladke se pucha and the guy said vo ladke Kabir k enemy the aur forcefully chest or Butts p color lagaya aur vo ro rahi thi movie dekhi h thik se??? How easily you said "he hit those guys because they applied color on preeti"😂😂😂 so tell me if someone does such shit with you what do you expect ??? Are you going to normalise it ??? By asking your bf or brother to leave the guy and not hit him and same thing goes in this movie his sister was teased nobody came in her support so what do you expect a teen to do (apart from that he did everything wrong and murder cannot be glorified in the name of protecting) IF YOUR GUY PROTECTS YOU THEN HE IS TOXIC , HE TREAT YOU LIKE HIS PROPERTY , IF HE DONT THEN HE IS COWARD HE IS NOT A REAL MAN......WHAT THE HELL DO YOU PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANT And one last question, if you're going out with your mom and during an argument on road someone grabs your mother's hair and nobody comes in your support not even police , what you'll do ??? Won't you hit her (that person attacking your mom) wouldn't that be aggression???, there are time and situation which compel us to bring our worst because all the doors are closed so it's not totally the person at fault , stop raising fingure at everything a man does

I think people are not noticing one fact with Ranbir's character is that.. in the beginning only when ranbir talked about alpha male community and how they used to perform shows how he thinks of himself just like a Alpha ... Strong and conqueror that's why he is protective towards his family as he feels it's his sole responsibility and he can't think of his wife with another man and he himself goes out and just to achieve his aim he is cheating on his wife which he thinks is part of his duty

[@skullkraken_resurrected9857]

An alpha male or sigma male is someone who workout and maintain a healthy life and someone who works toward his goals also not a simp. the movie is showing the stereotypical image of an alpha male or sigma male which is not true.

[@satodalkarmakar680]

Went to watch the flick today. When the movie was glorifying the toxic traits of Ranveer's character, most of the cheering came from women themselves. Sometimes the general IQ of the Indian populace, especially women baffles me.

[@vinnienanda]

I absolutely agree with the masculinity part however one needs to understand few things- 1. Cheating- Cheating on your partner is a terrible act be it in Four More Shots or Animal. Having said that, a vast majority will not go and watch Four More Shots Please (considering the target audience which is mostly urban english-speaking upper middle class individuals) however a vast majority of people will watch films like Animal and Kabir Singh especially in tier-3 and 4 towns. In a country like India where there is a high celebrity worship and cinema going culture, such people will think it is normal to cheat on your spouse. Already young teenagers are getting influenced by films and are stalking, slashing their wrist in front of a girl, sending constant creepy DMs, eve teasing and worst- r*ping and throwing acid on young girls when rejected. There was a popular incident in Australia where *A 32-year-old Indian man in Australia, accused of stalking two women, had escaped conviction after a court considered that he had been wrongly influenced by Bollywood movies.* What does it say about India's image world wide? Where to draw the line with such films? 2. Glorification of violence and gangsters- People will give examples of Gangs of Wasseypur, Mirzapur, Sacred Games- here is the catch, the following films and shows showcase the futility of violence rather than glorifying it and making the protagonists look like heroes. Even in films like Godfather trilogy- the protagonist has a sad ending towards the third part (wife leaves him, daughter dies and he dying a sad death). As a gangster film lover I am saying this. 3. Masculinity and reducing female characters to nearly voiceless beings- Hollywood has gore- YES but the women are not voiceless beings who can be easily used, replaced and trampled upon in those films. Even women are cunning, flawed, powerful and have a say in many of those films, they are equally flawed humans. In Vanga's films women are mostly voiceless. That's the problem, in Gangs of Wasseypur- Nagma and Mohsina had a say, in Sacred Games- Subhadra, Jojo, Jamila, Kusum, Kaanta were not voiceless, in Mirzapur- Sweety Gupta was not giving in to the advances of Munna Bhaiya, Madhuri Yadav, Beena Tripathi and Golu Gupta were powerful and were equal stakeholders in season 2. Tabu's character on Maqbool was not a flowerpot. The film was giving the vibes of 90's Bollywood films where the Hero takes revenge of his sister's r*pe and the sister was mostly sidelined. Coming to the topic of masculinity, as you said, there is a clear difference between being a protector and protecting your loved ones and being outright cruel and treating women like property. Being a protector does not give you the excuse of being cruel to your wife. Food for thought- if we are ready to call out toxic masculinity in Salman, Tiger, Varun and Kartik's films then we should also discuss Animal's problematic content and whether it was necessary or not

[@Heartclose24]

Actually if you see, Tamil cinema have always had these characters in their movies prior to Sandeep Vanga making these. For example, In Pudhupettai, Dhanush's character Kokki Kumar too plays an Alpha male. He gets married to a Prostitute and has a baby with her, has a blissful life. Yet on the wedding day of his friend's sister, he forcefully marries her and takes her home. In front of his wife sleeps with her. When she denies and says that her brother will kill him, Dhanushs character threats her by saying that if she doesn't sleep with him, not only will he kill her brother but also burn her family. He does all this in front of his wife. Also, In NGK, starring Suriya, the lead character sleeps with Rakul Preet Singh's character Vanathi, while Sai Pallavi, his wife, is waiting for him. When asked about it, he justifies by saying that he is doing it for their benefit. So such characters are no surprise from Sandeep Reddy Vanga as well

1 Group sex is not allowed (haram) in Islam even if you have more than one wife 2 Muslim men are allowed to marry only 4 wives so that they can support orphan and widow women in the society and prevent bad people from taking their advantage (which we can see nowadays how orphan women are trafficked for brothels)

Just watched the movie and I can't believe how much some reviewers are bashing this movie for no reason. It doesn't justify ANYTHING from Ranvijay's character and all of his negative actions have some ramifications or consequences. Geetanjali's brilliant monologue calling him out for his toxic behaviours and her slapping Ranvijay multiple times made it absolutely perfect and showed that the script is not glorifying any of his actions.

[@niveditasah8348]

No no no that's the thing he didn't face any consequences or whatsoever for his actions... He goes ahead to murder hundreds of people and in the end the only lesson he gets is that his wife leaves him because he cheated. It just shows that if you have money you can do anything and you are the "alpha" male and the role of women in this movie is limited to being just a prop that does not have any opinion and are merely puppets(except for the part where rashmika gave her monologue).

Confused about protective masculinity as well- do we want to have a society where men need to protect women+child from other men? Or do we want women to take care of themselves? Going to a college and bashing up people and shooting in a college is not an example of any sort of protection. What if the guy is wrong and accidentally kills someone or bashes a wrong person?

[@dhruvsharma3199]

this movie is for people who actually are immune to the impact a movie creates in real life I think I am in right state of mind when I wanted the character to stop existing by the end of the movie he was pure psychotic and I agree, if this was a hollywood movie, people would have been praising it a lot more

[@aayushkolhatkar6104]

He did realised that he had done wrong and apologize yet he became aggressive, why? Just because of his obsessive love for his father, and he clearly stated that after becoming the protector of his family no one can come between his families affairs not even in laws, and then when he confront his wife, he also knew she'll be in a lot of rage, but the thing which actually triggered him the most that she wished his father would've died when he got shot, who he loves immensely, probably even more than her...

[@Tejaswi_Rao]

His love for his father was irrational and toxic from the beginning. He has no moral boundaries. It was more about him, than about his father. There is only one problem with the movie. Showing a negative personality is fine but, glorifying it, justifying it & calling him an Alpha, a hero is not cool, not right.

Protecting sister is good ! But taking a gun ane threatening is not protecting! Its wrong! Kahinakahi Sandeep justifies whatever his protagonist does ! That's wrong!

That's the problem

[@ronakmankale9599]

Ranbir clearly mentioned in one of his interviews that,”this movie is not for the people who get triggered easily” and he meant this. Also there’s nothing wrong with the writing and other stuff cause all these aspects of the movie do exist in the real world so it’s just a character and people should just see it as that in my opinion! Also young boys are smart enough in my opinion cause if they turn out like this character, it’s not the character they impacted them but rather its them!
