Check out some of the X (formerly Twitter) reactions below:
The other side of X (formerly Twitter) is not so much in agreement with the praises. One of the users shared his disappointment after watching Indian Police Force. He wrote, “After watching #IndianPoliceForce, my hopes are literally crashing for Singham 3 I hope #RohitShetty gives a banger with #SinghamAgain But for now, #IPF didn’t work for me at all.”
Another Twitter user also shared his disappointment on the platform. He wrote, “#IndianPoliceForce is a LAME reiteration of Shetty’s theatrical releases vs something new and inventive. It’s only highlight are some long shot action set pieces but the storytelling is bland. unintentionally funny & I can only handle the sepia tone & drone shots for so long.”
Some users have also contended that despite the predictability of the storyline, the Indian Police Force delivers high-action-packed scenes. Thus, while the internet remains divided in their opinions, it remains to be seen if the series can find success from viewers and critics in the upcoming days.
