It's despicable that the filmmakers and everyone involved with it - including the audiences - are using *Hitler* as a metaphor *for the tough way he protects his sisters*.

An overly melodramatic slapstick movie that copies liberally from some better recent movies of the genre - Andhadhun (yes, I know it's ripped from The Piano Tuner, the French movie) comes to mind. Some plot devices go completely haywire, such as extreme editing and constant serendipity - everyone keeps running into everyone, no one who is a named character ever gets hurt - err .. ok, no spoilers, so I'll leave it at that. And actors are all fine, but the child actor, Inayat Varma is a total delight. (My favorite pet peeve in desi movies is the horrendous acting of child actors, so this is saying something.) Loved seeing Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra back together after Dangal. Getting really, really tired of seeing Pankaj Tripathi go through his Nana Patekar phase - he's in every movie playing the same character! And extremely sad to Rajkummar Rao stuck in 2017. He doesn't seem to act so much as he performs like he's in a circus, reeling off his different histrionics ... as if he's constantly auditioning to be in a movie. It's not a bad movie to watch when high on weed with friends on a Friday night. Otherwise, you're wasting your 2.5 hours. Plus the additional time spent writing a review like this to vent and redeem yourself somewhat, you know, some punya for the 2.5 hours of paap.

I'm 4 episodes in and loving it. Both the actresses playing the lead character shine. Such a tight script and editing. (Anya Taylor-Joy reminds me of Jeanne Tripplehorn!)

Not a very sophisticated, skilled,or entertaining movie. The story had potential, but the screenplay was flat and amateurish. The direction seems lazy and rushed - almost none of the scenes regardless of how important they are to the narrative, have any depth or intensity, including the climax scene! Even Kangana Ranaut herself, who is a great actor, gives a performance that looks unengaging, as if she just rushed through the scenes with just one take. And finally, many scenes don't seem to connect. Many other times, there are important scenes that just happen without the needed lead up to them.
