This film is quite boring to watch, drags on quite a bit, very difficult to understand and process, needs more than one viewing, has horrible characterization (the protagonist doesn't even have a name, the villain is boring and no character is memorable at the end of the movie), has a lame and stale plot (typical idea of total human annihilation). Emotionally, there's nothing impactful and it is quite dull in this aspect as well. At the end of the movie, nothing seems memorable or fun. Even the music in this movie is uninspiring and is not that great by any means. The physics of the world in this movie is good and decently designed with references to entropy and thermodynamics. Friendship between Neil and the protagonist is nicely portrayed as well. The concept of time moving backwards and some of those dynamics such as the pincer movement are quite ingenious but it's horrible from the point of view of execution and comprehensibility. In the end, it is a movie built only on the idea of reversed/inverted time. Technically, the film is indeed smart and Nolan might as well be the smartest filmmaker ever. He could as well have been a physicist in an alternate universe! The portrayal of time, entropy, and inversion are just genius for sure. Apart from that, the film is quite shallow and lacking in various aspects.

Pretentious, slow, boring, and horrible characterization. No emotions throughout the movie. Absolutely confusing mess of a plot, barely comprehensible. A movie so slow and boring that you beg for it to stop or go to sleep in between. World building is nice. Musical score is overused and is quite repetitive but still enchanting and puts us in a trance. Overall, best to avoid this overhyped wannabe smart film.

Actual Rating: 2.5/5 This movie is a slow-burner that actually never starts burning even towards the end. The plot is boring, pace terrible and extremely dragging. It is not that thrilling or gripping. There are only two or three such interesting scenes. The rest of the movie is unwatchable. Nothing significant happens till interval. Even after that, it is a boring watch. Coming to characterization, chemistry between Vijay and Katrina was non-existent. Comedy was horrible or just did not stick well. Police investigation was made to look like a joke as well. The music was inappropriate or meaningless across several scenes. One other negative aspect of the movie is that it kind of justifies or glorifies murder of one's partner. The good part of the movie is the direction or screenplay. The build-up till interval was decent but very slow. The movie could have been better with a better core plot. Acting is okay. Setting of the movie is simple and effective. Overall, it is best to avoid this mess of a movie. Just a waste of time.

Unconvincing plot, mediocre acting, poor VFX, and a stretched runtime make this film just a one-time watch! The plot is a little far-fetched/hard to believe and the end-credits scene of cloning makes very little sense. Such twists make less sense in the movie. The VFX in the movie looks quite horrible in various scenes such as the stadium scenes, car scenes, etc. For such a high budget, it looks quite amateurish. The acting at various points felt a bit underwhelming or mediocre as well. In many scenes, acting felt cringeworthy or forced. The runtime too is quite long which makes it a little hard to watch. Overall, this is a one-time watch and can be seen as a mediocre entertainer! For serious movie geeks, it is best to avoid this one!

It's thrilling, gripping, mysterious, unique, and clever. The background scores and some of the songs perfectly complement the strange events that seem to happen in the film. Brilliant acting from the protagonist throughout the film. Clever screenplay and direction. At the end, the logic turned out to be so simple that I wondered how I was fooled with such a simple yet clever concept. Overall, this movie is a nice thriller and seems quite ahead of its time.

Extremely violent, dark and gory, has non-stop fight sequences, very thin plot, subpar character development, is quite unrealistic, and a bit monotonous. Yet it is entertaining, intense, and thrilling. Pretty entertaining as far as action and fight sequences are concerned. Those who don't love action and bloodshed, avoid this film without a second thought! 'Kill', as the name suggests, is all about fights, bloody kills, violence, and gore. Almost everything in the film happens inside a running train which gives it a unique feel. The fight scenes though intense are quite unrealistic. The NSG commandos get brutalized so much in the beginning itself yet fight towards the end as though nothing at all had happened. And this keeps repeating over and over again making it quite unrealistic. Apart from that, there are not many light-hearted scenes in the film except for a few scenes in the beginning to balance the extreme violence and bloodshed in the film.

Unique, Emotional, Thrilling, Relatable, Good Background Score, and Excellent Screenplay and Plot. However, the excessive digital elements in the movie can get a bit monotonous or gimmicky. This movie has a unique approach to storytelling through the use of digital screens and other digital elements. The story and screenplay are gripping and unique although can get a bit slow at times and the digital elements can get a bit repetitive. Overall, a unique mystery thriller film that certainly deserves a viewing!

Very slow, not that engaging, too melodramatic, but good acting performances, a few heart-touching moments, good background scores, and a good message for the audience (never give up on your married life so easily, keep working on yourself and solve any disputes and problems together)! The story is too dramatic and a bit cringeworthy. It gets too overwhelming at times, at least it's the case for me. However, to the film's credit, there are quite a few good emotional scenes woven into the film. The screenplay however is bad, it is too slow and gets quite boring. There's singing going on all throughout the movie and it gets very irritating and annoying after a while. Some of the romantic scenes too feel a bit forced or artificial. The message of the movie however is very relevant for today's couples: "don't give up on your marriage and loved ones, try and solve the problems together".

Very slow. Not at all a proper thriller at least as far as the first half is concerned. Gets better only after an hour or so. Why does Madhu even have to chop the lady into pieces? It makes very less sense. Does the movie encourage chopping up of dead people? Is that a good message to convey? The setting (hilly, cloudy, and very rainy) though pretty scenic, can get quite monotonous and tiring. One message in the movie is that infidelity is quite unethical and is something that one shouldn't do. But the way the protagonist escapes from the law in the end after committing those crimes in anger is not a great bar to set!
