A brilliant satire that restores your faith in Indian cinemas.

An excellent premise that was poorly executed. An interesting plot that was ruined with dull acting and expressions. The screenplay fail to deliver realism or effect. If this was meant to be a chamber drama, the frequent cuts were unnecessary to the point of being intolerable. This could have been an exceptional movie. I don't know if the actors were under rehearsed. The 10 minutes of Mr.Bachhan's final monologue, though dramatic, has no relevance to the storyline. Disappointed.

It's a movie that will oddly satiate you. How little things make and break a person for a life time.

This is a good spy movie and definitely worth the watch. Recommend it.

Minimalist approach is a wonderful thing.

A good movie for kids. It has that cult classic Vibe to it for the new younger generation. Nothing innovative or spectacular for older people except a drive through nostalgia of older films and older times.

I honestly found it boring after a couple of episodes. Though the actors are good they can only do so much with the script they are dealt with. The story line is lack lustre, for instance they have one half of an episode that has a zombie chasing a character through houses, and a store, and a school and a fire engine garage and more houses, he even falls asleep midway on the roof of a bus, with the zombie patiently grunting all around it. The story fails to move anywhere towards a rising action or derive a climax. It's just people dying and turning into zombies and chasing other people through vacant streets and buildings. I believe this was a project put together in haste. For instance there is a character who speaks in Korean through out the episodes, nonetheless, every person she meets seem to magically decipher what she is saying, even have full length conversations. Also, a particular fire arm only has 9 bullets, but clearly no one is keeping count and these are the small overlooked details that most audience would find lame. I found Black Summer drags too much, with no purpose, repetitive sequences and focuses on no real drama that such circumstances would usher. It does have the potential to become something so much better

Besides the performances of the actors, the story fails to culminate into something spectacular, The screenplay was stretched out. Its worth watching once nevertheless.

Its cohesive, though the philosophy behind the film isn't fresh. There's good acting, screenplay and editing, an overall decent film.

A flat mundane poorly executed horror flick which has a very few stand out scenes. This movie could have been way better with a bigger budget and a better vision from the director. This movie is definitely not an elite horror movie.
