I went in blind without much plot reading or trailers. All i knew was Channing Tatum was a villain here and i was sold. His performance was definitely so much better than his dancer and action star or the dumb hot guy.. he had a lot of depth in his performance but some of that was overdone and in the climactic scene he didn't had much monologue. Positive sides, 1. The performance from the underrated cast members was really phenomenal. I've never seen forgotten actors like slater and the kid from sixth sense in a movie for a while now. And the guy from scary movie also had a good opportunity being in a serious role. But let's face it it's the strong women who shines. 2. The cinematography was also fantastic being a well known celebrity figure and Hollywood baby she's got good contacts. And it showed the editing was pretty good too other than a few scenes. Color grading was perfect. 3. The sound design also had a good feel to it and the pacing with the background was also done well. 4. Very unique yet familiar story where rich people do whatever they want to in their private island. But the forgetting thing was quite interesting. But massive missed opportunity on how they did it and who were their other victims is still a mystery. Negatives, The more I watched the more i felt like damn i wish Ari aster or M night shamaylan or Jordan Peele directed this they would've done amazing. The story is something they could do hella crazy things with. But it's a story about female abuse and violence so a woman directing it makes sense. She definitely has proven herself with this directorial debut. Otherwise i think the first half was definitely a well paced because i liked sinking to the world of this island. I didn't watch it to dissect and analyze each frame I simply enjoyed the progression of the story. And things definitely unfolded well. The tension building was also well done. Overall I felt what she was trying to do. People can complain or whatever but for a first time director you'll miss a couple of stuff but fix those mistakes later on. I truly hope to see more from her she's quite capable. Summary: Love the premise and storyline but a different director could've done better.

Well believe it or not i actually didn't see the trailer but saw it on SWIGGY app as an advert 😂 so i took my mother to the cinemas to watch it at Christmas eve. Initially i was excited to see something from the director of Jawan. But Varun's character overall wanted to be comedic and serious at the same timand I wasn't a fan ofan

It's definitely a good portrayal of society and some stereotypical boundaries being broken. It's definitely new and different so people are afraid that their children may also be influenced while the movie shows the real picture of our society and it's based on real life events.
