I recently finished watching Don’t Come Home, a six-episode series that, despite its promise of a compelling storyline, fell short of my expectations. The premise initially seemed intriguing, especially with the introduction of a time travel element midway through. However, this concept quickly spiraled into confusion, ultimately detracting from the story. The time loop, which plays a central role, is poorly explained and lacks coherence. A key question—how does Varley give birth to herself?—is left unanswered, and the logic behind the loop feels forced. There’s an attempt to explore the classic “chicken or the egg” paradox, but it’s executed in a way that feels irrelevant and underdeveloped. The series had potential to delve into a more meaningful exploration of time travel. However, the story ends up tangled in a web of inconsistencies, making it difficult to follow and ultimately frustrating. A better-constructed time loop could have added depth, but instead, it introduces more questions than answers, leaving viewers with too much to process and too little clarity. Don’t Come Home could have been something more, but its ambitious ideas are unfortunately overshadowed by flawed execution.

Wouldn’t call it a total waste of time. There were a few shortcomings in the movie, but it also had the essence of a typical Bollywood movie which was loosely trying to portray a woke and Western belief. They could have given more screen time to the actress. The message that the movie was trying to give of is actually a pretty good one, and it didn’t fail to explain both the sides of the story although in the end, the entire family kneeling down and proposing seemed unusual and weird. Ranbir‘s role and acting no offence seemed like a repetitive monologues. However, Shraddha’s acting was impressive she could portray the emotions of her character well. I think this is by far the best attempt Bollywood has ever made to portray a typical romcom movie with Desi tadka I wouldn’t call the movie a must watch but would definitely recommend if you have a lot of time to kill

I didn’t expect the reviews to be bad . When I watched this movie it was predictable like any other horror movie but it also had a touch of psychological essence that arose anxiety when watching the movie . Moreover it is an excellent metaphor of how trauma never heals we just hide it under our smiles and suppress it . Excellent cinematography. I also found the concept of the movie very creative as it was visibly successful in making people uncomfortable
