The movie is actually not bad at all..might be slow at times in the first half..but other than that it's entertaining and sometimes funny also..it's an original..has nothing to do with knives out..the twists are well written..although some are a bit far fetched..i don't see the "gigantic" loop holes some of the reviews were talking about..performances were good enough..Vidya's performance was bang on..although you might be a bit confused by her character watching the movie for the first time..but now in retrospect it makes sense..i think the lgbt stuff made it more foreign to the audience tho..because the genre, location etc are quite foreign
