This film is a fascinating character study that should resonate with those willing to overlook its occasional clunky narrative.

This Taapsee Pannu-starrer is gripping edge of seat thriller…The artistic values in this film are incredible. There’s no reliance on cheesy jump scares, just pure dread and atmosphere.

Overall, in spite of the ensemble of some good performers, ‘Bharat’ is cursed by a mundane script and forceful attempt to get the entire audience in tears. It is a film that seems signposted as a vehicle to attract attention for its committed leading star Salman Khan, but thanks to the team behind it it ends up as a vehicle that never gets out of first gear.

The oddly structured film never goes beyond a surface look at Modi’s political career.

Despite its bright premise and superlative cast, the Akiv Ali directorial isn’t as smart as it aspires to be.

The Karan Johar produced film is silly and formulaic with stock characters who are just pretty to ogle.

It’s a superhero film that really understands that compelling characters and strong emotions are both far more important than spectacle.

Actors known to be unfailingly effective find themselves being placed on slippery ground as they struggle with their lines of pick-axe bravado.

While the story does lack an intellectual plot to make this intriguing enough, John Abraham carries the film on his shoulders.

The lack of a creative driver behind the film leads to a level of fundamental dissatisfaction.
