Overall, while the film is good in all respects, it is still not the Spielberg film one pines for.

At the end, the film does manage to keep you at the edge of your seat as you empathise with the plight of the victims.

A pretentious creative fantasy…An atypical, funny and amusing art house film about an art house, specifically a pretentious Stockholm museum devoted to progressive modern art…

It takes a lot of will-power to stand back and let the corrupt steal the thunder from the incorruptible. Raid tells us virtuosity may be boring. But it is still a rare bird worth capturing in the palm of your hand.

Overall, this film surrounded by almost no hype, is a pleasant surprise as it entertains you completely and keeps you riveted to the screen.

Overall, an intelligent viewer would initially dismiss the film as a lazily penned plot with banalities and plot-holes galore, but then the writers cheekily and astutely wrap up the film… At some points, it makes you say, “Ah, I did not see that coming.”

Overall, Hate Story IV is an engrossing tale despite its predictability.

The film is fast-paced, emotionally honest, well-performed and intelligently structured.

Technically with ace production values, the film is aesthetically mounted. Overall, the film is entertaining and is a brilliant character study of an efficient spy.

When he perishes his false eye does a little dance of death on the floor. Like a child that will have its way even if the mother must be mortified in the process.
And yes, we will never inhale the scent of an agarbatti in the same away again.
