What the critics say

Critics call it a fresh, terrific ensemble piece carried by its huge debutant cast, inventive action staging and dark humour, though one reviewer flags two scenes that treat disturbing conduct too casually.

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 3 readings; 1 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
