What the critics say

Critics praise Cargo's original sci-fi premise, inventive world-building and strong lead performances from Vikrant Massey and Shweta Tripathi, but several say the writing stays thin or convoluted, never deepening the emotional connection the story needs.

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 5 readings; 2 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.
