What the critics say
Critics call Darlings a sharp, well-acted dark comedy about domestic violence, with Shefali Shah and Vijay Verma singled out, though several flag a slower, bloated second half and a too-neat or telegraphed climax.

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 6 readings; 4 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.
