What the critics say
A wildly inventive black-magic-on-Trump premise gets praise for JD Chakravarthy and Sree Vishnu, but critics agree the writing, pacing and comedy mostly fail to land, leaving only scattered laughs.

Derived by Filmi
32
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 4 readings; 3 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.
