What the critics say

Critics praise Kunchacko Boban's performance and an intriguing, well-crafted first half built around a cop's psychological unraveling and a cursed cold case, but most say the mystery's final explanation and climax turn generic, overstuffed or melodramatic, undercutting the payoff.

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 10 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.
