Namrata Joshi Reviews Outlook

It does not descend into crass- and crudeness, nor does it overtly use double entendres when it could have easily done so. Vicky Donor is unapologetic, unadulterated fun.

Interesting social observations don’t necessarily a good film make

Beyond the loud slapstick, it does have interesting situational humour but it gets more kiddish than genuinely mad

Feels like a rerun of Vishesh Films’ Jannat. Much too insipid. Cliches abound

Leaves one feeling curiously detached, distanced, often utterly befuddled.

The first half has some genuinely scary and sinister moments, but the ending feels more clumsy than menacing

It is rooted, rustic and raw, with an authenticity of terrain, characters, lingo and emotions

Works mainly because it’s plausible, engaging, fresh and tugs quietly at the heart-strings

Half-baked and slipshod, looks terribly dated and very loosely edited

Agneepath is cinema of excess
