SEEN 10 SEPT
The first half had me completely hooked — the pacing, the humor, the way the conflict was set up. Then the second half arrives and it's like a different director took over. The love track slows everything down right when the momentum was building. There's a solid message film buried in here somewhere, but it keeps getting interrupted by unnecessary songs. The lead does a genuinely good job carrying scenes that don't deserve the effort he's putting in. Technically the film is polished — the cinematography in the flashback portions especially stood out. I wanted to love this more than I did. Still worth a watch for the performances alone.

Took a while to get going but absolutely worth it.
I had a slightly different reaction but I see where you're coming from.
First half is a breeze, second half tests your patience a bit.
The writing is sharper than people gave it credit for.
Been going back and forth on watching this, your review tipped it.

Caught this on OTT last night, your review was spot on.
Watched it FDFS and the theatre response was something else.
Underrated performance from the supporting cast here.
Hard disagree on the rating but I respect the write-up.
Been recommending this to everyone who'll listen.
Seen it twice now and picked up new details both times.
Saving this thread, want to revisit after I watch it.
Went in with zero expectations and came out grinning.
A rare one that respects the audience's intelligence.
