SEEN 25 AUG
Went in with zero expectations and came out pleasantly surprised. This is exactly the kind of mid-budget entertainer that doesn't get enough credit. No big stunts, no over-the-top drama — just a tightly written family story that earns its emotional beats. The music director deserves special mention, the background score never overstays its welcome. A couple of side characters felt underused, which is a shame given how well they were introduced. The climax wraps things up a little too neatly, but by then you're invested enough not to mind. Definitely one I'd recommend to anyone tired of formulaic mass entertainers.

OTT
Honestly this deserved a much wider release.
Rewatch value on this is higher than I expected.
Some of the VFX was rough but the story carried it.
The lead carried entire stretches of this single-handedly.
Criminally overlooked at the time of release.
Saving this thread, want to revisit after I watch it.

Might be the director's most confident film yet.
Seen it twice now and picked up new details both times.
This is the kind of film that needs a big screen.
Not perfect, but ambitious in ways I appreciated.

The background score did all the heavy lifting in the emotional bits.
Didn't expect this to work as well as it did.

First half is a breeze, second half tests your patience a bit.
