Khoj

I accidently stumbled upon this movie on youtube and since it was so acclaimed I deceied to try it out, the movie starts on a good path but turns into complete trash. This isn't a 'thriller' it is a tragety with no logic whatsoever - two hours of my life I will never get back.

This review comes a little late but then its lasting impact which compelled me to pen down my review even after almost three months of its release itself speaks volumes of the quality of the movie. I had watched #Khoj in the first weekend itself. The movie is an awesome blend of mystery and drama coupled with superb cinematography! The brilliantly crafted narrative did not for once make the audience feel that the director was a debutante. The narrative kept me at the edge of my seat throughout! The film can boast of superb acting by all and special applause goes to Vikram Chatterjee and Shataf Figar. Both of them left a mark with their matured, restrained acting. Kudos to you guys. The dramatic end makes you think and leaves you asking for more. A must-watch for all cine- lovers. For me, Khoj has definitely raised the bar of Bengali movies. Please do watch #Khoj if you haven't yet...else you will miss out on a great movie.

First of all, the reviews and rating are over hyped.

Second, pathetic acting and story telling. Sometimes, I just wanted to stab my self by seeing the pathetic acting.

Third, where was the suspense?

Bengali thrillers can do much better than this. At least get a story first!

The movie was going well even with very simple acting, but somehow the got more idiotic...!! It is very sad to see that such a great thriller it could be, but it became a devastating thriller. Firstly acting was not too good for a bengali thriller, we already saw such bengali thriller like baishe srabon, chatuskon where you just can't tell that acting was not good, But in this movie directing was not that bad, but I am impressed with good music directing, After all it could be a great film, but somehow its lost the track Watch it at least for once because I saw many people like this devastating flim..!! My Review(5.5/10)

Watched the movie and must say it was excellently crafted, putting to use the fantastic locales the film was shot in. The story was gripping, leaving one wondering what would happen next, the mark of a great thriller. The acting of the main characters Sayan Bose and Prashant Chowdhury was outstanding! For a first time movie maker, Arka Ganguly has proved himself a contender in the Bengali movie industry. Congratulations to the entire team of Khoj!
