Gaslight

Sara Ali khan can't act. She just mugs up the dialogues and takes around 100 takes to deliver. So obvious in all her scenes.

No wonder she is best friends with jhanvi kapoor. Both are meant for commercial movies in which they play second fiddle.

Vikrant massey is as usual brilliant.

Akshay Oberoi daper as always. I wish he gets some strong roles.

Same old boring script shot in absolute darkness to give horror or thriller vibes. From starting of the movie you will sense the climax.

Yet another flop where actress fails to lead.

Writing this review is another pain because I have to complete the minimum characters.

Pass!!

I had hopes for this movie but the story seemed to be written just so Sara can act in a movie. There are just a couple of things in that movie which were good ideas, like the last killing. Overall it is 'not a good mystery' and it does not make any logical sense when things are revealed. As a viewer it seems like you are forced to admire the heroine when the truth comes out which actually feels like bad writing as it is so on the face and isn't done subtly at all. Overall, it feels quite lazily made and doesn't even justify the title. Actually the lantern seemed to be not even a gas one, may be it was electric, but that feels quite deceiving and pretentious then, like the entire movie.

Here's a thriller that never grips or thrills. From the first frame to the last this movies is mired in boredom and half away through you just want this to end and whatever little twists that come in the end hardly surprise you.

The story is about this princess played by Sara who is coming home to meet her father after ages and is welcomed by her step mom (Chitrangada) and the manager (Massey). But the father is no where to seen and her quest to figure out where he is begins. There is this distant annoying cousin, a police SP with some jump scare scenes to get your attention but unfortunately neither of the characters and scenes engage with you. And as mentioned above by the time the mystery is solved you hardly bother and just want this stupidity to end. The story and screenplay have no depth and direction is super weak.

Performances wise Massey does well along with Chitrangada who looks stunning in some scenes and emotes well. Sara as the main protagonist is completely bland and has nothing much to offer in this not so well written character.

So overall an avoidable fare ! Thank good they have not chosen the theatre route for this one or perhaps they knew.

The movie was so dark that I and my family had to turn off all the lights to watch the movie. Some parts in the movie are missing and even somethings are there which you cannot understand. The switch of things was very boring. The actions played by everyone was good. There are many things which haven't been ended up nicely. I think it was an average movie. It would be better to not watch it with old people and children. At first it would all seem like it was horror. Everyone was bored of this movie and were looking for some good scenes which would make the picture interesting and good. In short a very average movie.

After watching this movie people will say sara " tum hume pareshan karne lagi ho 😂". Nothing new in the movie .movie is predictable. Massey also act same in all the movies. Chitrangada is good.rest everything is mediocre.skip it no need to watch.even saif asked sara to take acting class after watching the movie....set is good why Rahul dev is there don't know. Skip the movie no need to watch ....like ayushman and Rajkumar Rao , vikrant Massey is also doing propoganda driven movies now a days His acting is same almost In all his shows and movies.

He needs to add some variations in his acting..
