First thing first, be aware that this movie is a 99% remake of the excellent 2-year-old movie L'accusé (2016). Just switch the genders and the Hispanic actors with hindi ones. In August 2019, both movies are available on Netflix but, for some unexplained reason, Netflix does not connect them in the 'more like this' section. That's weird!
Then, is Badla (2019) a bad remake? Objectively and definitely no! I think bad reviews come from anger at seeing a remake without knowing it. And that's fully understandable. You are now officially warned!
Finally, I catch a glimpse of two possibilities: 1) either you have already seen L'accusé (2016) and I kindly invite you to strongly postpone the screening of this remake, unless you unfortunately suffer from Alzheimer or 2) you haven't already seen L'accusé (2016) and you have the choice between a Hispanic atmosphere or a hindi one.

Simply outstanding.
Without wasting time who are reading my review please do watch this mouth watering suspense mystery..2hours of pure class acting by whole cast..
Please go for it.
When you watch a remake of an outstanding movie with some mind-blowing twist in the end and some amazing cinematography and acting, you already have your expectations at the next level. To be really fair, I was awestruck after watching "An invisible guest" and the effect it left after, but I still watched Badla with a neutral mind and gave it a genuine try. But at the end, I felt I just saw a translated version of it's original. It's a screen by screen copy paste along with 90 percent of the dialogues. The only change was the gender. Come on Ghosh ji, use some of your creativity. Why would you just remake the movie exactly the same. Remake doesn't mean copy paste. For instance, look at Don. That's a fab remake, it not only gave justice to it's predecessor but also took it to a different level. For those of you who liked Badla, just watch it's original and you will understand my super disappointment.
Excellent film brilliant performance from the cast enjoyed it from start to finish best film of 2019
Fantastic movie and performance from Amitabh and Tapsee. Keeps you guessing till the end and the plot twists are just brilliant. Do watch it if you have not watched the original!!

- GoofsWhen the police enter the hotel room for the first time, the police officer charges Naina Sethi with murder. The officer has not even seen if the intended murder victim is breathing or not as he is lying face down so how could he know without touching him that the victim is dead. He couldn't charge Naina Sethi without first ascertaining if the victim is dead or not.
