Neeyat

When you have a script ready of legends like Agatha christie all u need is a genuine approach to the plot,but seeking the inspiration the director try to play over smart with a new idea of shadowing the detective characters with cheap flash back and keeping multiple twist and turns towards the climax which spoils the plot... Seashore Castle,thunder storm,potential cast and crews sidelined by brilliant camera and some Crispy editing too are wasted efforts die to the oversmart approach of the director... And even after post credit the plot hints a sequel possibilty of another cat and mouse game which is not necessary either... Overall a onetime passable flick.

The production values of this film NEEYAT were extremely poor and so was the quality of the acting of the entire star cast includingVidya Balan and especially Rahul Bose. It was like watching a primary school play on a giant sized screen.

Ram Kapoor was an absolute misfit as his personality was absolutely zero and his acting was 1000 times worse than that. Vidya Balan was a faint shadow of her normal brilliant self. Rahul Bose's character was extremely weak and thus his acting was way. Over the top. Everything about this movie was substandard. Definitely not worth watching in the cinema!

4/10.

This is as bad as anything I've ever seen. Horrid characters, production design and writing. Why did Vidiya agree to doing this garbage? Who's funding this garbage and why?

What a terrible mix of characters, the narrator is literally reading out who they are without any effort being put into establishing them. The casting is one of the worst I've ever seen.

If knifes out had a bad hangover after drinking desi daru this would be it.

I really hope someone at Amazon puts in more effort on the content instead of this garbage.

Watch it at your own risk and keep some alcohol nearby because it's going to be needed.

Film Review: Neeyat Streaming on Prime Video

An eccentric billionaire with a tarnished image throws a birthday party at a remote castle in Scotland for a select group of friends & family members. Things don't go as planned and people start dropping dead. It is then up to a mysterious detective Mira Rao (Vidya Balan) to piece together the clues and reveal the truth.

This is similar to films like Agatha Christie's "And there were none" "Gumnaam", "Knives Out " and other similar films. Nothing new in the story.

Cast is good with Ram Kapoor as the billionaire AK, Rahul Bose , Neeraj Kabi , Shahana Goswami, Nicky Aneja, Dipannita Sharma and others doing a decent job.

With a runtime of around 130 minutes, the film tends to drag a bit, especially the first half.

The real action starts in the second half and ends decently. Not bad !!

However the script has nothing new to offer and lack of real jump scare moments with a heart pounding BGM are sorely missed.

All in all a timepass one time watch on OTT !!

Going with 2.5/5 for this one .. Adios 🙂!!

I normally don't write reviews but this cheap copy of( knives out + and then there were none) was so massive disaster, i couldn't help my self.

First of all if you see a movie released over ott and yet have 'intermission' slide in between then it's clearly made for big screen but at the end they decided that money given to distributers will be totally waste as this movie won't recover a dime. Thus, they choose the cheapest available ott platform to distribute. So be aware of such movies.

Vidhya balan was a bad choice for lead. I mean they had shefali shah done a cameo. Instead they could've gone with her for lead role then movie could've been bit more watchable.

You will enjoy till intermission but after that it goes to downhill way fast. This is problem in general with bollywood... countless movies in recent history which failed miserably have actually a decent first half but somehow second half is always feels rushed.

Watch this on your own risk.
