It's really hard to describe how delightful this movie is. I am heartly giving thanks to Author who writes this kind of script so that directors are makings movies and we people can watch this with our families.

Wish i can watch this again and again whenever I feel depressed and whoever feel so.

This movie makes you laugh after end of the day.

This movie gives you some ideas to live.

We can breathe again tomorrow but we cannot wake up in our way.

If you want to see some good movie,are you really looking for a nice and decent valuable movie ? This movie is worth watching.

Don't miss it.

I haven't seen trailer or reviews when I watches this,it's a good story where good things happens.

Hemlock Society is a black comedy directed by Srijit Mukherji and is based on an institution teaching people how to commit suicide successfully. The plot opens up with a melodious song being performed in a typical Kolkata pub and captures the essence of the nightlife of city of joy. Plot development is slow but magnetic till the first half of the movie and after that it becomes somewhat predictable. Parambrata Chaterjee has played his part pretty well as the male lead and for some reasons I think Koyel Mullick was not a great choice for the female lead but given the budget constraints it is an acceptable choice and ultimately worked for the movie. Roopali Ganguly and Dipanker Dey have acted well and the well-balanced chemistry between them as a couple is one of the best points of the movie. Background score was well synchronized with the scenes and the integrated emotional elements. The plot became thinner in the second half and it would have been better if the movie was cut short 20 minutes. I would have loved it if they have shown more of Kolkata, its food and the vibrant culture. Some of the scenes in the background are witty (such as a suicide note: Thank you for the fish) and shows the director's attention to detail. It is good to see that Indian directors are attempting seriously to make dark comedies and this film takes us closer to that dream.

When I set out to watch "Hemlock Society" , I just came back to Kolkata from a out station and I had no idea about the cast , music etc of the film .Only thing I knew that it was a Srijit Mukherjee film . So I watched that film with open mind .

Concept is no doubt good. Music is nice . But film itself became boring & predictable after interval that I felt running out of theater . Koyel Mullick as Meghna was total disaster. Parambrata as Ananda Kar did a good job.

There are many loopholes in the film. Like Soumitra's Uniform & rank . Indian Air force has White uniform and has no Colonel rank.Few shots which should have been shorter were dragging on unnecessarily.

Srijit Mukherjee's third film doesn't match up with the success of his second. This film can be seen once but if you have missed , well , you are not loosing anything.

If you are not one of those, who love watching romantic films end with a happy scene, then this film is suitable completely for you. Completely a new concept and an excellent work by the director of the movie. Not because I am a Bengali, but truly it is one of the films which is a must watch. Cinematography was good, with great music. the acting was good too. Parambrata, Koel, Dipankar Dey were excellent. I guess the use of Sabyasachi Chakraborty and Soumitra Chatterjee along with Sabitri Chatterjee was not needed for such small roles. some other actors could have been used. Use of such great actors in such small roles means nothing. Even the entry of Jeet in a special appearance was forceful. But overall the film is a success and a must see.

This movie is very essential for teens suffering from depression. This movie teaches to live life despite harsh difficulties. I love it. It's really a coming-of-age theme and different from usual romances. Loved it
