Neeyat

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 🙂!!

It is good thriller, mystery, movie to enjoy with family,the move feel little slow in first half ,but the end has given a good twist , The starting of movie gives you the knives out feel ,they have shown all the relationship of victim and given everyone a good reason to kill the victim,the Vidya Balan acting is awesome like always ,we your finding a good thriller ,mystery movie to watch with your family with not much stress then this is the movie for you ,the story shown is good enough to make you hold for next 2 hours 15 minutes ,some characters should given have a good background story ,it is descent movie.

Extremely bad copy of Knives Out. The film starts with bad acting all across and ends with bad acting. Even Rahul Bose acted so bad, it was a big surprise. Its really bad. Its so bad you will feel like crying once it ends. Vidya Balan tries to keep it afloat but alas she was not able to save it alone. I dont how an actor like Vidya Balan agreed to do such movie with such a bad cast. Every cast just tried too hard in this movie but every one of them fell flat on their face. At the end, Vidya suddenly became this superdetective, even better than Sherlock Homes. This movie had high expectations but it dissappointed so bad.

If you have watched Knives Out then first thought while watching this movie will be that it is adapted version or you can say simply copied but it can't be (that movie was really good).

Even Vidya Balan cannot save this film with her acting skills because director must have thought of something else.

Movie opens with introduction of all characters which is way longer than required. Most murder mystery either opens or after 10-15 minutes someone dies than all detective things happens but it took more than 1hr till interval in this movie to start with something. Many of the movie important parts were too much predictive that you would ruin your whole mood of thriller.

Except Neeraj Kabi no one has performed up to mark not even Vidya Balan (fans its my views only).

Direction was this much bad that you would not recommend it to anyone.

Not a WORTH WATCH!!!

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.
