Neeyat

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.

Review: Neeyat, directed by Anu Menon, is a Hindi film streaming on Amazon Prime Vedeo, an inspiration from Agatha Christie mysteries and Rian Johnson's Knives Out movie.

Elements of this movie is Mystery suspense & drama.

Anu Menon tried to make this film for mass appeal, with Vidya Balan in the lead role, supported by talented actors Ram Kapoor, Neeraj Kabi, Rahul Bose, Shefali Shah in a cameo role , Shasank Arora, Nikki Walia & Prajakta Koli a popular YouTuber. Despite all capable actors, reinvention of the mystery in a gathering genre, is not so impactful. It should have been delivered with more brilliance.

Niyat is not a well-crafted movie. Vidya Balan fails to make her impact, rather Rahul Bose steals the shows. Resembling Ram Kapoor as a Vijay Mallya is good.

Location is something awesome with beautiful Camera work.

On the whole, despite too many loopholes this Film engaged you throughout. Theme song is well composed with good lyrics.

My rating is 2.5 out of 5.

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.

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 🙂!!

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.
