Featured reviews
I saw this few days back after 6 years of its release cos my daughter booked the tickets of part 2.
Honestly, the movie has terrific acting by Rajkumar Rao. He is a treat to watch. His comic timing is amazing.
The movie has ample amount of hilarious moments but the scare factor is very mild.
Pankaj Tripathi also gave a memorable performance.
The small town's narrow lanes, dimly lit alleys, etc are all reminiscent of Hammer horror movies.
Apart from scare factor, the makers didn't bother to put emphasis on the cinematography. A good horror movie needs good atmosphere.
Also there were not enuff kills. In fact nobody dies.
The twist/end was predictable.
Let's enjoy part 2 on big screen on Independence Day, God willing.
Jai Hind.

A very well mixture of comedy and horror. Remarkable acting of all actors. I had to close my eyes at some point in the movie. Full package of entertainment.
The story and suspence are good.. the main male artist is very good but shrada is not able to fit in her character...the story is interesting and you expect a very good movie but a certain moment the script takes a twist and spoil the film
A zany supernatural parable that is both strongly feminist and uproariously funny, Stree, Amar Kaushik's self-assured first feature, delivers shocks and laughs in equal measure. Despite its repeated to-ing and fro-ing between conflicting tones, the horror comedy glides along a firm and steady arc almost all through its runtime of two hours and a bit.
The film's fear quotient, like its comic flourishes, varies pretty wildly - in the climatic moments, it even wobbles just a touch - but the sight of fully grown men cowering in panic at the very mention of the spectral figure who gives the film its title is always hilarious, even when it tilts towards the terrifying.

Can't really tell because both of the genre's was perfectly used in the movie. which makes it awesome and worth your every bit of your money.
A must See movie this year.
