I wish I felt better tonight, because as a journalist I should be able to do this movie justice, it deserves it!
I went into this movie with low expectations, as a Pewdiepie fan, I'm predisposed against anything out of India that could be from T Series... BUT, right from the very OPENING, I was HOOKED!!! I'm a Metal Music Media Influencer & I own my own Promotions/PR business, & when I heard the first strains of Indian Metal - which you RARELY hear, I KNEW this would be a movie different from the flock!
I hate spoilers, and like I said I'm not feeling well, so I'll be brief, this is a movie told on 2 timelines of 6 friends, and a tragic night that happened 12 years in the past that has affected all of them to this day. You can try tho figure it all out in the flashes they show you at the beginning, God knows I tried, even thought of rewinding and pausing it a bunch of times until I did, but as you go along you understand that even if you DID do that, you COULDN'T understand! The filmmakers PURPOSEFULLY feed you little bits and pieces of information about that nights events, even purposefully give you false information, to build you up then year you down. You won't understand the full picture until the end, so don't try! But what any incredible journey it is! This movie reminds me of reading a REALLY GOOD murder mystery on a stormy school day where you get to stay home! All excitement and build up, and SO WORTH IT, like when Charlie Bucket FINALLY got the golden ticket after like his 6th chocolate bar, & everyone thought the contest was over, THAT kind of worth it - in the end!
