Film did lot of things right and lot of things wrong!! TL;DR FIrst half was stretchy for me, and i disliked it mostly but how second half used the concept and made smartly written movie in no time, they tried and did well with the twists in interval to climax. only second half redeemed the movie for me otherwise first half was full of cliches. 7.5/10 Detailed review:- First i want to mention, i watched it in original language as i am not a native speaker, so i took help of subtitles. I heard lot of good things about this movie, so i had more than decent amount of expectations. First half follows the basic loop movie cliches and kept dragging it, which felt slow cause of bad screenplay and unengaging characters..... Loop is one of my favourite genre but the first half uses that in the worst way possible, cause after watching dozens of loop movie, i never disliked the part where the loop begins for the protagonist. They had gold in their hands but they made a dirt cleaner with it. i didn't hated it at all or it was boring to watch, i'm just disappointed because of the potential. few more negative points:- -Bad action scenes -Comedy didn't worked for me, except the scene where SJ was convincing the politician to not kill the lead guy, lol -no depth in characters other than lead actor and villain Now second half: It is opposite than the most loop movies, they have the best starting and mid climax ending. The way i was disappointed from the first half, second half redeemed the movie for me and started to root for the protagonist and hooked till the end, twists were brilliantly placed that's why liked the writing of second half and did proper justice to the concept <3. second half was 9/10
