Gaslight

The movie was so dark that I and my family had to turn off all the lights to watch the movie. Some parts in the movie are missing and even somethings are there which you cannot understand. The switch of things was very boring. The actions played by everyone was good. There are many things which haven't been ended up nicely. I think it was an average movie. It would be better to not watch it with old people and children. At first it would all seem like it was horror. Everyone was bored of this movie and were looking for some good scenes which would make the picture interesting and good. In short a very average movie.

Sara Ali khan can't act. She just mugs up the dialogues and takes around 100 takes to deliver. So obvious in all her scenes.

No wonder she is best friends with jhanvi kapoor. Both are meant for commercial movies in which they play second fiddle.

Vikrant massey is as usual brilliant.

Akshay Oberoi daper as always. I wish he gets some strong roles.

Same old boring script shot in absolute darkness to give horror or thriller vibes. From starting of the movie you will sense the climax.

Yet another flop where actress fails to lead.

Writing this review is another pain because I have to complete the minimum characters.

Pass!!

If you are bored of feeling healthy you must watch this movie to get eye sprain and headache because hardly I have seen any light in the entire movie. I know that dark seen are being shooted at night only. But they can use small watt bulb at least so that we can watch what is happening in dark. While watching this movie you have to pressurise your eye to get pain in them following by headache. I am totally disappointed after watching it. 3 points are given for story line, the star cast used and role played by them. I heard that this movie was shooted in just 36 days. In such a short time span what can be expected.

Gaslight is a partially engaging, middling horror mystery which doesn't really get you excited or amused. The world building of a horror premise, the errieness of the atmosphere, dark colour grading , intriguing characters all had the potential to make this one a remarkable bollywood horror mystery but unfortunately due to tacky lead performance by Sara and dull second half screenplay makes the brilliant climax lose steam. Chitrangada and Vikrant Massey are formidable in their layered characters. Overall, a satisfactory mystery thriller which can is passable if you can ignore Sara's underwhelming act.

I had hopes for this movie but the story seemed to be written just so Sara can act in a movie. There are just a couple of things in that movie which were good ideas, like the last killing. Overall it is 'not a good mystery' and it does not make any logical sense when things are revealed. As a viewer it seems like you are forced to admire the heroine when the truth comes out which actually feels like bad writing as it is so on the face and isn't done subtly at all. Overall, it feels quite lazily made and doesn't even justify the title. Actually the lantern seemed to be not even a gas one, may be it was electric, but that feels quite deceiving and pretentious then, like the entire movie.
