Gurgaon

If you do not want to watch a Bollywood Biggie's movie this weekend, then opt for Anurag Kashyap's small budget movie 'Gurgaon.'

It does not boast of an elaborate star cast and has 'The Gangs of Wasseypur' star Pankaj Tripathi as one of the most prominent actors in the movie, apart from that, rest are talented amateurs striving to leave a mark on the entertainment industry.

But before you plan your evening with the movie, read the reviews to ensure that you do not spoil the weekend getaway!

Hindustan Times

The Movie is a thrilling, dark and twisted story and the director’s understanding of our deep-rooted gender issues. The film also gives us a blunt commentary on the way a rural area was transformed into a cyber hub that Gurgaon is today.

The Hindu

The movie leaves a feeling of overwhelming tragic waste. The conflict zones that are the family and the city of Gurgaon becomes a microcosm for depicting wastelands of all kinds—literal and metaphorical; physical, psychological and emotional.

Scroll

Gurgaon isn’t a mystery – the kidnapper’s identity is revealed early on – but it certainly tries to milk the enigma. Relentlessly grim and morbidly obsessed with the idea of punishment for every action big and small, 'Gurgaon' suffers from an overweening emphasis on producing meaning.

The Times of India

'Gurgaon' begins with a monologue about dropping our civilized appearances and morphing into our true inner beasts. Ironically, the movie doesn’t quite take the leap itself.
