Movie Reviews

Film Companion Reviews - 8/10 by Anupama ChopraThis film will seep into your skin. Hours later, I was thinking about Shutu and his scars, including the ones he leaves behind.
The Times of India - 7/10 by Nihit BhaveA Death In The Gunj will make you drop your jaw several times, except for the one time you'd really want it to: the climax.
Cinema Scope - 7/10 by Alysia UrrutiaA Death in the Gunj is a fine character study underpinned by a thorough understanding of group dynamics, and as such manages to be both specifically Indian and universal.
The Hindu - 7/10 by Namrata JoshiSpecial word then for Vikrant Massey, the beautiful boy who lays bare the innocence, sensitivity, vulnerability and torment of Shutu with such fluidity that it's hard to imagine any other actor owning the role.
Hindustan Times - 6/10 by Rohit VatsA Death In The Gunj totally relies on acting skills of a stellar cast.
Reuters - 6/10 by Shilpa JamkhandikarA Death in the Gunj is wonderfully observed, stunningly shot and thanks to Massey's breakout performance, a must-watch in theatres.
User Review - 8/10 by Abhishek TCertainly not a masterpiece but a laudable debut effort makes it for necessary viewing. The style of direction reminded me of old school Hitchcock mixed with Fincher,. Hitchcock due to simplicity yet assurance of camera, tight close ups of characters yet wide-angle situating shots of the location as if location itself is a character in the plot as well as a slow, palpable build of suspense. The Fincher in this is clearly the character driven plot with subtexts and subtlety coupled with realistic madness of action. The acting in the movie is fantastic and for that alone, it is worth the watch. What the movie did lack was a powerful punch or continuous engagement. It was too end-heavy despite being highly character driven.
