Leave your thoughts about NH10.
| FilmfareRachit GuptaIt's good to watch a woman who's more level headed than her better half. Who can smoke a cigarette just for the sake of having one. Who can drive a car better than any tom, dick or harry in Delhi. And one who doesn't take things lying down. |
| Gulf News (UAE)Manjusha RadhakrishnanAnushka Sharma and her co-stars are ferociously good in this succinct thriller. |
| ReutersShilpa JamkhandikarNH10 scares, thrills and entertains throughout its 115 minutes. It also suggests that Bollywood finally might have turned a corner this year, and is ready to churn out films that more faithfully reflect the country we inhabit -- the whole country. |
| Hindustan TimesRohit VatsNH10 displays a great potential and then fails to capitalise on it. |
| OutlookNamrata JoshiThe film loses out on complexity by opting for a way too easy narrative: the rural brutes vs us, the city slickers. |
| GuardianFaiza S. KhanElitism aside, the sheer monotony of almost every poor person being evil really bogs down the narrative. |
| User ReviewBasu Knice movie with good acting and some part is actually based on true story |
| User ReviewNiraj V"NH10" is a very well made movie and one that hits you hards in the guts figuratively speaking! Wat is very very pleasing is that Anushka Sharma,although she accepts in horrible Hindi movies(except "PK" of course)has chosen to make a very good and sensible movie.Her acting in her movie was brilliant among the other actors who also did a very good job.The movie is a bit graphic in nature so I figure that kids should not see same and the females should go with their...... PS.Thankfully Anushka's lips are back to normal. |
| User ReviewSuvo PNavdeep Singh's NH10 is a gritty, intense and well-directed revenge saga that you do not get to see in India very much. Having all the usual tropes of a typical revenge saga - the brutality of tormentors, the helplessness of the protagonist, and finally the protagonist's realization that the revenge is the only thing they can take from the ordeal; the film still stands out on its own. The film starts with a slight hint of noir but quickly changes pace and becomes an all engaging 'plans-gone-wrong' story that would captivate you from start to beginning. There is violence, there are socio-political elements that we are aware of and there are good performances. Especially, Anushka Sharma does her best as the female protagonist of the film. If you can bottle down the violence you see, this film is certainly something you do not want to miss. |
| User ReviewAditya MTechnically these are mild spoilers, but I don't think I am revealing anything critical when I summarize the plot thus: Married couple living in Gurgaon leave for a birthday getaway outside the city. On the road, they get mixed up in something they aren't supposed to and end up on the run from some very dangerous people. Husband and wife get separated from each other (and from their car) and have to fend for themselves in the dark, off-highway wilderness. This maybe a standard thriller template, but it is somewhat new ground for Hindi cinema. It isn't what makes 'NH10' stand out though. I remember reading somewhere that of the so-called five elements of storytelling (plot, character, theme, conflict and setting), the last is most often the neglected cousin. I've found this to be true, and the corollary is that books or films that use setting successfully tend to endure well in memory. 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' springs to mind as an example. Navdeep Singh's film may not go down in history on par with Arthur Conan Doyle's best Sherlock Holmes novel, but I can't think of a Hindi film that has used its setting better, transforming the sinister rural badlands of Gurgaon into a character in themselves. In a narrow sense, this is a traditional slasher film where the heroine has to outrun, outwit and outlive her pursuers, but what separates 'NH10' from much of the pack is its added depth: the film is also in some way about an urban and modern India that is zooming along the highway, but can't avoid colliding in uncomfortable ways with the traditions of a past it is still living in. |
