Teen Patti
Critic reviews and ratings
-
The second half does get somewhat repetitive, with the film refusing to move out of the gambling dens and the climax gets somewhat hurried. But majorly, the film holds as a taut thriller that keeps you glued for most of the screen time.
-
Surprisingly ingenious and resonant,Teen Patti is not so much about the cards that are dealt on the table as the one that destiny doles out in places where the human eye and desire cannot reach.
-
Watch it for its casting, a young set of actors who deliver and a script that captivates.
-
...the narrative is such that it caters to the intelligentsia mainly. For the average moviegoer, thirsting for entertainment, it has little to offer.
-
A stylish attempt definitely, but it goes wrong horribly towards the end. Such big money and great actors are not put to optimum use, thanks to a flawed script.
-
The script doesn't evolve, it just jumps jerkily from one level to another so that the director can take her story to a predictable end.
-
...ends up being the kind of gamble that’s no big deal.
-
...the film isn’t as cool as it thinks it is.
-
...is no mind game. It could have been. Had it not folded the game's nuances out of sight or been blind the psyche of the players.
-
The trouble with `Teen Patti’ is not that we’re all too familiar with its central idea. It lies in the patchy way the plot is laid out, and in the characters who do not, at any point, feel completely filled out.
-
The direction of Leena Yadav is certainly an improvement on her last flick ‘Shabd’, but uneven writing seems to be her undoing here. Even the pace in the second half of the flick is very slow and the flick refuses to move out of gambling dens.
-
...a slick and stylish film with many stars, fancy styling, big budget but little substance and very convoluted logic. Part of the film is in English, part of it is in algebra and the rest seems gobbledygook.
-
...is a train-wreck of a movie. It's incoherent, lengthy and worst of all, agonisingly pretentious.
-
...there is no math in the pedestrian ‘teen patti’ either. They’re merely Diwali card-games played on Dutch bravado and pointed bluff.
-
is an incoherent mess of logic-defying scenes that never come together as a fluid script. It's got snazzy camerawork and occasionally hip production design, but none of that matters in the end.
