Baby John bids fair to claim the title of the worst film of 2024, a year when big, starry Bollywood tanked well and truly.

Rated: 1/5

Varun Dhawan in a flashy, twisty, exhaustingly extravagant Hindi actioner.

Baby John is no doubt engaging, but what the film lacks is crisp storytelling.

Rated: 3/5

Baby John is a creaky, scrappy and hopelessly disjointed movie that looks for inspiration in all the wrong places.

Rated: 2/5

The Hindu

The faithful adaptation of Vijay’s ‘Theri’ has its mass moments but the action drama suffers from an excess of manufactured sound and fury, signifying box office pressure

It’s depressing that something designed as copaganda ended up cheering on vigilante justice. Baby John would have been much better if it had managed to do only one or the other.

Pathetic does not even begin to describe it. Walked out of the movie with a headache. No plot line, horrible acting, and even worse direction. The saving grace was some of the action sequences and Keerthys songs. Complete waste of 3 hours. Save your money!
