A young man's desire to do well sets him on a journey from ordinary citizen to superhero vigilante.

Udita Jhunjhunwala

The film's flaw is that it's trying to say too much and doing so at such a painful pace that much of a good intention is lost in execution.

Rated: 2.5/5

In the film the issue feels too flat and tame. Somewhere Motwane gets too self-aware and conscious-be it the genre of superhero cinema he is playing with or the issue of corruption itself. The point gets belaboured and the film too protracted.

The Indian Express

Thrillingly staged, effortlessly relatable and endearingly sincere, Bhavesh Joshi remains one of Hindi cinema's most unfairly overlooked recent gems.

An atmospheric, dark and grounded film that could perhaps be told at a slightly faster and more powerful pace, but still uses its superhero approach freshly enough to shed some light on real-life grievances.

Rated: 7/10

The third act of the film is essentially a lesson in misdirection...

To call Bhavesh Joshi Superhero a lost opportunity is a gross understatement. To compare it to the other genre misfires from this country would be a disservice to its aspirational tone.

Bhavesh Joshi is indeed a great movie! The color palette is striking, and the music director, Amit Trivedi, perfectly complements the intense scenes. His score elevates the film's emotional impact.

The movie could have received higher ratings from both critics and the general audience if Rajnikant had been cast and fight scene from South cinema had been included. Indian audience has a deep fetish for unbelivable fight scenes, an item song, and a malnourished lead defeating villains twice their size and sending them flying across field of view. For me and my friends personally, this movie is memorable and worth watching. Everything from writing, cinematography, casting, editing, and musical score is applauding.

The critics are high on this one. The general public just wants the Krish and Pushpa type of absolute garbage they produce. The movie isn't bad, the audience is just stupid. A person with even a decent taste would enjoy the movie. Indian audience is far behind the general audience over the world. I don't sat the movie is perfect per se, but definitely a must watch
