Siddhant Adlakha Variety Seldom probes beyond the surface... But in the process, it finds value as an academic inquiry into familiar moving images by forcing the audience to lean forward and inspect their meaning. Jun 1, 2024 Full Review Philip De Semlyen Time Out If ‘Training Day with more grey areas’ sounds dull, it’s anything but. Rated: 4/5 May 28, 2024 Full Review Lovia Gyarkye Hollywood Reporter This assured sense of direction coupled with controlled performances make Santosh a compelling drama. But it’s Suri’s screenplay that renders the film immersive. May 24, 2024 Full Review Sarah Gopaul Digital Journal There’s a journalistic quality to the narrative as it presents the facts and allows audiences to draw their own conclusions. While a lot of behaviour in the film is contemptable, it isn’t designed to villainize anyone but the killer. Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Christopher Llewellyn Reed Film Festival Today Suri proves skillful at showing the quotidian details that inform this specific world. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 12, 2024 Full Review Alex Billington FirstShowing.net Complex, layered, has plenty to say but also works in harsh truths to think about, while making it compelling to follow the story. Rated: 9/10 Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
