Namrata Joshi The Hindu 07/18/2018
The parallel investigations around which the film's narrative is built, the move back and forth in time confuses rather than add to the viewers' involvement. Go to Full Review
Owen Gleiberman Variety 04/05/2018
A well-acted Bollywood kidnapping thriller offers an intriguing Indian spin on American crime-movie conventions. Go to Full Review
Mike McCahill Guardian 06/09/2016
3/5
The first half proceeds at such a crawl, even the songs sound like somebody's last gasp. Yet Dasgupta's playing a reasonably intricate long game. Go to Full Review
Anna M.M. Vetticad Firstpost 05/08/2019
An atmospheric Kolkata, a non-stereotypical portrayal of the city and its people, a stirring and suspenseful tale, supporting performances by Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Ghosh's favourite heroine Vidya Balan completed the compelling mix. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
It holds your gaze, and sucks you into the chase, only to shy away and go home with bat and ball once you get too close. At best, the film is an honest attempt at being dishonest... Go to Full Review
Meena Iyer The Times of India 04/05/2018
3.5/5
The film's ability to maintain the suspense right till the end makes it a must-watch for those who like whodunnits. However, a better pace could have lifted this film a notch higher. Go to Full Review

Rosana B 11/01/2022 Bollywood prometendo nada e entregando tudo, um drama policial perfeito, com cada peça se encaixando perfeitamente no decorrer da trama, alternando passado e presente dos crimes idênticos magistralmente, muito bom, uma fala do protagonista o define bem, "se eu o matasse eu teria a minha vingança, mas não teria justiça", uma obra inteligente, bem produzida, apaixonante...

The direction and cinematography have been well used to create an artistic presentation of the story. See more yash b 11/27/2018 "Te3n" is a very good mystery thriller that kept me guessing. The movie is a remake of a well-received Korean film that I have not seen. I enjoyed the strong performances in the movie and the story as well. I was not able to predict the direction the film took in its final act, and I really liked that about it. It is unexpected and an entertaining movie that engrosses you with its story. It takes a little while to get going, but once it does, it never lets up until the credits roll. See more 01/27/2018 Really well-made suspense thriller, the story revolves around a grandfather (Amitabh Bachchan) trying to find the kidnapper of his granddaughter even though it's been 8 years. He tries to sort the help of retired police officer (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) & active ones (Vidya Balan). Adding to the thrill is a new kidnapping having similar circumstances, the suspense and intrigue make it's an intense watch. I did figure out who the kidnapper was midway through the movie, so there is still scope for improvement. Still they had other surprises in store for me with an interesting ending. This is great direction supported by superb casting. All the actors were superb in their performances. See more 04/02/2017 Outstanding by the various experienced actors???? See more Read all reviews
