Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express It had the potential to be both smart procedural, and spiffy action, but [The Attacks of] 26/11 sinks somewhere in the middle. Rated: 2/5 Mar 21, 2019 Full Review Anupama Chopra Hindustan Times The Attacks of 26/11 is a powerful subject watered down by ineffective story-telling. This could have and should have been so much more. Rated: 2.5/5 May 9, 2018 Full Review Anil Sinanan Time Out What's really shocking is that a talented director like Varma has used a real-life tragedy to produce Bolly-gore porn while passing it off as serious cinema. Rated: 1/5 Oct 23, 2017 Full Review Saibal Chatterjee NDTV Unnecessarily verbose at times in the second half. Rated: 2.5/5 May 9, 2018 Full Review J Hurtado ScreenAnarchy A Brutally Violent And Vapid Exercise In Grotesquery Nov 6, 2017 Full Review Simon Foster sbs.com.au A better film might have proved cathartic to a reeling nation; The Attacks of 26/11 just adds insult to the injury.

Audience Member First of all, I don't agree with Rotten Tomatoes 0% rating. Controversial & terrifying concept of "26/11" isn't easy to be made and that also effectively. Yes, this movie could have been more effective but it was still better. Performances of Nana patekar and the guy who played the role of kasab were of next level and they nailed their roles. Overall, its a good movie with a thought provoking conversation. Many people said that this movie is not good but I am sure that no one will not regret watching this. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Any noble intention to bring forward the recount of the bloodcurdling 2008 Mumbai attacks is marred by an over-the-top dramatisation and a facile lecture on religion and holy war. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Could have been so much better. Nana Patekar was the saving grace. Learn how to screw up a movie even after getting potentially explosive topic.Bland. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member I found it interesting that western critics claim that 'a better film might have proved cathartic' or called this 'an explotitative docudrama' whilst Indian film critics generally praised the film as a powerful retelling of a horrific event. It speaks to the degree of misunderstanding we have about horrific acts that can occur anywhere around the world. It is an accurate retelling of a terrible event, with powerful performances from Nana Patekar and Sanjeev Jaiswal. This is a Indian film giving an Indian perspective on a horrific event that occured. Rather than castigate the accurate level of violence portrayed, lets try to appreciate the insight into the healing process that many are still going through. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Seeing the killing felt sad and disappointed. A movie to really watch at least once. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member It could have been a more interesting story if they had more of a plot and given more of a background on the killers, instead of showing (in gory fashion) each kill. Some of the choreography of the attacks were ill-timed and led to unplanned laughter. Recommended only if you like bloodbaths. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
