Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express ...there’s enough tension, despite the occasional chest-thumping and the flag-waving and the basic story-telling, to keep us with the film. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 14, 2025 Full Review Ishmeet Nagpal Common Sense Media This Indian political drama tells an engaging story based on true events, but the execution is uneven. May 27, 2025 Full Review Steve Morrissey Radio Times The Diplomat is well-paced, and it tackles some important issues, but its sense of jingoism proves entirely resistible. Rated: 2/5 May 23, 2025 Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express In a regular movie, John Abraham's titular character would've been a supporting presence who shows up in the final 10 minutes. But in The Diplomat, he exists to rob the female heroine of her agency. May 22, 2025 Full Review Tatsam Mukherjee The Wire (INDIA) 'The Diplomat' wants to be 'Argo' but Ends up Catering to the 'Kerala Story' Audience Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Surya Komal Just for Movie Freaks The Diplomat is an ambitious film that falls short in execution. Rated: 2.75/5 Apr 2, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Mickey13 Action packed entire movie . There was no intermission . Could have used to slow my heart rate ! Good acting. The subtitles were not that hard too manage. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Google Amazing movie ! Must watch ! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Mona S A well-directed movie that stays true to its story. Really appreciate how the lead actress was portrayed realistically, without trying to make her look glamorous like many movies do today. Even though the movie had to show some painful moments and physical torture, it was done respectfully, without being vulgar (like most of Alia movies cannot end without a hot scene, even in Raazi). The courtroom scenes were impactful and not overdone. Overall, a clean, thoughtful film. I loved it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/20/25 Full Review Rachana R Jai hind jai hind❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/11/25 Full Review Niranjan D Acting is average to below average, but a riveting movie for sure. Great story that everyone should know about. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/01/25 Full Review Gk S Pretty good movie and maintained the tempo all thru.
