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 Devesh Sharma Filmfare The Diplomat might not be for the “bang, boom, pow” crowd, but for those looking for a diplomatic thriller that dials down the violence and cranks up the tension, it's worth a watch. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Sukanya Verma Rediff.com The possibilities of this serviceable thriller are immense but the makers prefer to play it safe and hold back the daredevil in the diplomat's clothing. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Anuj Kumar The Hindu The elaborate disclaimer is more intricate than the storyline. It tries to bind our viewing experience into a series of dos and don’ts, but what one eventually experiences is not in sync with the disclaimer’s logic. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Based on a true story about an Indian woman seeking an embassy rescue from her abusive Pakistani husband, The Diplomat tends to portray the heroes and villains as two-dimensional. This drama is still very compelling. Mar 16, 2025 Full Review Saibal Chatterjee NDTV ...[The Diplomat] as a whole, it gets just about everything right. And that, needless to say, is no mean feat. Rated: 3/5 Mar 14, 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 Neel N John is very powerful and very sharp. Suspense and thrilling. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review PRACHI A My expectations were little more from this movie when I watch the trailer, but as I was watching the movie. I was little disappointed from the dialogue’s actually because actors performing great. Overall experience was great. The story was great, but the writing or the dialogues were something which was missing there in few places. It feels like the punchline was very nice, but the timing was very off. Like at the last scene, people were trying to stop them at the airport and our actress gave him a good punch by her dialogue, but when it came to John Abraham’s dialogue at the end. When he walked back, there was something like he was going to say something very great or something very nice, but it just missed the timing or punchline something happened there.Again when they were sitting in the table, the four of them and again that punch line which was put in the trailer was amazing, but When it came to the movie seen, the line was meaningless, like there was no support. Why was that dialogue was actual used. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/29/25 Full Review Aditya S It's not perfect, but it's a step in the right direction for bollywood. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Barninee N One of the best movies is The Diplomat by John Abraham. I loved it. It's worth watching.
