If only The Girl on the Train was as invested in its potential as it is in Parineeti Chopra's kajal in the film...

Ultimately, this movie was more frustrating than bad. And it ended up leaving me with a total apathy about what happens in a murder-mystery movie, which is a complete failure of the movie itself.

Parineeti Chopra performs as though she were a Bollywood fan imitating her favourite stars instead of being an artist who truly inhabits a character...

An averagely-amusing breezy thriller from 2015, turned into an averagely-amusing breezy thriller for now, you have to ask yourself...why? A movie I did not imagine seeing twice...an overly-sentimental mess, manufactured and fake.

As the narrative twists pick up speed, the plot starts to unravel and we're left with a resolution that seems both stunningly predictable and deeply disappointing.

Acting was really bad all around, storyline was half thought out, poorly executed

One of the standout elements of the movie is its exploration of themes like trauma, guilt, and obsession. Parineeti's portrayal of Mira's vulnerability and determination is compelling and empathetic. The film's pacing is well-executed, maintaining a balance between suspenseful moments and emotional depth. Overall, "The Girl on the Train" is a must-watch for fans of psychological thrillers.

Sad to see another disappointing Indian film on an OTT platform. Performances are average and the movie is not anywhere near the English version made around 5 years back. The trailer made it look exciting but the writing makes it look like they're trying to hard to show it off as a Hollywood-ish film. I hope OTT platforms really improve their Indian content in terms of films, because we have seen good TV series over past 2-3 years, but the films just aren't good enough. Parineeti could do so much better if she was just trying to be honest to herself and the character, versus trying to meet expectations in terms of filling someone else's boots. For all other actors (apart from Parineeti), the performances are okay but then all other issues of the film kind of overshadow anything good that they were trying to provide.

Oh this was bad. Added material that was not needed in the story line. Completely missed the mark and did not understand the source material. Watch the 2016 girl on the train instead.

Horrible movie. More plot holes than craters on the moon. I could act better.

it takes a special kind of talent to carbon copy something and screw it up.
