Maggie Lee Variety 05/15/2018
Kashyap's brilliant five-hour-plus epic is a hard act to follow, and this more pedestrian outing may well disappoint some critics. Still, as genre films go, it's punchy enough to enjoy a charmed life on the fest circuit. Go to Full Review

Don't expect a Hollywood ending - there's no one to champion among this sorry lot of soulless connivers. Go to Full Review
Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter 05/20/2013
A grungy, dark police procedural set in motion by a little girl's kidnapping, Ugly has few discernible auteur touches to set it apart from standard genre fare. Go to Full Review

Ugly is a disappointment, not just because it's a whodunit that sinks like a badly-made souffle but also because we expect better and more of Kashyap. Go to Full Review

You'll probably be confused as to whom to root for by the end of the film, but the answer really is nobody. Kashyap never tries to make you sympathise with any of the characters, thereby making them more real. Go to Full Review

4.75/5
Ugly, in one simple line, is about how we tend to lose greater things in life because we are too stuck on our own perceptions and insecurities. Go to Full Review

12/04/2020 everyone has their own ugly side. See more 11/29/2020 I rearly watch Indian flicks. Actually, this is one of my first films. A girl with divorced parents get's kidnapped. The relationship between the parants are not especially good and it does not help that the policeman that are on the case are dating the mom. This is a pretty fast paced film with many happenings and twists. It has some very funny moments and it's a pretty wild ride. It's quite smart and catchy and it's well acted. The production is fine and in general this is a pretty good film. I noticed that the actors all of a sudden switched to English for only a few sentences or frases. I don't know it this is a typical Indian thing but I found it interesting at least. OK film, with few faults, but it was maybe a bit messy and easy at some levels. 6 out of 10 Internet cafés. See more 09/20/2020 Horrible movie horrible horrible See more 08/06/2020 Kashyap's best work after Gulaal. See more 04/11/2020 I don't know why it has got 63% on rotten tomatoes as it deserves at least 90+ rating. This film has one of the finest plots ever written and only Anurag Kashyap can explore the dark side of people with flawless presentation. See more 01/14/2019 Thrilling movie with lot of twists and turn. Only downside is that it's a dark story with lots of soulless characters. See more Read all reviews
