7 Khoon Maaf movie review: what critics say (11)
What critics say Critics are divided: 2 of 11 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 5 gave it 2 or less. Criticised: the script.
'Saat Khoon Maaf' succeeds in engaging you at every point. Given a choice, darrrlings, I will take a Vishal Bhardwaj film with all its flaws everytime, because it is a cinematic experience in the true sense of the word : this…
Read the full review7 Khoon Maaf may well be about a demented deity with a fetish for husband-killing, but — incredible as it may seem — it is a strikingly boring film.More than that, in fact, this is a cute film.
Read the full reviewVishal loosely tethers his tale to reality television, radio and newspaper headlines reveal which year we are in – but mostly this fantastical story happens in a dark Neverland.
Read the full reviewThe original story by Ruskin Bond is fertile ground for a thrilling black comedy, but ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’ becomes predictable early on, when the screenplay falls into a set pattern.
Read the full reviewThe narrative is intriguing and slowly grows on you. It makes you wonder, what would you do if you were in Susanna’s shoes.

How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
