Bipasha Basu starrer quickly becomes a tussle between the scenes that want you to be scared and the sequences where you are supposed to slurp at all the eye candy.

Bipasha Basu, despite playing a double role here, offers fewer expressions than Neena Gupta who's paralyzed for most of the film.

Sify · Sonia Chopra

This is a below-par film - an unabashed copy, relying on a few lame thrills and the erotica to sail through. Whether it will, is for the audience to decide.

Deccan Chronicle · Kusumita Das

Overall, the film gives a few thrills and chills that a horror film does, with its eerie background score and more often the impression of an ambush lurking in the crannies.

To sum it up, with a successful story at hand, Alone could've been a real scare-fest had the makers invested in the script and screenplay writers.

Bipasha Basu tries hard to infuse life in the inert plot. She fails,though we can't blame her.Even the stunning Kerala locales look listless when weighed against the cartoonish terror and lust of a pair which knows they are…

Go and watch Alone if you have nothing else to do this weekend. For those who love horror genre, please stay away from this one.

Glamsham · Martin D'Souza

If only he, director Bhushan Patel, had put in as much enthusiasm in the horror portion as he put in the lip-locks, maybe, this would have been a horror film.

Alone isn’t as horrifically bad as most Bollywood horror flicks tend to be. But that obviously is not saying much.

Watch the movie, for it is rare to sit through a supernatural thriller laughing all the way! No, on a more serious note, just skip it. You can drool over Bipasha or Karan Singh in the comfort of your home later.

Zee News · Aparna Mudi

This horrex is at best a one time watch. Watch it if you want to see the sizzling chemistry between Bips and Karan. But, if you are a thrill fan, 'Alone' will leave you disappointed.

Mid-Day · Shakti Shetty

Horror is a six-letter word beginning with a 'h' and ending with a 'r'. Just like humour. 'Alone' is worth laughing with too.

Plot isn't so much the point. Most horror movies are about someone who feels the spirit and everyone else who's unable to believe this.

Alone at the end is quite a typical Bollywood horror film which will scare you in bits and parts.

Despite the seductive promos and skin show, Bhushan Patel’s Alone is anything but s**y. Even Bipasha and Karan’s chemistry couldn’t save the desi version of Thai flick Alone.

The Times of India · Meena Iyer

Inspired by a 2007 Thai film by the same name, this Bollywood adaptation depends too heavily on creaking doors and a shrieking Sanjana to send a chill down your spine.

Alone is as good as a B-grade film, featuring several sequences that are very corny, says Paloma Sharma.

On the whole, Alone is an entertaining fare and will do fair business at the box-office.

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.
