Chup movie review: what critics say (8)
What critics say Critics are divided: 1 of 8 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 4 gave it 2 or less.

Read the full reviewChup is a muddle but certainly not of monumental proportions. That it ventures into uncharted territory is undeniably commendable. But it needed something more to elevate itself above a mere idiosyncratic concept.
Read the full reviewChup comes from a team that immensely loves cinema and everything it represents, you must surrender to an idea that is untouched and brilliant.

At a concept level, Balki and his team of writers (Raja Sen and Rishi Virmani) have a virgin plot that focuses on the life of the film critics, whose vocation has never really been explored in Hindi cinema.

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.
