Fever movie review: what critics say (5)
What critics say Critics are largely negative: 0 of 5 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 4 gave it 2 or less. Criticised: the script.
Overall, Fever is disappointing beyond words, even for Rajeev Khandelwal fans.
Read the full reviewDirector Rajeev Jhaveri attempts a Hollywood-style narrative with conviction but underestimating the audience's intellect and oversimplifying the plot makes it a tiring watch.
Read the full reviewIn short, including the meaningless title, this one leaves you flummoxed.
Our desi writers really need to work hard on their scripts. The story here seems too convoluted. Unlike other thrillers, this one battles between reality and fiction, and makes the plot unappealing.
Read the full reviewKhandelwal is sincere in his desi Sherlock act (he apes Cumberbatch, making his deductions from the clues popping on screen) but has no support from the plot.

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.
