Good Bad Ugly movie review: what critics say (10)
What critics say Critics are divided: none of the 10 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 1 gave it 2 or less. Praised: the performances and the script.
It may be a far cry from anything you can call cinema, but I think what I just saw was the first prototype of the future "fanboy movie." Good Bay Ugly that is so tailor-made for fans that it probably makes no sense to someone…
Read the full reviewArmed with an unhinged Ajith Kumar, director Adhik Ravichandran delivers a new benchmark in fan service with a reference-packaged film that should have been more
Read the full reviewOverall, Adhik delivers what was promised to fans. But, is it a film that treats fans and is a masterclass in good storytelling? That's a question only the audience can answer.
Read the full reviewAdhik Ravichandran's fan service is crash course on Ajith's career but never rises above being a showreel. The film is fanboy cinema with its right theatre moments and Easter eggs, if that's all.

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.
