Khamoshiyan movie review: what critics say (13)
What critics say Critics are largely negative: none of the 13 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 13 gave it 2 or less. Criticised: the performances.
The buri aatma gets its chance to keep the make-up artists busy, and to give us a couple of frights. But, as always, Bollywood cant really get serious about horror, because it needs to shove in a song at that very moment.
Read the full reviewKhamoshiyan is so consumed by its cheesy scares-s**-scares-s** pattern, the upshot is tacky and unintentionally hilarious.
Read the full reviewHow long can you watch three good-looking people doing the dumbest of things in the misguided hope that they would scare you with their propensity to think with their private parts in public places.
Read the full reviewIf you are a Gurmeet Choudhary fan you will be disappointed, so I'd suggest you skip the movie and wait for the actor's next film. According to me, the movie lacks soul i.e. the story, barring which it makes for a decent watch.
Read the full reviewKhamoshiyan makes you shiver. But not in fear. It just makes you shake in embarrassment for all the ghosts and spirits who are so royally snubbed and insulted by such travesties of terror.
Read the full reviewVikram Bhatt, the writer of ‘Khamoshiya’ badly needs to think of an outrageous plot for his next, because his movies are no longer as scary as it used to be once.

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.
