Kites movie review: what critics say (9)
What critics say Critics are divided: none of the 9 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 5 gave it 2 or less. Criticised: the script and the pacing.
Yes, I said experiment. Because while this is pure popcorn, it’s not the popcorn you were expecting.

Read the full reviewKites may not piss you off like some really trashy films you've had to bear in recent times, but you don't like it much either. At best, you are indifferent to it.
Read the full reviewThe story (Rakesh Roshan) is ordinary but it has two good angles one, that the partners of a brother-sister duo fall in love with each other and elope, and secondly, the lovers do not have a common language to converse in.

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.
