Naam movie review: what critics say (6)
What critics say Critics are largely negative: 1 of 6 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 4 gave it 2 or less.
As I said before, considering the film is 22 years old, I enjoyed the typical Bollywood nostalgia which has typical twists and turns, which are not solid but dramatic and enjoyable.
Read the full review‘Naam’ feels like a dated film, with its shots and background clearly reflecting its age.
Read the full reviewToday’s action films are slick and far more violent. Even a high level of crowd-pandering does not work at the box office. If Naam was made today, there wouldn’t even be enough audiences to boo it out of the halls.

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.
