The Wedding Guest

It is an Indian movie, with Indian actors within India locations, with an India story. if you knew how hard would take all the aspect of the India cinematographic and turn it over to some thrill watchable for nonindian viewers you would be not giving so low rates. it is a great movie to watch. if you are looking for shoot outs do it else where.

Has its moments (especially the first 20 minutes) but ultimately meanders its way to nowhere with a few pointless stops and illogical plots twists in between. Well acted though the Indian backdrop is probably the true star.

'The Wedding Guest' 8/10 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠 = Heavy Praise

I'll make this quick, Some actors are stand out stars who always rise to the occasion and find a way to make every role they play authentic and memorable. Dev Patel is one of those such actors. 'The Wedding Guest' is an understated thriller that keeps you glued to the screen as you watch. Not because of guns blazing or intense car chases, It's because this film has a storyline that unfolds in a masterful way balancing intrigue and mystery through out it's entirety. The pace, music and acting was brilliant. I would definitely recommend this movie and my rating would be 8/10 which garners heavy praise.

I would like to give this movie a higher rating. Both of the leads are incredibly attractive, and good actors who created characters who quickly captured my interest. The settings gave me an satisfying dose of some aspects of Indian and Pakistani culture and day to day realities, and what it might be like to exist in that space as a moderately privileged person. The plot setup in the beginning 25 minutes or so was good, and I thought "This might really go somewhere". But it didn't. It just kind of sat there, and then ended.

Just to put in plain and simple words, the start of the movie was brilliant the director right away catches the attention of the audience and they get lured into the storyline. Dev was great no doubt about that but the only issue I have throughout the film was the background of the female lead character (Radhika Apte). The director didn't give out any such information on how the personality of the female lead is and how it would react in situations put before the movie. The rest is brilliant. I do understand one could say on one of the dialogues when Radhika asks Dev can you I trust you and he says No maybe that is the answer but once again that is situational not the background. Anyways its a good movie but the ending as I agree with my fellow watchers could have been great instead of the this then this movie would have done more business guaranteed.
