Sharang L @Scribe187 08/04/2025 It's a masterpiece. Sensitive in stark contrast to the sensationalism that surrounded the actual case. Some powerhouse performances to boot.

CINEMATIC PET PEEVE: Has there ever been a character in a movie who says, "It's an open-and-shut case," that isn't eventually proved to have been grossly incorrect? See more 01/16/2020 For all of its promising notes which are not safe, really- and they are unmistakable as brilliant and cinematic- 'Talvar' is all towards the judicial system of India. There's a special biases towards the Talvar couple. But this is just a minor complaint in an otherwise moving, subtle, rich and grounded film that always does everything it can to not be exploitative. It has all the elements a truly thrilling film would need. There is heft and vulnerability here. Irrfan Khan and Neeraj Kabi as the CBI officer and Rajesh Talwar- respectively- are my favorite performances from the film. But there's absolutely no denying that even Konkona Sen Sharma is very striking as the poised character inspired by the Mama Talwar Nupur. Do watch 'Talvar'. It's a solid film and beyond that, a profoundly seamless example of a horror story of the modern times. If not anything else, watch it for it's unflinchingly emotional gaze and a realistic portrayal of media. See more yash b @yashbansal 06/10/2018 "Talvar" is a very effective true crime thriller that really kept me on the edge of my seat. Since I knew nothing about what happened in real life, I didn't know what to expect. The mystery element of the movie is handled well and all of the possible theories for the crime committed in the movie are explained. I also really liked Irrfan Khan's performance and thought his character was the best part of the movie. Even in the slower patches of the movie, every second he was on screen was great. I can't blame the movie for being based on an unsolved case, but because of that, I felt it lacked closure and it was a tad bit frustrating. However, in the movie's defense, I think that is how they want you to feel because it is showing a situation where true justice was missing. It's not the most pleasant movie out there, but it is a fascinating and intelligent movie that will certainly raise many questions. See more 09/14/2016 absolutely brilliant.. It worries me how close to real life this whole story is. See more Read all reviews
