Netflix finally surprises with this wicked little cracker, an acerbic excoriation of wealth inequality and Western hypocrisy in a similar vein to Parasite. A shame the pacing sags slightly in the middle and the ending is so weird, but nonetheless, this is a great start to 2021 cinema. What a phenomenal performance from Adarsh Gourav.

Meh. I liked it but not sure I like the dishonest marketing of the "cunning and ambitious" lead who basically just became a murderer and thief to get ahead. They make it sound like he got ahead with wit and hard work.

I read the book years ago and found it uneven, veering between wildly entertaining and rather schlocky/sensational. The film was much the same, but it’s certainly enjoyable and energetic and I agree that Gourav’ s performance is superb. 6/10

This is another Hollywood-like propaganda. You can't go up in life unless you do something bad. So RICH = EVIL.
Just another movie exploiting envy from the underclass.

I guess in a way, it's not thematically unlike an American rap video.

I thought the ending was the most captivating part of the film. It's really the only part that breaks the mold of previous films in it's brazenness. Of course the amorality is antithetical to any civil society, and that would apply evenly throughout the film. I found Parasite to be a much more cautionary tale that this. Interestingly, the timing of the release and some of the work Mark Rober has done with scams coming from India shines a light on what could be a "just theory" of theft. No matter if you agree or not, this was quite a powerful film. 7/10 for me.
