1. Times of India -
Rating Score -> 3.5/5
Aasman Bharadwaj proves his mettle by juggling an overstuffed plot and a bunch of talented actors. 'Kuttey' isn't exactly a deep, dark satire made to perfection, yet it is a wildly entertaining mishmash of guns, goons and gaalis.
2. Times Now -
Rating Score -> 4/5
This tale is dark, and it has so much of everything. It in fact, manages to pack in the right punches in a tale of drama, comedy, action and lawlessness. We watched the film at a special screening and loved it.
3. India TV -
Rating Score -> 2/5
The movie attempts a new genre and that works in the favour of a young director like Aasmaan Bhardwaj. Before rejecting Kuttey as a rip-off of Guy Ritchie-style movies, one must appreciate the fresh attempt at storytelling in Bollywood. This genre surely has potential.
4. Indian Express -
Rating Score -> 1.5/5
Only Tabu rises above this film that lacks both bark and bite. Every time the pulsating ‘dhan-ta-naa’ comes on, and it does frequently, you flash back to the grungy delights of ‘Kaminey’, waiting for the feeble, contrived proceedings in front of you to pass.
5. NDTV -
Rating Score -> 3/5
Tabu Delivers Another Unblemished Performance In Twisted Thriller. Tabu is supported well by Kumud Mishra. Arjun Kapoor, Radhika Madan and Shardul Bharadwaj go with the flow without missing a beat. Naseeruddin and Konkona do full justice to their limited roles.
6. Rediff -
Rating Score -> 2/5
The first-time director has a flair for cynicism and conversation, but needs to work on the synergy of his storytelling. In Kuttey, he relies too much on his influences. In his next, I hope he comes completely into his own.
7. Hindustan Times -
Rating Score -> n/a
Being the first release of 2023, Kuttey doesn't disappoint, however there could have been a lot more to explore and execute with the characters and story at hand. It's a one-time watch and if nothing else, enjoy the music.
8. The Hindu -
Rating Score -> n/a
Aasmaan Bhardwaj’s crime caper is electric in parts, but lacks bite. ‘Kuttey,’ directed by Aasmaan Bhardwaj, has fiery dialogues and the writing manages to create an intriguing premise, but the whole turns out to be less than the sum of its parts.
9. Komal Nahta -
Rating Score -> n/a
Kuttey is an entertaining film. It is class-appealing and will, therefore, get more critical acclaim than box-office rewards because such films nowadays work better on OTT platforms. Family audience patronage will be less for the film. At the ticket windows, the well-written, well-made and well-enacted film will do limited business but collections will definitely pick up as the word of mouth among the class audience will be good.
10. India Today -
Rating Score -> 3/5
Arjun Kapoor delivers a strong performance in Aasmaan Bhardwaj's dark and raw film. Aasmaan Bhardwaj's debut directorial venture, Kuttey, graced the screens on January 13. But does this film, which boasts an ensemble starcast, manage to deliver? Check out our review.
11. The Week -
Rating Score -> 1/5
Kuttey makes one believe that perhaps Aasmaan failed to incorporate his father's inputs in the film, because had the latter directed this one, there's no doubt that the output would have been far different than what it is right now. Unfortunately, Kuttey fails to carry Vishal Bharadwaj's legacy forward. And even if one were to judge Aasmaan's work independent of his father's influence, Kuttey comes across as a big disappointment. A film one might watch to see where it goes, but definitely not a second time.
