Blurr movie review: Taapsee Pannu thriller is too stretched, too flat

Watch Blurr movie trailer:

So far, all good. The idea of losing your eyesight, the thing that afflicted Gayatri, and which appears to be Gautami’s lot now, is scary enough. And then to have someone flitting around at the edge of your increasingly blurry vision, is doubly scary. The atmospherics are fine, but the characters, including the leading lady’s who has maximum screen time, come off sketchy. What was Gayatri, whose life and death has such an impact on her twin, like? Same same or different? What does Gautami’s husband do, apart from ferrying her from Point A to Point B? And once an ostensibly helpful character (Thapliyal, effective) starts telegraphing his punches, even the jump scares become predictable.

Much too soon, and this is the trouble with most Bollywood thrillers, the plot gets far too stretched, the run time becomes too long, and the film flattens.
