Wondering what to watch in the theatres this weekend with your friends and family? The two movies that were released on October 27 are Vikrant Massaey's real-life-based movie?12th Fail and Kangana Ranaut's Tejas, which is loosely inspired by the 2016 decision when the Indian Air Force welcomed women into combat positions.??
If you are planning to watch these films in theatres this week, read the audience's verdict and early reviews that will help you make a decision.
The critics aren't too impressed with the film. They think it lacks thrill, good narrative and VFX.?They say it is?exaggeratedly emotional and even the nationalism bit doesn't save it. Furthermore, they say that it is not one of the Kangana Ranaut's best performances. It might appeal to the fans of patriotic movies or Kangana, but a better and tighter screenplay and better story would have worked better.
