Atom User Reviews
Thoughtful exploration of a conflicted woman forced to choose between two men whose worldliness and lifestyle are both appealing but are worlds apart.
Had such high expectations from this movie, but the ending was really disappointing.. Nevertheless, amazing acting by Irrfan Khan, Kelly McDonald, husband, and kids - definitely worth a watch if you are a Khan or McDonald fan. Just gloomy throughout 😑
Metacritic
Puzzle is often too prosaic for its own good.
It’s a testament to Macdonald’s performance (and later, to Khan’s charm) that we share her passion for puzzling.
This directing debut for experienced producer Marc Turtletaub (Little Miss Sunshine, Loving) ticks along pleasantly, driven by an efficient if slightly bland script by Oren Moverman and Polly Mann.
