Lacklustre fare

Packed with corny cringe worthy lines and illogical plot twists and conviniences, Mr. X is drab and dull. Yet, it is in 3D so may be thats a saving grace? No. There is no need to see a bad film in the third dimension? The 3D serves only to highlight the tackiness of the entire enterprise and shows h...(more)

Unalloyed gobbledygook: two words are all that one needs to sum up Mr X.

Mr X is after all a Bollywood love story, and the world is yet to evolve any credible science that can explain the myriad illogicality that is part and parcel of the genre. There is much worse here. The story of the film is set in Mumbai, but the street scenes and the chases have clearly been sho...(more)

Mr. X is watchable and engaging but shows spark in parts.

It has a solid story in place, but the sharp twists fail to maintain the consistency of the drama. However, what works in this film is its intention to deliver something different. The concept of an invisible vigilante hero was done best in the Anil Kapoor starrer Mr. India. Vikram Bhatt adopts the ...(more)

Injustice, invisibility and an Emraan Hashmi

Mr. X comes across as a decent one-time watch, if you choose to reflexively force-shut your ears to some of the corny dialogues.

There's nothing to see, not even Emraan Hashmi

Not much. Honestly there is very little to praise in the film. Emraan tries his best to salvage the situation, but there isn't much he can do.Troubles start early on for Mr X, in a time where special effects and storylines are getting richer, the film turns back the hands of time and sets everything...(more)

Mr. X will be your type of film for two reasons If you are a fan of Bhatt films, You are a fan of Emraan Hashmi.

The fact that Bhatts know their audiences so well that they know, in spite of serving them a old done to death script with a invisibility cloak, their fans will watch it. The VFX used for the scenes that have Emraan changing his form are actually done neatly and the kids may enjoy seeing it.(more)
