Sluggish thriller, It�s no Kahani! Watch it for the performances if you should!
A better screenplay and tighter editing could have made this one a tout thriller. Though the director was really good with the imagery he used from the city of Kolkata. The dullness, the fear, the stagnancy was well brought out in the shots used. Even the background score and songs suited the mood quite aptly. (more)

Amitabh Bachchan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer a case of sadly missed opportunities
while the identity of the culprit does come as a surprise if you haven�t been attentive to some amount of obviousness in the unravelling, the suspense is not as killing as it can be, which for a whodunit like this, is the real crime.(more)

Amitabh Bachchan, take a bow
It�s edgy, gripping and dark, mostly because of the actors and partly due to the milieu. While Nawazuddin brings a strangeness to the table, Sabyasachi shows how to get noticed subtly. Amitabh is the cohesive force behind this thriller. The director weaves a web of lies and psychological disorders, but he also attaches motives to his characters. Though his choice of background music surprises at times, he compensates with pace. His biggest success is the high degree of audience involvement in a 138-minute film.(more)

TE3N IS A WHODUNNIT THAT'S WORTH A WATCH
The film's ability to maintain the suspense right till the end makes it a must-watch for those who like whodunnits. However, a better pace could have lifted this film a notch higher. (more)

switch off their brains when watching a film.
It isn�t an edge-of-the-seat humdinger. The motivations of its key characters are at times rather fuzzy. And it suffers from a pronounced Kahaani hangover (which is not surprising given that director Sujoy Ghosh is the producer). But Te3n is never less than eminently watchable. The slow-burning drama about crime, tragedy, guilt and retribution has the potential to repay the patience of those that don�t switch off their brains when watching a film.(more)

TE3N is a weak remake
Amitabh Bachchan is excellent, no question. Ah, if only his mystery involved an elusive bottle of Isabgol. (more)
