A Not Bad Entertainer That Works As An Undemanding Watch!

Teddy is a pretty straightforward film despite the sci-fi/supernatural space it operates on and that works in its favour. It is the sort of film that should work for kids and for adults wanting an undemanding watch. Given the current exploits in visual effects, a teddy moving around with life isn't something that is going to make you sit up. But the film focusses more on the relationship dynamics between Arya and the teddy and this it does pretty well. (more)

THE AMUSING ACTS OF THE TEDDY BEAR AND ITS CHEMISTRY WITH ARYA ENTERTAINS THE VIEWERS

The movie's novel plot is its major positive apart from a committed performance from Arya, who effortlessly pulls off the role of a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. The story commences as a whiff of fresh air compared to the regular commercial potboilers.(more)

An average fantasy thriller

The first half of the film is largely thanks to the cute act of Teddy and the interesting characterization of Arya. But the post-intermission, Shakti Rajan took audiences for granted with several logical loopholes that one can enjoy the proceedings only if you keep your brains at home (more)
