A Half-Baked, Misfired Attempt At Delivering A Genre-Specific Thriller!

D Block is a very ordinary attempt at making a psycho-thriller by a team of Youtubers. In fact, a large part of the picture seems like a sketch video with amateur making and performances and this is a root cause for the lack of an impact. One might wonder why the animated flashcut that involves the life of a troubled antagonist (15 year old psycho), did not find a place in the film as stand-alone scenes, as these could have actually been the scenes that built it up for the thrills.(more)

Hastily written thriller with no depth

Once the suspense is revealed, there are no thrill elements or major twists to hold the screenplay for almost an hour. It becomes tiring and even laughable the way it progresses toward the climax. Though logic cannot be applied to horror movies or thrillers, here it really goes for a huge toss defeating the purpose of the film.(more)

D Block gets its thrill moments right, but as a film, it turns out to be a middling affair!

The film is not something that would make audiences stand in their seats and pump their fists up in the air as some of the most serious moments don't lend the intended impact.Considering the fact that D Block is Vijay's debut directorial, the film does have its own share of issues, with regards to writing and filmmaking. However, he did get one crucial element right - the thriller part of a thriller. Scenes that create suspense were very well done by him and jump-scares were perfectly timed and executed. Those moments are sure to keep you hooked. Some of the comedy sequences during the college episodes were enjoyable, having the potential to connect well with the youths. (more)
