First review for ‘Con City’
The first reactions shared on X suggest that the film has left a positive impression on the early audiences.One of the early reviews praised the film’s writing and the way it handled its central premise. The critic wrote, “#ConCity – 3.75/5. An engaging crime-comedy slow-burn thriller. All four main characters are well-written and deliver solid performances.” The film revolves around a unique scandal and while stories of this genre often suffer from plot holes, the strong writing cleverly masks them here. The humor works very well at some places, the interval block is effectively staged and the entire 2nd half revolves around a huge scandal that keeps the narrative engaging. Although some parts slow down here and there, the overall film remains interesting throughout. Overall, a good watch.”
