“Most of the comedic moments fell flat. Although the beginning was good and promising, the film ultimately failed to elevate. There isn’t much to say about the lead performances either. While there were a few laughs, they were not up to the expected standard,” the user wrote.
#Painkili below par expected. Most of the said wits fall flat. The start was good and promising, but then on, it failed to elevate. There is not much to talk about regarding lead performances as well.
