At one point, the story even drives on the similar lanes as Amitabh Bachchan’s recent film Wazir.įor a smart viewer, this script is shallow and will raise his heartbeats at not more than one juncture. The outcome of this thriller is too fickle. The edge-of-the seat thrill that Sujoy Ghosh’s Kahaani provided in the same setting is no where to be found in Te3n.Ĭhoosing for a climax that is less dramatic, sadly, the writers fail to provide a strong logic to it too. One of the major issues with this script is that it is foreseeable for a viewer. For a thriller, the pace of the story is rather sluggish and while one would consider it a massive build up for what’s to come next, unfortunately what we are served as climax comes off as highly unconvincing. The film takes off rather slowly as we are introduced to John’s character and his wheel-chair borne wife. It mainly revolves around the thin line between redemption and revenge and also relieving oneself of guilt for a crime that is unintentionally committed.
