(watched, at the theater 📽️)
This isn't as bad as I expected it to be according to social media.
My gripes with it is that: 1) I didn't expect it to be a prison movie, and certainly not to be a dwelling prison movie. 2) There are too many singing acts disconnected from the main narration (many of them are (day-)dreams), as if it is a Bollywood movie with some random clips in the middle. 3) The ending doesn't make any sense at all.
Although I would say it's a cinematic success in many ways (the atmosphere, the directing, the acting, the make-up, etc), the sum of those high-quality parts unfortunately results in a low-quality whole.
