Waiting Movie Poster
What’s Good: How beautifully an emotional story is conveyed minus forced drama or tear-jerking content!
What’s Bad: A better work with the cinematography could have been good since the movie hardly moves beyond the hospital scenes, keeping Cochin’s beauty at bay.
Loo Break: It can wait!
Watch or Not?: Waiting is a clear sign of mint-fresh direction. Lovable and relatable characters etched into a fine story makes this one a great slice of a life film!
