In Car Review: If an actor and actress impresses audience with their performance in the debut movies, audience will definitely expect the same from their next releases.

Verdict
In Indian movies we have rarely seen survival thriller movies. It is good to see that Indian film makers are now trying to make new genre films and “In Car” is one such interesting survival thriller. Without taking much time, movie kick starts with the abduction of the main character. Starting scenes will definitely create some interest and tension among the audience.
Movie has some good scenes that will make us feel for the lead role and her condition, but at the same time, we also feel that movie missed some logics behind to move the story forward. Interval scene will create some impact, but that doesn’t remain for long as later half of the movie makes us feel bored with the scenes that we have watched in few movies earlier and movie ends with a good message.
While it comes to acting performances, actress Ritika Singh once again gave her best for the role of Sakshi. She understood the role very well and perfectly balanced the emotions on screen, but she could have been better in few emotional scenes. Sandeep Goyat, Manish Jhanjholia, Gyan Prakash and all other actors did their part well as required for the characters.
Technically In Car movie looks okay. Background music composed by Mathias Duplessy is apt for the scenes and also created some impact during the interval portions. Cinematography by Mithun Gangopadhyay should be appreciated for his efforts, as most of the movie is shot inside a car. Editing by Manik Diwar is crisp. Production values are okay.
Director Harsh Warrdhan tried to provide us a unique survival thriller and he succeeded in making up to some extent. But this movie may not be appealing for all section of audience and we need to wait for the response of audience for this weekend to decide the final result.
Overall, In Car is a thought provoking reality based survival thriller that can be watched for the efforts of movie team and an appreciable performance by Ritika Singh.
