All the intensity that Raveena Tandon brings to bear upon this outing is completely misdirected

Maatr is a predictable revenge story that completely ignores the trauma and social stigma that is usually attached to rape victims regardless of their social class. The subject is handled so ham-handedly, you cringe at the mistakes and wish they'd stop making rape an easy subject.

A Feeble Attempt To Seek Justice But Raveena Tandon Shines In This Revenge Film!

Raveena is sincere as the victim who sullies her hands to get justice. But, the amount of bloodshed, leaves you asking, what is worse. Are the images of rape gorier, or is the bloodshed of the perpetrators of the crime, grosser?

The second half of “Maatr” follows a predictable pattern, and neither the methods of revenge nor their results are new.
