Film critic Nikhat Kazmi believes the film, that has got a four-star rating, "might just take your breath away with its iridescence and engaging quality".
Trade analysts too feel it will fetch wonderful returns at the box office. "It's an outstanding cinematic experience," said Taran Adarsh, while Komal Nahta predicted that "the film is a sureshot winner." They are not the only ones to give a thumbs-up to OUATIM. Some of the top-notch directors like Madhur Bhandarkar, Priyadarshan, Mahesh Bhatt, Rohit Shetty and Ashwini Dhir have been more than lavish with their praises for this gangster film.
OUATIM is not just a rewind to the golden 70s era but it is also a rewind to the time of housefulls, impactful dialogues, superhit music, incessant clapping, enthusiastic whistling, lathi-charges for controlling manic fans and everything else that made for the perfect movie experience!
With the strong word-of-mouth and an equally strong opening, the film is bound to get the cash registers ticking for Balaji Motion Pictures!
