Mme LeMarchand and I went to see this last night. I almost called it off as, for personal reasons, I was in a very black mood - but a couple of hours of total escapism had me on a much more even keel. Well worth a look if you like this sort of movie, though you probably need to have seen the 4 other "Spy Universe" movies, and definitely at least "Tiger Jinda Hai" and "Pathaan".

Anyway, our cinema (UK) was advertising a 122 minute running time which is pretty short for an Indian movie of this type. We were a little confused by the certification card being from the Irish board (didn't notice the certificate) and by the fact that we got home 30 minutes later than expected. On investigation, it seems as if the official UK release has been cut for violence to drop the certificate, but the time we spent in the screen and the card makes us suspect that we saw the uncut version - no complaints there! Different theatres seem to be advertising different running times, so who knows what's going on. If you're planning on viewing in the UK, it might be worth speaking to your theatre to check the actual running time if you want to see the uncut version.
