Critic Score: 0.5/5
It is easy to see what the makers of Love You To Death are aiming at: a zany black comedy with undertones of seriousness. Unfortunately, the movie has the feel of a drawing room play that doesn't really work as a motion picture. LYTD is loaded with sly, witty dialogues that might have sounded great in conversations and on paper but doesn't translate into laughter on celluloid.In LYTD, the laughs are too few and far between. This gap is the movie's major weakness.The movie's last 20 minutes are its best.LYTD is in Hinglish -- more English than Hindi -- and shifts uncomfortably from one language to another.
Critic Score: 2.5/5
