Quotes
An unnamed viewer
A viewer who strongly criticized the film
“Yash has a bossy screen presence, and the terrific background score elevates his scenes to the next level. It's his show all the way. Whistle-worthy dialogues and scenes, plenty of violence, and an expected dose of intimacy. So far, it's engaging and intriguing.”
NDTV
“The first half of #TOXIC was straight-up torture. It feels like watching a 90-minute trailer. The editing is completely off, there is zero emotional connection, and scene after scene just drags on. My friends literally walked out. Pure pain.”
