Reviews

"I M 24" received mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, it holds a modest rating of 6.1/10, indicating a generally average reception. Critics appreciated Rajat Kapoor’s earnest performance, noting his ability to balance comedic timing with a certain emotional depth, which brings charm to the otherwise predictable plot. The Times of India praised the film's light-hearted premise but critiqued the screenplay for being uneven and occasionally dragging the pace, stating, "While the concept is fresh, the execution leaves room for improvement." Some reviewers on platforms like Bollywood Hungama highlighted the film's humor and the satirical take on age and relationships, though they pointed out that the narrative sometimes feels disjointed. Audience reviews echoed similar sentiments, with many enjoying the film for its simplicity and relatable themes but wishing for a tighter script and stronger character development. Overall, "I M 24" stands out for its unique storyline and Rajat Kapoor’s engaging portrayal but falls short of delivering a consistently compelling cinematic experience.
