Review
“Heer Express” ultimately provides “clean entertainment,” according to Abhishek Srivastava of The Times of India, who gave it a rating of 2.5 out of 5, but only if your definition of fun is being trapped on a movie train that won’t accelerate.
Hindustan Times’ Rishabh Suri rated it two stars out of five, stating that the movie struggles to make use of its seasoned ensemble, the first half drags, and the second half never grips.
Times’ Sharva Srivastava Heer Express is a heartwarming movie that honors resiliency, love, and familial ties, according to Now, which gave it a rating of 3 out of 5. The movie has a lot of heart despite its shortcomings, the most obvious of which is predictability.
Heer Express is a retread of the classic Punjabi family drama combined with a coming-of-age girl story, according to Rachit Gupta of Filmfare, who gave it three stars out of five.
Heer Express is a cozy, uplifting performer that honors resiliency, love, and family, according to Ria Sharma of Free Press Journal, who rated it three stars out of five. Predictability is the biggest of its shortcomings, but it also has heart.
Heer Express chugs along with a charming, won’t-hurt-a-fly appeal, but its manufactured crises fail to excite, according to Subhash K. Jha of News 24, who gave it a rating of three out of five. As Heer, Divita Juneja dazzles, but Prit Kamani frequently takes center stage.
Heer Express’s comedy is unfunny, the emotional parts are questionable, and the music is forgettable, according to Deepa Gahlot of Rediff.com, who gave it a rating of 2.5 out of 5.
