Review of the film :
This film reviews are mostly negative from critics.
Critics reviews :
- Times of India critics gave 2.5 star out of 5 star and stated that “Sonali is stunning and impressive, Zoya makes a pretty picture and Yo Yo is best when he’s grooving. Himesh slips well into his character, with quirkiness and confidence. This is far from a mind-bending thriller, but a decent effort which has some good ‘ol masala to keep you entertained.”
- Suprateek Chatterjee from Firstpost stated that “The Xposé is campy yet surprisingly watchable film”
- Critics from koimoi team gave 2 star from 5 stars and writes that “This film could be an out and out entertainer for you if you wish to see bad acting, and an unkempt storyline. Watch it if you need a good laugh!”
- Taran Adarsh from Bollywood Hungama gave 3 star from 5 star and stated that “On the whole, THE XPOSE is a decently-crafted vintage musical-thriller that keeps you guessing about the identity of the murderer all through. An entertaining outing for fans of atypical Bollywood-style murder mysteries.”
