Save yourself the agony and say no to Cookie
pasuin4 September 2020
If I could give this movie zero stars, I would. This movie has nothing going for it-choppy editing; nonexistent story; incoherent direction; and hammier acting than a farm full of pigs. Watching paint dry is a better use of 104 minutes of your life.

A gripping thriller that expertly puts you in the shoes of its protagonist.
sudhanshu645428 February 2020
A decent script, a competent cast and crew and, most importantly, the will, time, money and passion to do it all. It's a wonderfully frustrating, rewardingly claustrophobic and tensely insular experience that sticks you right in the slightly off-kilter head of its protagonist and does a great job of making you feel exactly the way she does at every moment. The pace is almost perfect, as we're dealt a number of blows every time we begin to get comfortable in each new situation, and the slow descent from slightly strange to straight-up sinister is a palpable and uncomfortable one, though it isn't pushed quite as far as it perhaps could have been, and it keeps you unsure about everything you see. The nods back to classic seventies horror, It will keep you constantly on the edge of the seat throughout this gripping, agitating, intriguing and generally very entertaining thriller.

Awful, pointless waste of time
bbkbook4 September 2020
Poorly written, poorly acted movie. Can't find a single positive thing to say about it. My suggestion: skip it!

Zero rating!
shahrehman-5532613 September 2020
Probably the worst hindi movie of 2020! Low budget! Awful acting! Bad editing! Director needs to go back to school!

Only positive was the interesting storyline which sadly the director was unable to visualise and masterpiece on screen. This could have been a decent horror flick but I guess when you put together talentless actors with an equally bad casting, editing, directing crew and a low budget, the end result can only be disastrous.

Don't bother it's a total waste of time!

Goosebumps
garrettupowersw28 February 2020
This will haunt you for a very long time! There are times when we want to sit in bed and watch a horror film. And what makes watching this type of film when you come to know that this film is based on a true story and real people do exist as in the film. Cookie is one such film which is there to haunt you for a very long time.

Switch off your inner critic and enjoy the ride.
Manish_Skhulaa28 February 2020
I just returned from watching this. Found it totally absorbing. I found the format drew me in, making the viewing very claustrophobic. It is a very interesting horror movie. Just switch off your inner critic and enjoy the ride on the edge of your seat.

An honest effort to showcase a genuine problem with a tinge of horror
stirthankar28 February 2020
I really loved the movie. It showcases a genuine problem in most of the families. The horror part actually scare you in most part of the movie. I would say its a perfect amalgamation of a content based story with spine chilling scenes. The modern teen problem issue is very well addressed in the movie. There are few scenes which have left an unforgettable impression in my mind. One more thing I liked about the movie is that it broke away from the traditional night horror scenes and venture even into the day light horror scenes. Although the actors are not well known, but their efforts are good and the story and the screenplay adds on to the efforts. Rarely you get to see a horror movie which is driven by a good story rather than the horror itself. I must admit, after a long time I saw a good horror movie. As a parent myself, I am left with so many questions and thoughts after watching this movie.

Making is good
raagdeshthefilm28 February 2020
Director Lalit Marathe's COOKIE which means cuckooed or say fear of watching your loved one going crazy weird and lost. Lalit Marathe nicely blends this supernatural horror drama with tried and tested traits and is able to spin a wheel of a mystical air in the story of Cookie. Not a challenging jump scare but a decent scare fest with relatable emotions and characters. The film is technically sound with Tuhin Chongder and Somraj Ganguli's music creating the eerie feeling. Cinematography by Sudip Sengupta creates right moods with his effective lighting and shot taking technics.

An awesome movie...gave me goosebumps
sunshinearun28 February 2020
Hats off to the producer for coning out with such a fantastic movie which has a amazing content .subject and theme.The movie is contemporary and relates to present day families especially in urban set up like my present location Kolkata. the movie has compelled me to think on aspects which we generally overlook in day to day life. I loved the creativity in the movie for the type of bone chilling scenes, which I was missing in Indian horror movies. The actors are not known so I went with a very low expectation, but the director and the graphics in the movie have overcome the shortcomings. I came out of the movie overwhelmed and with lots of thoughts. AND CERTAINLY SOME OF THE SCENES WHICH STILL GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS. Cookie could be the next door neighbor's kid whom I see almost on a daily basis...

A genuine nightmare
rahusing-3418428 February 2020
This is a bit of an old fashioned horror movie. Something that plays as a dramatic movie first and then slowly becomes something else. Like "Rosemary" or "Exorcist" but without the high profile clout of those directors. This is two hours of an exploration of family tragedy and grief through characters struggling to something very scary. To say much of this film is to ruin it, so lashing praise onto certain aspects of it is the best one can do. It turns into a genuine nightmare that absolutely worked for me. See it blind, see it as a movie first and foremost (not as a horror show with jump scares), but just see it.

rameshkur28 February 2020
The performance of Vibhoutee Sharma is sublime, her body expression, she looks in each scene, her pain and of course her facial expressions.... the emotional scenes she expressed so well.... that you can feel her feelings. And the music in the movie is amazing. No wonder they became hit immediately. Very Very good!!!! Brilliant Cookie Everyone should watch this masterpiece!

The ultimate horror
gradymhanseni28 February 2020
Well-executed modestly budgeted film production. The result speaks for itself. A narrative with enough horror, suspense, thriller elements that has Mr. Lalit's signature as a filmmaker has written all over it. Impressive performance for Vibhoutee Sharma. Remarkable support from Rajeeb Gupta and Heeba Shah as parents, inmates that she has encountered in the psychiatric facility. Great Work.

Great Direction, Awesome Screenplay, and Brilliant acting.
rajeshkm-8365828 February 2020
The acting. Great performances all round. The cast & crew had great chemistry. Vibhoutee Sharma as Cookie is scary and really creeped me out. Overall, Cookie was a great thriller film that kept me on the edge of my seat, with strong performances, with a strong screenplay.

Fun, Horror, Thrills at its Peak
sinashi28 February 2020
If you take the time to enjoy the chaos, this cliché-riddled ride provides a solid bit of suspenseful fun. Music and screenplay INTENTIONALLY add to the effect of disorder, and a truly unhinged and surprising performance by Vibhoutee Sharma & all other casts. Super direction by Lalit Marathe. Loved it.

Amazing thriller
ram-7885228 February 2020
From the beginning to the end you are not sure how to escape the scene. It builds up slowly and in a very natural way. The storyline is amazing, all the artists and editor Nipun Ashok Gupta, Parag Khaound has done the best work with scenes, Kudos to Lalit Marathe and team. Big recommendation.

Terrifyingly brilliant. You'll float too.
ks-1426028 February 2020
Movie 'Cookie' is a very scary film but what impressed me was how true the film sticks to the original's tricks; it isn't filled with loud in-your-face jump scares, in fact, a lot of what makes this film scary is the slick cinematography and intricate shadow play. The use of lighting and creation of atmosphere is what makes this film so tense, which is why it's perfectly suited for those who like Horror movies but without the obnoxious gore.

Worth a watch
saryan-5584128 February 2020
'Cookie' The storyline and the way it is told does have real substance and is horror from start to end. Vibhoutee Sharma is brilliant at displaying the erratic emotions of a troubled young lady trying to get her life together and so does the other members. Worth a watch.
