Blind Game, which has released today on Zee5, is directed by the late Sangeeth Sivan. The film commences on a promising note but, in no time, goes downhill. The writing is very poor. The circumstances under which the friends get into trouble are childish, while their ideas to get out of it are sillier. In one scene, the friends plan to fake the death of one of them using an unclaimed body. There’s talk of replacing the dead body's hair and nail samples with those of the friend, so that the authorities would not suspect that any foul play has occurred! Truly a 'This is beyond science' moment. Arjun Rampal rises above the flawed script and is sincere. Priyamani tries her best but is let down by the writing. Mahesh Palai (Rangta) is menacing but is completely forgotten after a point. The actors playing friends are okay. All in all, Blind Game is avoidable.

My rating - * ½ out of 5!
