Technical Fineness with subtle performances
mnmohan-5166713 May 2024
I have watched this movie and felt Sandalwood in need of this fine team. It's a no nonsense movie deals with Current relevant plot.

Happy to see such underrated actors giving their fine performances thanks to the technical team.

Joy to see Vijay Raghavendra making fine movie choices with young and supporting actors doing their job neatly.

I also checking the lyrics in the songs and are pretty decent. Background music, camera work are good.

One thing I want to highlight is the transformation of scenes from past to present using grey/ color modes Overall director Gangadhar Shalimat and team delivered a worth to watch movie.

"Grey Games": A Cinematic Masterpiece Reflecting Modern Societal Challenges
hariharpai10 May 2024
"Grey Games" emerges as a visionary masterpiece in Kannada cinema, boldly delving into contemporary societal issues sparked by augmented reality and gaming addiction. The film brilliantly explores the concept of the metaverse and its far-reaching implications, pushing the boundaries of storytelling and social commentary.

Led by the adept performances of psychologist Vijay Raghavendra, Ishita Singh, Bhavana Rao, Jai, and Shruti, the ensemble cast delivers a riveting portrayal of characters grappling with the complexities of modern technology and its impact on human behavior. Particularly commendable is the portrayal of the enigmatic Red Hunter character, adding a layer of intrigue and suspense to the narrative.

What sets "Grey Games" apart is its ability to seamlessly weave together a compelling storyline, breathtaking cinematography, and stellar acting, culminating in a cinematic masterpiece. It's a must-watch for audiences, offering both entertainment and valuable insights into pressing societal issues. In a cinematic landscape starved for innovation, "Grey Games" stands tall as a beacon of excellence, reminding viewers of the power of cinema to provoke thought and inspire change. Youngsters, in particular, would benefit from its message, serving as a cautionary tale and a call to awareness in an increasingly digital age.

I can't believe movies like big budget with no storyline. Better viewership, but masterpieces like this left unnoticed. You're highly advised to watch this on theater! You won't regret it.

Well, first let me just say that I'm not usually the one that writes reviews! But wow! This movie is really underrated. The plot was solid 10/10 for me.

The director have made the movie up to the level . The background music is well suited to the situation of the movie. This movie is a simple step towards changing this mindset. This Film should Play in Theatres atleast three months. Already recommended this movie to my all circle guys. Gangadhar Salimath Great Direction.

minutes. Worth
vigneahnn15 May 2024
Gray Games One of the best Movies i have watched till date. This movie makes you imagine all what you can feel and all what you want to feel in just 120 minutes. Worth watching millions of times. Characters are perfectly casted. Performance, screenplay, dialogues etc all are first class. This movie has everything you'd want in a movie. It is not boring at all, and I can say that this movie is one of my favorites.

Beautiful and textured writing. Exceptional music. Life affirming moments and profound words side by side with the life. This is not typically the kind of movie I enjoy but this has everything. Several time while watching I realized I was smiling. Perfect date movie. Perfectly cast, perfectly acted.

fast paced that you cant get a grip of things.
sardhiksaran15 May 2024
An interesting film with strong performances and a flawed screenplay. Direction is slightly better than writing, but you can't make a great film without great writing and a great screenplay in such cases. Every character is well defined. The story is written brilliantly written but somewhere the direction of the movie is so fast paced that you cant get a grip of things.

It is a more than a one time watchable entertainer. Director has given the audiences an amazing entertainer with a strong social message inside.

The movie has many turns and twists. The movie was not at all boring. Everybody acted very well in the movie. Vijay Raghavendra is best always.

A fresh mindset in KFI
mukund-6523817 May 2024
"Grey Games" as the name suggests , there is lot of happening between Black and White, real and unreal. Played by underated actors, they have done extremely good job. Very real very fresh. No jumping in the air, kicking, diving, firing, blasting no nonsense at all. The characters are playing the role as though it has happened with their personal life. Such a natural acting all have carried through. The plot is very fresh. Metaverse itself is a new concept. How one gets so much involved in online gaming, how it affects ones own career , personal life. Vijay Raghavendra sir has given a stellar performance. "Jai" debut movie has taken him to a next level. We can see one excellent artist in him. KFI has got a new talent. Bhavana Rao madam done a new role which has we dont associate her with. She has done a good job. As Jai's mother "Aparna" madam has done a splendid acting. A twist in the tale has done all the justice to the movie. Totally unexpected ending. All in all a fresh air has been brought by Gangadhar Salimath to KFI. Thanks to the producer for investing in a movie which has totally new subject which was never touched by any of the film fraternity before. Entirely a new concept movie , worth watching by all family members. Worth every penny. Watch now.

There were
mohanaswin-4820215 May 2024
For admirable portrait of small aspects of the every day existence, for dialogues and, sure, for something nameless because you only feel. Short, great at whole. There were elements which reminded me of silly things which I have done in the past and wished I could have done over, moments I wish I could relive and times I wish I could get.

One thing that makes this stand out is the somewhat philosophical approach, an approach that is conveyed with simplicity so all can relate. There is a moral message but you have to wait until the end to get what it is because it isn't so obvious as the film rolls. Grey Games.

Gripping till the ends
SaiAditya101811 May 2024
Grey games sensibly depicts the Grey side of Online Gaming!

Amazing narrative so well depicted that will keep you guessing untill the end. Thoroughly enjoyed it, Jai has shown his mettle and Vijay in his new role has ticked all the boxes. Bhavna looks very convincing in her roll as a cop.

Kudos to the animation team the sequences look so real life like, it was a visual treat especially the nature trails.

A must watch weekend entertainer!!!

The movie also highlights a very important social message which is very relevant in today's virtual/online era.

Gaming addiction has been on a rise and the younger generation is getting tangled in the charm of the online world without realising the adverse effects it has on them.

For me, no, because
p-4819715 May 2024
Is it the worst thing? For me, no, because the other aspect make it fun and a nice refresh in this type of film, the quality and presentation helping make it fun and fresh. It sticks to the feelings of realism, but a little more dialogue, a good deed, or something might have gone more for me. I would also say that there were other characters I wanted more time with, but again, a sequel of some sort may be perfect to see in the future and give me more time later with the group established. To be honest, I wanted more with how much fun I was having with this film. To be honest, I wanted more with how much joy I was having with this film. Must Watch Grey Games.

Hats off
sonaanna-3102515 May 2024
Excellent planning by the team in this story adaptation and wonderful direction to mix all of this so well in the short time. The movie puts so much into balancing this journey and showing the character not the concept and in doing that, again captures scenes with good feel that welcomes watching and not eye rolling like so many "storytellers" do. It was kind of awesome and I appreciated how well it handled so much when it came to making a good movie.

Hats off to the realistic storyteller. He has gently plucked our life stories and knitted it into a beautiful masterpiece. The story is written brilliantly written but somewhere the direction of the movie is so fast paced that you cant get a grip of things. Grey Games.

know much about the story
Grey Games I saw last night felt awkward being one of very few guys in the audience. I didn't know much about the story besides plenty of promotions and I love the cast. All the young cast is magnificent too ! There's a lot of charm, great story amazing drama and I didn't expect this much freshness. I loved this movie a lot even though I'm not the target audience it's a pleasant joyful film with great direction. Costumes/attire/fashions seemed believable. Kudos to costume designers. Team handled all of this simplistic adventure so well to many audience. Thats why its a Must watch.

It would highly recommend!

soundtrack
harshanpr15 May 2024
The good thing in Grey Games is it don't get preachy and just shows characters as characters. Cinematography of this movie is exceptional especially the intro Clymax scene which is a single shot scene and it was flawless and really makes u believe that you've came to the right movie for the price.

Bgm and soundtrack was also great as we know the composer is a musical maestro so no need to explain about it.every songs and bgm especially inthe climax were perfect.the stunt choreography in the climax also deserves an appreciation. Grab some popcorn, get comfy, and be prepared to be moved by this powerful cinematic gem.

from about twenty minutes into the film.
maxchandy15 May 2024
I absolutely loved Grey Games, and found that balance quite clever and subtle. All the feel and acting was quite honestly mediocre to great, nothing too bad, and establishing a community with the time you had. While not every character got the time I would have liked, it was quite good with how they handled things. I liked the actress , I liked her balance role and the chemistry she had with so many worked so well. I look very much forward to her future roles if she does this movie's performance in other films. It's a movie about life and a specific aspect of life, and you cant pretty much guess what is coming from about twenty minutes into the film.
