4 of 6 people found this review helpful At the outset, one might want to acknowledge Ram Gopal Varma for choosing an unconventional plot. But through its annoying execution, Agyaat only invites ridicule. The director merely conceives half a dozen death sequences in the forest and absolutely ignores to unveil the evil forces behind it.

1 of 2 people found this review helpful Ram Gopal Varma's thriller is seriously, decidedly, indisputably funny -- in the ridiculous dialogues recycled by the characters(seems the writers ran out of words), in the forced, schmaltzy romantic interludes, and even the way almost all the characters in this ensemble cast are hurriedly bumped off or turn suicidal so that the lead pair can carry on with their lives...

1 of 2 people found this review helpful There is not a single moment where you would fear from watching what is ahead. 'Agyaat' is rather only a thriller. It does not bore - not except for a prolonged introduction to the scare factor...

1 of 2 people found this review helpful ?Agyaat?, on the other hand, is an insult to the scary genre it claims to belong to. The film is anything but frightening as it ends up mocking the audience intelligence owing to its sub-standard script, drab performances and sluggish direction.

Agyaat is completely cold meat. It neither thrills nor chills with its repetitive running-for-life sequences and its absolutely infuriating end which offers no explanation whatsoever for the scurrying and screaming...

1 of 2 people found this review helpful "Agyaat" is just another project from the RGV factory which even raises doubts on being directed by the Master himself. May be he looked after the project as the caretaker and only gave his inputs towards the climax...
