The ETimes review shared a mixed but fair opinion. It said, "TTT asks for too much credit eventually. Once a woman chases a persistent suitor into the forest with a blade, once shotguns emerge, once ruffians lob homemade grenades at wedding decorations, the make-believe world you'd accepted tips into something sillier than it can support.

You likely won’t recall much of the film in a few days, but it is a good festival watch. There’s craft in knowing your lane and staying in it."

Our review matches what many viewers are feeling. The film may not be perfect, but it works as a fun watch during the festive season.
