Debutante director Shawn Arranha makes an impact with his story telling technique and grip on his subject. Keeping the running time of exactly 105 minutes, never once does he deviate from the main plot or tries to pack in excess baggage. What works in favour of Hide N Seek is the fact that it remains true to its genre and delivers exactly what one expects from a slasher movie that's just the right amount of edge of the seat moments and a very impulsive climax. After a long time a good suspense thriller has hit the marquee, kudos to writer and producer of the movie, Apoorva Lakhia, for that.

Purab Kohli shows his versatility in a very difficult role. Arjan Bajwa playing to the gallery manages to leave a good impression. Sameer Kochhar fits the part to the T. Ayaaz Khan is impressive as well. Amongst the gals, Mrinalini Sharma is good whereas former Miss India Amruta Patki makes a decent debut.

The editing and background music score helps in increasing the impact of the proceedings.

The movie may not boast of big star names but it works big time, thanks to the tight script, excellent direction and remarkable performances. Don't miss it if you are suspense thriller fan.
