In a release strategy being witnessed more often, Red Notice was the latest to hit theatres for a limited release for only a week before venturing on an Over-the-Top platform. The  Dwayne Johnson-Ryan Reynolds-Gal Gadot starrer hit Netflix on Friday. 

The initial reviews on the movie had surfaced when critics watched the movie a day before the release on November 12 and audiences in the United States of America caught the theatrical release. However, in many countries, Netflix will be the only available platform to watch it. Many netizens, including in India, took to Twitter to share their views on Red Notice, as it was released on Friday. 

Indians, other netizens review Red Notice  after its Netflix premiere

Much like its international premiere, Red Notice received mixed reviews from netizens in India and other parts of the world.

One Indian wrote that it was 'not a movie', and just an 'ego boost' for the Hollywood superstars, and added that the movie lacked script, depth of characterisation, storytelling and the ability to extract emotions from the audience.  

A Twitter user wrote, "This Red hot heist kept me entertained until the very end, A fun 2 hours to spend with the 3 biggest movie stars on the planet. Good lord! those sweeping drone shots in the action sequences were slick & I'm all in for the sequel.(sic)"

Another tweeted that it had 'lots of Action, twists and Entertainment'. A Twitter user hailed the 'fantabulous performance' by the lead cast and that every scene was 'interesting.' One more wrote that the presence of the three stars were enough. 

One felt it was 'super funny' and credited Ryan Reynolds for it.

As far as the reviews from other parts of the world were concerned, a netizen from Oman called Gal Gadot one of the 'worst actors.'

From 'absolutely amazing film' to 'deathly dull', the reviews were in either extreme. 

Red Notice has been penned and directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber. The film is an action-comedy revolving around a red corner notice issued against the most wanted criminals, when the three characters, one of them an FBI profiler, come together amid plans for a heist.
