Shubra Gupta | The Indian Express: 2/5A slick war film. Uri on the whole keeps you engaged despite some clunky passages. It’s always good to have movies in which the soldiers look real, even if the action is buoyed by such dialogues as 'unhe Kashmir chaihye, humein unka sar' ... Full Review

Lakshana N Palat | India Today: 3/5Vicky Kaushal, who had a golden year in 2018, starts 2019 with a bang. There are no complaints about his acting, though at points you want to see more of Vicky's acting than his action ... Full Review

Anita Iyer | Khaleej Times: 3.5/5Although the film is based on a highly-publicised event, the director manages to keep us on tenterhooks, right from the moment the army starts its mission in the second half. Your heart pounds with tension as small teams of army men venture into unknown, foreign territories to take on the terrorists ... Full Review

Shilajit Mitra | The New Indian Express: 2/5At least video games let you skip the cut-scenes. That's a luxury Aditya Dhar's debut feature, Uri: The Surgical Strike, doesn't allow.

Rajeev Masand | Book My Show: 3/5Ultimately there’s a lot to admire here, but because it can’t shake off its unmistakably filmi sensibility – which is inherently at odds with the no-nonsense tone it aspires for – it proves thrilling only in parts. The film is too long at nearly 2 hours and 20 minutes and as a result, it runs but never flies ... Full Review

R.M. Vijayakar | India West: 3.5/5A Faithful, Forceful Film but Occasionally Dry. Do visit “URI” for the story it tells. If you are Indian enough, you will oversee or dismiss the flaws.

Pavni Jain | India TV: 3.5/5There is no denying that Aditya did his finest job in Uri. From the introduction to the tight frames and use of point-of-view shots during gun-loaded action scenes depicts that the director has successfully brought his imagination on the silver screen ... Full Review

Vickey Lalwani | Spotboye: 3.5/5Uri was not an easy film to make, not an easy film to act in either. You can bet your last shirt on that. The quietly smart Vicky Kaushal turns avenger and raises his voice this time ... Full Review
Ashwin Bharadwaj | Lens Men Reviews: 3/5Uri : The Surgical Strike is a technically brilliant film in terms of production values and quality of visuals along with perfect sound design. The script here is problematic on many levels, but luckily it’s not a J P Dutta kind of war movie ... Full Review
