First reviews of ‘Con City’
The initial responses shared on X show that the film has left an impression on the early viewers.One of the earliest reviews praised the film’s writing and the film’s handling of its central premise. The reviewer wrote, “#ConCity – 3.75/5. Crime-Comedy Slow-Burn Thriller. All Four Leads Are Well Written & Give Solid Performances.” The film revolves around a unique illusion and these kinds of stories are usually obscure, but the strong writing subtly covers them here. The jokes work very well in some places, the premise is well developed and the entire second half revolves around one big twist that keeps the story coherent. Although Few Episodes Slow Down Here and There, The Full Movie Is Still Fun Every Time. Overall, a great watch.”
