First review for “Con City”
The first reactions shared on X show that the film made a positive impression on early audiences.One of the earliest reviews praised the film’s writing and the way it handled its central premise. Critics wrote, “#ConCity – 3.75/5. A gripping crime comedy slow-burning thriller. All four leads are well written and have solid performances. The movie revolves around a unique scam, and while stories of this type often have logical holes, the strong writing covers them up cleverly. The humor works well in places, the intermittent performances are effective, and the entire second half revolves around a big con that makes the narrative engaging. Although there are a few parts where the pace slows down, the film remains entertaining throughout. Overall, a good watch. “
