News18's Titas Chowdhury has given 2 stars to Vivek Agnihotri's 'The Bengal Files', which focuses on the Great Calcutta Killings of 1946 and the Noakhali riots. "The question is, how much violence is too much violence?...The weakest link of The Bengal Files is its 3-hour-25-minutes runtime," the review read. "In a nutshell, Agnihotri's...narrative goes haywire," it added.
