People on social media are saying the makers did a smart job by releasing it directly on OTT instead of theaters. The trailer itself was so dark and depressing that no one would have ventured into theaters to watch such a film.
With its mix of sports, drama, and emotions, Test promises to be a compelling watch when it lands on Netflix next April.
