The overall movie is not so interesting. Audience may like the first part of the movie but the second part is quite lousy. Although the entry of Guru (Arpan Thapa) adds a bit of spice to the viewers, the story of the movie seems to be lengthening unnecessarily. Actors have done well in their part and every scene featuring Arpan Thapa is entertaining. The language used in the movie is also considerable and the use of the language used by general public and also by the Nepali police force has made the characters more realistic. Though action parts are supported by strong background music, it could not be as good as it could have been because of the styles used, which are usually seen in other action movies. Although the music in this movie seems to be appreciable, the direction seems to have done injustice to his direction.

Overall, Batch No 16 is a movie with a simple story that lacks some entertaining spices but when you go and watch this movie you will not regret.
