What’s Hot
- Udayan Banerjee does a real neat job with his intimidating style to convincingly portray the investigating officer. His character sketching is also given due importance and highlighted by the way he approaches the investigation will all guns blazing.
- Arushi exudes confidence as the dominating Ivanna with her annoying attitude towards her co-stars and in-the-face responses during the interrogation. Her stubborn responses during the merciless interrogation scenes showcases the skilled actor in her.
- Nitin Krishna Menon and Avinash Narayan score well with their work in the music department to churn out some fantastic background scores that add a lot of flair to the movie experience to make it an engaging watch.
- Dialogues penned by the director Ajay Govind are crisp, incisive and hard hitting. Each character get their share of impressive dialogues to make this a well written and well spoken movie on the whole.
What’s Not
- Banerjee’s character goes overboard on many occasions during the investigations, especially when directed at suspects in the case and even gets physical on one of them. He mostly treats them as one would expect to treat convicts or regular offenders, which takes the focus away from achieving closure for the case at hand.
- A couple of short vocals placed in the movie prove to be distracting partly due to the amateurish playback and partly due to their jerky inclusion for very short durations without a pressing need.
- Barring the scenes involving Banerjee, Arushi and Sukhesh, the other characters do not maintain the intensity of the proceedings with some amateurish and disinterested acting. This makes the movie oscillate between the good and the bad moments to provide an inconsistent experience.
