Durgesh Tiwary’s View : When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch this movie in free time as trailer looks engaging and movie was planned for digital premiere.
Little girls begin to disappear and their bodies are found soon after in the town of Mussoorie. Police officer Megha and forensic officer Johnny join hands to nab the killer.
Forensic story doesn’t excite or thrill although, there are few intriguing moments but that is it. Screenplay lacks the excitement of a thriller and hence fails to involve. Direction is also very ordinary. He has not been able to create the atmosphere needed to enjoy a thriller. After retaining some of the original story’s elements, this Hindi remake includes a number of unexpected twists that create a completely unique experience. A whodunnit crime thriller requires a gloomy aesthetic, which the film has in spades.
Right from the beginning, the intense atmosphere and dark tone sets up the mood of the film. The dramatic twists and turns of the story, which are required for these genres, as well as the fact that it is unpredictable from the beginning, make it the most intriguing aspect. The film depicts in great detail how forensic investigators examine crime scenes for evidence, such as blood, fluid, fingerprints, or residue, in order to determine how a crime occurred. Another highlight is the setting of a small town and the naturally beautiful shots of the mountains and the woods. But overall we have seen many such thrillers and this one’s failed to engage. My view on this movie Not Recommended
