Forensic

Forensic; as the title may conspicuously suggest, this is an out-and-out murder mystery thriller with some corresponding ingredients coming straight from the field of forensic research. The premise promised to entangle the onlookers in its veil of palpable tension and trickery and I'm happy to announce it duly delivered.

However, If we put all these investigative facets to one side, we are left with crass humor and a poorly chopped-out screenplay. Thank goodness, the performances for the most part are applaudable.

All the primary figures did excellent, even if some of them were a bit theatrical, a bit over the top at times. Nevertheless, it's a neatly made thriller that works primarily due to the story being told as well as the intertwined dynamics of all the characters.

I watched the original Malayalam movie a few months ago and was really impressed. The hindi version is good too even better if you haven't watched the original. The writers have also tweaked the storyline. Radhika was brilliant for the role; can't believe we see so less of her. Vikrant Massey could've done a better job as the easy going yet genius role of the forensic expert. Vindu Dara Singh was a waste and Prachi Desai was decent in her limited role.

Talking about the negatives, there are quite a few moments where the movie loses its grip and you'll be yawning. The screenplay could've been tighter and the unnecessary drama which had no relation to the story should've been avoided. The eerie backdrop of Mussoorie was perfect for the movie but the BGM sadly doesn't match with it.

It is still a decent watch, do give it a shot if you have nothing to do this weekend.

I've not seen the "original" movie so this is a all together new film for me and I liked it.

The plot is simple. A female police investigator works with a forensic specialist/old flame to solve a series of murders in which, young girls are killed on their birthdays.

I thought this had a decent story that moved at a steady pace and kept a suspenseful atmosphere. I've read where other reviewers believe this to be a bad copy of the original so if I liked this, maybe I'll look the other one up and see how it compares. I liked it though and I wouldn't mind recommending it for those who like crime dramas or thrillers.

The storyline of this movie is just amazing, and the acting is also good. However, the story could be more batter. They did a very good work in acting. Overall, I really enjoyed a lot.

Film review Forensic streaming on Zee 5 #sanjuzzreviews #ForensicOnZEE5 #RadhikaApte #VikrantMassey #ZEE5 A remake of the 2020 Malyalam film with the same name starring Tovino Thomas & Mamta Mohandas , the plot involves a serial killer who is on the loose in Mussoorie, brutally killing young girls on their birthdays.

Radhika Aapte as the police officer investigating the case and Vikrant Massey as the forensics guy look through the clues and try to bring the killer to book. Will the duo who have a romantic past forget their differences & emerge victors is what this film is all about.

Cinematography is good, hilly terrain, misty mountains have been beautifully showcased!!

Aapte and Massey have given decent performances even though Massey seems to be hamming in a few scenes. Rest of the cast isn't bad either with Vindu Dara Singh, Ved Prakash Mathur, Rohit Roy & Prachi Desai lending good support to the protagonists.

Even though the twist in the end is nice and virtually inconceivable, it could've been shot better. It lacks the shock value and fails to create adrenaline rush moments. This cudve been done better.

If you don't compare it with the Mallu original, this one's a decent one time watch.

My rating .. 3/5.. Adios 🙂
