Case of Kondana

One of the most pathetic movies I've seen in recent years. Abhorrent screenplay, no story line. It was literally a mistake that I clicked on this joke. Im a big fan of Malayali thrillers and thought let's try a Kannada story! Nope, big mistake.

I still can't fathom what was the point of putting the death stress of the panipuri seller, when Wilson could just escape it by saying that he himself is a police officer and found the body. He would have saved 3 officers ! That spot had no witnesses at all. ACP laxmi tries hard but instead of a strong woman, she comes out as a rude pseudo feminist who thinks being strong means being disrespectful. The goon angle was so unnecessary.

I watched this movie expecting it to be a fair thriller with a little bit of mystery element in it. The movie in the first 20 minutes kept the hopes high. If the audience is a thriller is mystery fan, this movie will disappoint you badly. The different story and timelines which the director tries to connect are done so in a very vague manner. Most of all it fails to give that edge of the seat feel. As a thriller fan, there's this back of the mind eagerness to know what's next, but this storyline especially due to the bad direction fails to build up the momentum and at the very least you don't feel thrill and suspense to me what happens next Story will sound good if it's narrated, but only a good director can do justice to the audience by bringing it live on screen

Lost 2 hours worth of time. Everything is predictable about the movie.

Completely waste of time, not recommending anyone to watch.

Action sequences: average Graphics: below average Cinematography's: average Story : below average Acting : the one star is for acting only.

Superb thriller movie with best performances from hero and shows lot of variations.

This is classing example which shows screeplay is the key success and not the graphics or fights or item songs.

Another gem from kannada film industry..

Hats off to director and BGM is super.

ACP Lakhsmi (Bhavana) is on the recent burglary case involving serial murders. Newly joined ASI Wilson (Vijay Raghavendra) is reporting at the same station as ACP Lakshmi. He has a doctor girlfriend whose brother is opposing their marriage and Wilson is also yet to pay the bribe for his posting which he got through influence. There is also a migrant Panipuri worker struggling to collect enough money for his son's treatment. Hot-headed Wilson messes with a local goon who already has a beef with ACP Lakshmi. How all these people's lives get impacted due to the individuals' actions forms rest of the story.

Devi Prasad Shetty has better command on the screenplay this time and do not repeat the mistakes he committed with Seetharam Benoy. He has been gifted with the talented cast which is almost same as his first film and the new additions being Bhavana and Rangayana Raghu. With the cast chipping in commendable performances, Devi Prasad Shetty ensures to narrate a gripping thriller which has a fast paced narrative. The characterization of the principal characters stand out and plays an important role in the narrative. The blemishes are few and the pre-climax fight could've been executed better. Apart from that, Case of Kondana makes up a for a good watch and the new director delivers in his 2nd venture.
