If are a regular Korean movie viewer, like me, you would feel that this is a regular action comedy.

The production team should be appreciated for their intention of bringing in the original to Telugu audience by genuinely buying rights. There are some directorial flaws with characterisation and accent. But it is a an Ok outcome. It is not easy to bring in Korean thoroughness in work by every movie team.

The cast was good. Music could have been better.

The suspense could have been made tight for telugu audience who would guess the storyline at 70% movie progress.

The lead actresses were good on performance. Comedy was good but not sterio typing.

Hindi movies can have some ridiculous action scenes, if bahubali can get away with it, then by all means Shalini and damini should, but by all means, this movie had one of the best action scenes by women, no stunt doubles, its not perfect but you definitely see the work the actresses put in. Action choreography was good too, supporting characters are forgettable though. No dance number, it definitely was not needed. No stunt doubles, movie trope is familiar but not cliche, also they showed after math injuries, all in all, a good movie in its own rights, they are definitely things that could be improved but it's ok.

Great initiative - one of those rare women centric police/action-cum-comedy movie with realistic action sequences and fun moments. Love how light hearted the movie starts, and slowly starts churning out the real story. Starts off as a typical college/University based movie plot and evolves into a more serious story. Nivetha Thomas and Regina Cassandra show excellent command over the language (Telugu) and share a beautiful rapport on screen. If you are looking for something sensible and fun to watch, over lunch or over dinner, you could add this to your list! One of Netflix's good additions lately.

The movie is a girl power action comedy. Two women from different backgrounds meet at a police training. They resolve their differences and become good friends. They solve a kidnap case like they are james bond. I was under an impression that Indian cinema is slowly distancing itself from one man hitting 100 people. But this one is one woman hiyying 100s of people. A typical action movie with no big surprises.

The first half od the movie is funny and breezes through the eye. The second part is actually the heavy weight. The stunt sequences in the second half were great. Showing all other police officials in a bad light was unwarranted. The reason for the kidnap was novel and was interesting. They could have added more power to villain. That might have helped. The climax lacked that drama.

All in all, we can watch the movie once. Not more than that.

A simple story with nice comedy and actions. Both actresses were great and a nice to see such more movies in future that are more women actors than men. This will bring more equality in the entertainment industry too.

The film cinematography is also good but could have been better.

Even though movie is not in Hindi but it was great watching with subtitles and Bollywood should learn how to come with such stories and explore more than making same old masla.

Content should be interesting not boring and at the same time not too much of hype. Which this movie is able to deliver it right.

It's a go.
