HIT: The 3rd Case

Before I delve into the issues I have, I would like to express my admiration for certain aspects of the film, first & foremost, Nani's performance, and the script's able handling of intense scenes, be it the investigative segments or the climactic confrontation in the final half of the story.

Now coming to the problems, I found that the whole plot lacked emotional resonance; it couldn't effectively harness emotions in a meaningful way.

Now as for someone who enjoys relentless gore and bloodshed, I found the kills and the overall bloodbath in the final hour to be engaging. However, I was left with a sense of dissatisfaction, mainly because these moments of violence did not feel 'earned' or 'justified.' They appeared to be mere byproducts of style and encashing the present day trend rather than yielding substance with some meaning.

Whilst, Nani's performance left a significant impression on me, his character could have benefited from deeper material.

If the filmmakers had taken the time to elaborate on his troubled past, it would have enriched his character and provided a more compelling understanding of his eccentric personality.

Hit 3: One of the craziest and most violent movie in the Indian movie history!

Director takes us through a genre of Kill Bill and John Wick, with a blend of investigative psycho thriller and a touch of Indian romance.

Nani goes berserk with full fledge violence ripping and cutting baddies apart. One of his best in terms of anger, blood boiling emotions and hair rising action sequences.

Srinidhi Shetty plays a pivotal role.

The plot keeps you hooked till the end and background music is terrific.

Few pleasant surprises in the climax that gives you pure goosebumps.

It is only for 18+ audience as it has plenty of gore. Not for faint hearted or eye closing audience!

Compared to first and second cases this one does not have much twists it's is just a regular crime story but the taking the screenplay NANI acting, violence and gore scenes of the film make it amazing. For those who like action and violence will definitely enjoy the film but for people who are intrested in the story may not enjoy it much. But still visuals and technically it is very good. Even the action choreography was nice with utmost realism like not putting finger on the trigger all the time handling gun professional and ofcourse in some parts of action movie team took cinematic liberty like chopping of thighs in one swing which is impossible for humans as thighs are one of the hardest bones in human body. And the long take during action was awesome it gave a vibe of extraction. When nani's body is shown in the end with all the muscles you will be convinced that this person can really kill as many people as he did on the screen. Cameo's gave high at the end of the movie.

HIT was a suspense, murder mystery thriller.

This was more of an action movie.

I was promised Biryani, I got Korean fire noodles.

It's not bad, but it was not what was promised.

This is not subverting expectations.

And this too fell into the recent trend of gore-action, follows in the same path as leo, kill, marco etc.

What next?

We went from blood, hitting women, dismembering body parts, killing kids, what's next?

Audience will get used to this too.

And to give the shock factor, the makers will have to up the violence. So what's next?

Yes, people may like it. Movie will make money.

But it's not my cup of tea.

If i want tea, I'll go buy tea, don't sell me coffee, and ask wasn't it nice.

TLDR: If you're a fan of HIT series, you can treat it as a normal movie and skip.

If you just want to watch a movie, you can consider it.

As expected, the movie is more of a brutal action thriller with survival element, than a procedural investigative thriller, so yeah, that's bit disappointing I had so many apprehensions about Nani's portrayal in this movie, but surprisingly, he's the major asset of the film, he get the attitude and pitch of the character right, though lacks the physique to make those action scenes look believable, nothing much to speak about rest of the cast First half is good, keeps you hooked throughout, despite the lack of high. But the second half is a bummer, becoming a survival drama with heavy dose of violence, and one too many cameos Technically, movie lacks technical finesse, cinematography by Sanu Varghese is so shaky in those action scenes, which already look so routine and nothing outstanding, second half needed some editing by Karthika Srinivas, music and BGM by Mickey are generic and Dull.

Coming to Sailesh Kolanu, his major strengths are attention to details in those investigations, sadly he deviated from them since Saindhav and HIT 3 suffers the same fate
