O Assassinato 3

In MURDER3, erotica and sensuality which are the prime ingredients of a Bhatt enterprise take a backseat and first time director Vishesh Bhatt experiments with the noir genre through the crevices of infidelity and betrayal.The idea is unoriginal , it's a complete official rip-off of a Columbian movie but the treatment with its unconventional twist and turns makes it a watchable fare.

Murder3 picks up momentum only in the post interval portions with some edgy thrills that Vishesh pours in , nevertheless he still has a far way to go when it comes to refined film-making skills. Music has been the forte of this camp and Murder3 satisfies us with its melodious chart-busters.With the plot restricted to the confines of the seemingly haunted house, it still shines with its cinematography and colorful shots. Dialogues have been penned with frivolity and at times appear too funny. Note this , when Randeep is questioned by Sara how he likes to stay in such a godforsaken place , he replies "nature ke kareeb rehna lagta hai mujhe.." and next we see him doing fashion photography with some skimpily clad models ! Of the cast, Randeep Hooda acting stays mediocre and I would say that his potential is still untapped here.Aditi Rao tries hard to look seductive but she falls flat. The actress also definitely needed to put more depth to her character and the way she emotes looks raw.Sara Loren looks glamorous, has the oomph quotient in abundance and she tries to bring some authenticity to her hard-edged character.But the leading ladies fail to create the sizzling chemistry with their hero.Rest of the cast is ignorable.

I go with 2.5 out of 5 for Murder 3.It could have worked in a much better way had it been told with an emotional punch and enthusiasm.

Murder 3 review:

Just 2 points worth noting. One, Mr. Mahesh Bhatt owns a huge collection of obscure foreign film dvds which he keeps copying in to various franchises of jisms, murders, jannats etc. Two, such bedroom stories need Emraan Hashmi. Randeep Hooda just aint good at it!! Heehee.

This is a copy of Spanish film called the hidden face.can u make a film on Ur own? idiots

It could have been better if they had an own script for the movie. The movie is a copy of the Spanish movie "THE HIDDEN FACE(2011)". It has copied every bit of the movie right from the start where the recording is seen. the Spanish movie has some frontal nudity.That was the only difference seen. The most awaited movie in the series of MURDER was released and was not a movie that should have been come under the title Murder. Given Title must have some reason at some point but there was none in the movie.There was not even a single murder in the movie or anyone had intention for a murder.The movie was not so good compared to its previous parts.

The third installment in the Murder series and the official Bollywood Remake of the Colombian thriller The Hidden Face, 'Murder 3' is A Fair Thriller, that sums up as a one-time watch.

'Murder 3' Synopsis: A wildlife photographer tries to solve the mystery of his missing girlfriend.

'Murder 3' has a solid first-hour & manages to keep its viewer glued. The second-hour dips, but the culmination is executed nicely. The twist in the tale does offer shock value. Mahesh Bhatt's Writing has meat, but dips in the second-hour. Vishesh Bhatt's Direction is atmospheric. Cinematography is first-class. Editing is sharp. Music is foot-tapping.

Performance-Wise: Randeep Hooda is sincere, as always. Aditi Rao Hydari is first-rate. Sara Loren is restricted to a few expressions. Rajesh Shringarpure is capable.

On the whole, 'Murder 3' can be viewed once.
