Case of Kondana

Movie Review: Case of Kandana - A Complete Waste of Time

"Case of Kandana" is hands down one of the worst films I've seen in years. The plot is completely incoherent, leaving you confused from the first scene to the last. It feels like the filmmakers didn't even bother with a script. The pacing is atrocious-scenes drag on endlessly without any sense of direction.

The acting? Absolutely dreadful. The lead actors seem to be sleepwalking through their roles, delivering lines with zero emotion or depth. The supporting cast doesn't fare any better, coming across as if they're in a high school play rather than a professional film.

The cinematography is lazy, with poorly framed shots and lackluster visuals. Even the soundtrack is grating, failing to match the tone of any given scene. The special effects, if you can call them that, look outdated by at least a decade.

I kept hoping for some redeeming moment, but it never came. Instead, I just watched as it became a bigger trainwreck with each passing minute. Honestly, this was two hours of my life I will never get back. If you're thinking of watching "Case of Kandana," save yourself the misery and skip it.

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.

Heard good reviews about the film but regret for missing in theatres one of the recent best thriller....there is no suspense but still managed to bring you for seat edge....can easily termed as finest thriller.... Films starts with mid phase then slowly it picks up after 40 mins for the night to start it's then one night story.... traveling in 4 tracks is really keeps you engaged ..some main character will hunt you even after watching the film...how one night changed everyone's life....the subject doesn't focus on regular hero and villian something new is tired....and can easily termed as finest thriller....

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.
