HIT: The First Case

HIT:THE FIRST CASE is a very sensible,well directed and well edited movie with competent performances by everyone. Although it was not a very challenging role as the one he played in "TRAPPED"RajKumar Rao delivered a very focused,convincing and realistic performance in this murder mystery.

Sadly good movies like these, don't draw huge audiences like a useless film like Bhool Bhuaiya does. In the entire theatre it was only myself and my wife. Alas somehow unlike the fairy tales of yesteryear,in which we had happy endings,in recent times useless movies make much much much more money than good quality films.

A classic example of this is the collection of most movies done by Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.

7/10.

Hit: The first case

_A review by Rajesh Puvvada_

The ray of sunshine in Pune after weeks of gloomy weather brought me out of the house. I chose this movie just get out without having any expectations. But Ola!! This one definitely did impress me.

I was given to understand that this one is a remake. But I have no idea of the first make. So my review will be unbiased

It's a whodunnit saga cantered around a eminent but a psychologically challenged police officer. Many leads unleashes a wild goose chase and intensifies the suspense dramatically.

The plot rests on a extreme relationship which is revealed without a rush in the end.

The screen play is well paced with all characters playing their part aptly. Rajkumar Rao ones again holds the balance without letting the sides to tilt. Sanya Malhotra does justice to her role There is no character exaggeration. There are no unnecessary ornamentations, and hence the movie wraps up in 134 mins flat. The music score is decent and fires up well during the intense moments.

I am going with a 8/10. Every bit is well knit, and HIT is well poised to be a hit.!!

People rating it anything below 7 have no sense of appreciation. Going by bollywood standards, this is absolute treat.

For starters there are plenty of suspects, but no obvious ones or clear motives, which usually happens in a thriller movie where you are able to predict as to who's the culprit. But in this you can't till the very end. Rajkumar rao nails his role like usual. I love how they gave some hints and moments of his past throughout the movie but never gave any details about it and saved it for the second part. That's beautifully done, as it doesn't leave the plotholes in first part, but does create a base and curiosity for the next one.

It's a must watch movie. Probably the best of bollywood this year.

Now this is not any bollywood detective movie like the recently released OTT flick from one Canadian kumar. It's far from it, far better in every sense.

1)there is no song and dance at the drop of a hat 2)no sudden twist or turn of the plot apart from the discoveries leading to the capture of the killer 3) there's actual detective work shown in the movie, and there's lot of it.

4) success of apprehending the suspect is shared by the whole department rather than being a typical one man effort.

5)the protagonist will be right in front of you the whole time yet you keep on guessing till the very end Conclusion: a really good gripping storyline with solid performance from all the actors. This is not some hit or miss movie. This is a should be hit movie based completely on its merit.

HITTheFirstCase is a well made suspense thriller a genre I like the most. Rajkummar Rao as inspector Vikram nailed another character. Although films publicity remained weak it has created buzz among the movie goers Director Kolanu Sailesh has done a wonderful job. The movie keep you hooked till the climax when the culprits identity revealed. Its writing is engaging which not let you to leave your seats. Although there was not much for Sanya Malhotra to do in the film her presence was felt in the movie.
