Seetharaam Benoy Case Number Eighteen

Good movie thrilling story line. You can keep viewing without being distracted. It has emotional ending.

You can invest your time to watch this. I enjoyed this movie.

I generally watch suspense thrillers n when I started watching this movie ,I was not expecting anything at all .I find the movie was quite engaging with tight screenplay. Performance by cast is upto the mark . The climax could have been bit more different .

The film is about a police Inspector who is assigned a new posting and as soon as he reaches there, there is a robbery. He comes to know of many robberies that has happened in that area and tries to find out who is behind them while slowly the story takes another turn beyond robberies.

The first half is not pacy but I might just forgive it for it's a suspense drama and not a thriller. The film has some good acting but more importantly, the supporting cast look really apt for the part. For eg, the constables. Good casting. I am not happy with an over weight Vijay been cast as a police inspector. He is a good actor but to make an inspector look authentic, the casting had to be someone leaner. The wife role, though small, was a bad casting. Her dialogue delivery was unbearable. The dialogues in general weren't that great as it felt Shetty himself wrote some of it as the Tulu sense hits me sometimes. It is surprising that no policeman carries any weapons throughout the film.

Generally some directors would have included husband-wife's romantic moments song(s). But thank god there aren't any songs to spoil the film's pace or the grip.

The film's climax is badly written but ends well though and because it's only 2 hours, one can indulge themselves in it.

Available on Prime.

Can watch with family.

Good Movie. Everybody acted well in the movie. BGM in the movie was good. The movie was interesting and thrilling at 1st half. Good Movie.

The overall story is to good and unique. There is no distraction of songs and other unwanted masala. The second half keeps us on the edge of the seat. But, the climax spoils the intensity. Not because of the story, but the execution which is below par. Police inspector, acting like a helpless kid to stop the murder spoils the mood. Adding to that, the villain, reserved to make the appearance only during climax fails, to do justice to the role . He fails to create that menace very much necessary to keep the intensity. Instead, the police is made to look helples.

First half an hour is boring. They could have made it much more interesting or even trimmedit.

Except Vijay Raghavendra, every other character is new and don't have an iota of acting skill. Though it is ok in the beginning, in the climax, it's all exposed. Also, the inspector arriving alone to arrest the criminal without the gun, even after knowing that he is also targeted by the criminal is just an example of many loop holes in the narration.

Though we can bear all the drawbacks keeping the low budget and lack of experience, there is no reason for the shabby camera work. It is as if a 5 year old kid holding the camera, unable to keep it steady.

Another fact that is not at all acceptable is the glorification of smoking, completely unnecessary.
