Wild Dog

Performance and some scenes are the only positives in this film. The film is less engaging because of its story. Without any story the film extends the movie and that to at the end almost like half an hour is wasted for showing how the team is crossing the border and that part is very less engaging as it is very much predictable. As an action thriller with this kind of story must deal with a lot of action scenes, but they did not show much action scenes. While watching this movie personally I never came into a seat edge experience like 'Uri : the surgical strike' or 'Raid Redemption'. The film could have been better be more interesting plot and with more action scenes. That's it for this film. One time watchable, can try if your bored. Available on Netflix.

Despite the 2 hr duration, the film is bit slow but it has definitely a good content. No nonsense and no deviations in the plot. Some similarities with Uri & Baby films. Climax is very engaging and amazing action sequences. Overall a decent comeback from Nag after Devadas. We are not good with numbers. Given the low budget involved and apart from Nag, the rest all cast is almost new, so remuneration costs will also be less, and having the pre Netfix deal in hand, we think Wild Dog would end up as a profitable venture.

Wild Dog is not new in terms of story, you may have seen this story in many films like Baby, Phantom, also in Family Man. This film also falls under the same genre.

No over the top scenes are there, it fully focused on it's story. Screenplay is very fast and engaging specially in the 2nd half. That's why you'll not get bored while watching.

Some scenes shines very well specially one FOLLOWING scene is there, that is executed exceptionally.

Ashishor Solomon in his debut feature has done a brilliant job. The lead character is not shown in a heroic way. They've tried to show us everything in a very real way. We all know it's a patriotic film but patriotism is not shown by pointing out our eyes, that's another positive thing of this film. It's a very well researched film, so I think you should watch Wild Dog for it's DETAILING.

Available on Netflix.

Wild dog is a tense action thriller that doesn't relent as soon as the action starts. The set-up isn't something we haven't seen before, but the film is well paced, and Nagarjuna Akkineni is more than capable in the lead role. There's no cliche romance, no singing and dancing, it is about soldiers who feel obligated to do the right thing no matter the cost. A solid film about good guys vs bad guys and soldiers' unrelenting love and devotion for their country.

This movie is a one time watchable flick. Plot is similar to some movies we already watched. So this not that impressive. If you have lot of free time, you can worth a watch.
