London Confidential

Never expected her to act so well in this one. The cast and the story is well portrayed this deserves to be made into a web series.

The movie felt engaging and no nonsense. Everything was going smooth until the end. It just ended abruptly and felt like missing the thrill it promised. The ending left me wanting more from the story. The movie felt empty because of how it ended so easily without much suspense.

The RAW agent tracking that source is bumped off and so his fellow associate Uma (Mouni Roy) is on to it. Suspecting the work of a mole within, Uma seeks help of the Indian Ambassador to UK, Nirupama (Kulraj Randhawa) even as more honey traps and murders take place. Created by S. Hussain Zaidi, London Confidential works more like a whodunit than a true blue espionage thriller. Every time Uma gets close to a suspect, he or she is bumped off (needlessly) and the needle of suspicion shifts to another fellow. In this way, half the supporting cast is either kidnapped or killed. Set in picturesque London city, the film passes muster on the technical front but doesnt engage you the way a spy thriller should. The culprit lies in the casting. Mouni Roy doesn't suit the lead role she's saddled with. Purab Kohli looks utterly unconvincing as a RAW officer. The surprise element of the film is Kulraj Randhawa playing Nirupama who not only looks gorgeous but delivers a graceful performance. Hoping to see her in more films now. London Confidential is not at all bad for an OTT viewing. The limited run time of just one hour fifteen minutes with no song dance routine works in its favour.

After a long time saw a Bollywood movie which was so gripping .

It is a lame espionage thriller with a dull plot. Mouni Roy gave an average performance and Purab Kohli was unconvincing as a RAW agent. None of the supporting casts done justice to their character. Action sequences are not well choreographed. Ewan Mulligan's cinematography is good.
