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 The special effects, if you can call them that, look outdated by at least a decade.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.

Vijay Raghavendra and Bhavana does justice to the characters played . Rangayana Raghu yet again performs splendidly as a support actor. Petrol Prasanna does a good job playing a cop role. Seemed very realistic. The director managed to realistically portray the police and situations. The hierarchy in police system is wonderfully showcased. The struggle of the people who rely on daily wages is aptly presented by Saajan Kataria. While these are the good parts the movie is bogged down by slow screenplay,the suspense part is predictable. The second half is predictable and audience seems to know what's gonna happen next . If the second half was tightened a bit would have been engaging for audience.

One of the most pathetic movies I've seen in recent years. Abhorrent screenplay, no story line. It was literally a mistake that I clicked on this joke. Im a big fan of Malayali thrillers and thought let's try a Kannada story! Nope, big mistake.

I still can't fathom what was the point of putting the death stress of the panipuri seller, when Wilson could just escape it by saying that he himself is a police officer and found the body. He would have saved 3 officers ! That spot had no witnesses at all. ACP laxmi tries hard but instead of a strong woman, she comes out as a rude pseudo feminist who thinks being strong means being disrespectful. The goon angle was so unnecessary.

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....

Loved the movie.

It was fast faced. Never felt bored. Story oriented movie with superb acting.

Vijaya Ragavendra, Bhavana and Raghu anna have done justice to their roles.

The screen play, bgm, concept etc. Were too good to explain 😇

Director Devi Prasad puts an interesting spin on the thriller template that we are used to. The all-important crime at the fictional place, Kondana, and the incidents that lead to it are purely accidental. It's refreshing to see the protagonist as an innocent on the run and one who is constantly gripped with fear and guilt.

Ending could be been better but must watch movie.
