It's copy of Spanish movie "The corpse of anna fritz "includes all copied dialogues. Director trying to make the audience fool.

Taking a somewhat inspired story and attempting to do something insightful with it, 'Husma' is unfortunately dead on arrival with excessive melodrama, cliched story-beats and sub-par acting.

The only main thing worthy of note here is the tasteful nudity provided by the main actress, Chamathka Lakmini, who truly dazzles in her first role by trying to give a convincing physical performance. She succeeds in most part thanks mainly to the command of her absolutely beautiful physique. This alone is worth the price of admission, but it may not be enough for many.

For even she fails to establish an emotional connection with the audience at the end because she's left to struggle with a constrained script and what's obviously some very clueless direction.

There's some scattered social commentary here but it's bogged-down by an implausible plot that's only driven by shock-value and some laughable surface tension.

It's also terribly edited, with scenes dragging-on for too long and plot-points passing-by awkwardly with no real build-up or resolution in between. There's very little sense to any of the character's decisions and it all seems too contrived.

It's the acting though which really turn-off the viewer. Sri Lankan over-acting is rampant here when one of the essential performances put on spotlight to invoke some guilty sympathy, instead ends-up being a hysterically comical riot. This is more or less true of every actor in the flick.

A promising tale told terribly and utterly without tact or class. It could have been much worse, but some disappointment is guaranteed to whoever sees it. Pity.

Its a direct copy of corpse of anna fritz. Although it's no where near the original it isn't exactly too bad either. Understandably there are limitations on what they can shoot here in sri lanka. So it's not as hardcore as the original. But i guess they tried okay
