    Ordinary dialogues and repetition of same information

    Story is not so good and the dialogues are ordinary, so pathetic. And they have showed it has thriller but didn't made it feel as a thriller or I can say not portrayed as thriller . Acting is not so convincing does not come as natural.

    Most of the characters acting was not so good and dialogues delivery was not up to the mark.

    Story is good. But not the dialogue delivery even hero does not have good dialogue delivery his acting has to be improved, little over acted.

    And few of the contexts is repeated twice in some of the scenes which already been said, it has happened frequently in the movie, same information should have not be repeated again unless it's required in this case it was not required.

    It shows that movie has been dragged a little.

    Can't See It even once (CSI) Sanathan

    Worst movie how does the IMDB rated this movie high.. Direction and dialogue to the peak of its worst. The Story was having some stuff but the way screenplay and dialogues go is utter nonsense. Too much concentration on the hype to the hero and aimed to show as the most intelligent but it actually failed many times.. even many superstars are now avoiding build ups.. but still people are aiming for buildups if they are hero.. why cant actors act like normal people why they are given with so much buildupz... and it is not upto the level. I would recommend not to watch this movie but few may like it.

    How Imdb has rated this 8.9 only God and Imdb knows.

    Does not even deserve a star. Even overacting will say let me leave this world peacefully, such a disgusting movie and the director was drunk, then he directed this movie.

    Actor had literally same expression and overacting all the time, as if he is the real Sherlock Homes, even dialogues also doesn't make any sense and was not clicking at all, if you really want to watch a crime movie then don't waste your time with this disaster.

    Even side actors acting was also so much horrible noone in this movie deserves any credit.

    My suggestion to everyone never believe in IMDb ratings blindly , otherwise you will waste your 2 hours of precious time.

    Frustrating Movie

    "CSI Sanatan" is a film that left me utterly bewildered and deeply disappointed. Despite its seemingly positive IMDB rating, I can't help but question the authenticity of the reviews, as this movie proves to be a prime example of false advertising. From the deplorable acting to the atrocious camera work, the distasteful music and dialogues, the lackluster story, and the direction that seems lost in translation, this film is an absolute catastrophe. I regret wasting my precious weekend time on this movie and feel compelled to share my frustrations by creating an IMDB account solely for this review.

    Let's start with the acting, or rather the lack thereof. The performances in "CSI Sanatan" are so pitiful that one can't help but wonder how such subpar talent made it onto the screen. The actors' expressions are wooden, their delivery devoid of any authenticity, and their emotional range non-existent. It's as if they were reading their lines straight from a teleprompter, with no understanding or connection to the characters they portray. This contributes to an overall sense of detachment and hampers any possibility of viewer engagement.

    The dialogue in "CSI Sanatan" is not only cringe-worthy but also poorly written. The exchanges between characters feel forced and artificial, lacking any semblance of natural conversation. The attempts at humor fall flat, evoking more pity than laughter. It's disappointing to witness such lazy writing, which fails to provide any depth or substance to the narrative.

    The technical aspects of "CSI Sanatan" are equally dismal. The camera work is amateurish, with awkward angles and shaky shots that only serve to distract from the story. It feels as though the cinematographer had no understanding of visual storytelling, resulting in a disjointed and visually unappealing experience. Moreover, the editing is choppy and inconsistent, further exacerbating the film's technical shortcomings.

    The music in "CSI Sanatan" is a forgettable mess. It adds nothing to the scenes and fails to create any emotional resonance. The soundtrack feels detached from the film's themes and lacks cohesion. It's a missed opportunity to enhance the viewing experience and adds to the overall disappointment of the film.

    As for the story and direction, they are an absolute trainwreck. "CSI Sanatan" presents a convoluted and poorly executed plot that fails to engage or captivate the audience. The pacing is all over the place, leaving viewers bewildered and uninterested in the outcome. The direction lacks focus, resulting in a film that feels disjointed and without a clear vision.

    In conclusion, "CSI Sanatan" is an abysmal cinematic experience that should be avoided at all costs. The combination of pathetic acting, terrible camera work, disgusting music and dialogues, and a story and direction that are completely unimpressive make for a disastrous film. Don't be deceived by false ratings or positive reviews; this movie is a colossal waste of time. Save yourself the frustration and steer clear of "CSI Sanatan."

    Pathetic

    One special request to the director and the makers, please don't even think of making a sequel.

    Direction and screenplay was so bad that can't even blame the bad acting. And the annoying bgm sucked the whole time. Story had a bit potential but the direction was so bad that no one is to be blamed. The editing sucked. Music sucked. No comments on acting ( only the actors knows if they have acted in this film or not).

    Overall, it's a worst nightmare to watch and waste your time. So my suggestion would stay safe and save your precious time. I don't even know how it got a higher rating on IMDb which influenced me to watch it.
