What I'm about to say may sound harsh, and it may be considered an unpopular stance, but Raihan Rafi's approach here appears to be impractical for the project!

Stories like these demand a sense of subtlety and discretion; but, removing those elements and making major changes to the customary equation causes the essence to evaporate, the message to be missed or, worse, misinterpreted!

In all honesty, that's exactly what happened in this case!

It's dramatic (or should I say overdramatised) just to be dramatic. Although there is plenty of blood and gore to satisfy its fanbase, the story falls short of what was promised or intended.

As a fan of the genre, I was really excited about the film. Also, the expectation rose when I found out it was the first R-rated film by Raihan Rafi. But sadly, it wasn't the movie I expected from the director of so many amazing movies.

The storytelling felt engaging to me. However, the acting at the most important times was unrealistic and laughable. Some part of the murder scene didn't even feel real. I mean, I could literally see the weapons slowing down when it were about to reach the victims. Such details were left alone.

Sound effects? I have to admit those were the most irritating part of watching the films. I mean, when does cutting people sound like dead leaves! That's not just weird; that's unacceptable from Raihan Rafi. How could the direction let such stupid sound effects be included in the film?

And I have to admit, if you can't do the s*x scenes, why don't you ignore them? But when they were included, that scene was really weird. The male actor was literally shaking the table with his hands, and you want the viewers to accept that as a relevant scene?

Well, in the end, I am disappointed with the film. If such minor details were handled with care, this film could've been much better.
