Forensic Movie Review: Today every big star on OTT is trying to make his presence felt. But Radhika Apte is one of those actresses, who has already run many amazing boats in this sea before this flood of OTT. Radhika, who was a part of many web series and OTT content including 'Phobia', 'Sacred Games', 'Raat Akeli', has now once again appeared in a film named 'Forensic Movie'. Radhika's pairing with Vikrant Massey, this film has been released on ZEE5 and is a suspense crime thriller. Know how this film is.
See, talking about the story, the first condition of any suspense thriller is that you do not already know the secrets and twists and turns of its story. So without any spoiler, just understand that Mussoorie is a city, where many small girls are being murdered on their birthdays, that too brutally. Sub Inspector Megha Sharma (Radhika Apte) is on the hunt for this killer and has been called by Dehradun to help him, Johnny Khanna (Vikrant Massey), a great expert in forensics… Yes, there is a past of both of them, which will let you know without delay. You will know in the film itself. But now what is this mystery, how does it take a turn, to see that, you have to watch this film.
'Forensic' remake of Malayalam film:
First of all, let me make it clear that 'Forensic' is a Hindi remake of the Malayalam language film of the same name. Malayalam Forensics proved to be a hit but there are some problems to see in this remake. First of all, if we talk about something good, many suspense thrillers have come out on OTT even before this, but the different thing about this film is that here everything is not happening between just a supercop or a psycho villain. Rather, things are being seen here from the point of view of forensic experts and you will enjoy seeing these nuances. Just a cop alone will not solve everything, but things have been shown in a logical way.
The first half of the film is very funny but the trouble starts in the second half, where things are just too quick to settle. Along with this, the climax can also remind you of the 2018 Tamil superhit film 'Ratsasan'. Even in both these films, there are school girls who are victims of crime.
Vikrant Massey is refreshing
The most refreshing in forensics is Vikrant Massey who is not just serious like any common forensic expert. Rather, do your work with all your heart. The trouble begins, when the last part of the story starts feeling expected of you. At the same time, a car-chasing sequence also felt quite strange, which gave this logical film a complete 'filmy masala' feel.
If you are sitting at home and you want to watch a suspense thriller, then you can definitely watch this film once to understand Vikrant Massey's funny style and forensic logic behind the crime. 2.5 stars to this film from my side.
