The poster of the film on  Netflix showcases Vikrant Massey alone - but if you choose to watch the movie (you can, if you like the genre), you will know why i chose this particular image.

Adapted from  the Nithari murders - This is a  generic serial killer story  elevated by two absolutely thrilling sequences, one terrific performance by Deepak Dobriyal  (deserving lead role) and one inconsistent but eventually redeemable performance by Vikrant Massey .

  • A Ramlila sequence that becomes a chase bookended by a stunning imagery, which ignites Deepak Dobriyal's character into the investigation. 
  • The taut and tense interrogation sequence - Vikrant Massey really comes into his own - he talks and talks, while you see shock and disbelief and a WTF look in Dobriyal's eyes , superb.
  • Frankly - this is the movie!.  

Until the interrogation sequence, Massey looks out of depth and very forced, clearly needing more seasoning as an actor. Clocking  just above 2 hours - this is a quick watch. Disappointingly though,  everything falls into place, everything is answered , everything resolves itself, its all there for you to see. 

Such a shame with the  immense material available, this could have been easily shot as a 4 episode limited series, which could have explored the characters, drawn this out a little more and definitely added more thrill!
