Such a waste of time. With such an excellent casting there could have been a good story telling. Alas!!! You don't find any. Though the movie starts on a promising note of Vidya Balan as an upright forest officer tracking the man eating tiger with her staff to trap it in the jungle, that's all she has to do the whole movie 'tracking' that too without any success. In the middle of the tracking, the murky politics are shown even politicising the tiger issue, the lecture on forest animal-human balance, the inefficient bureaucracy etc. are shown (Reminds us the Directors eye on Oscar Nomination just like his earlier movie 'Newton') The protagonist of the movie is shown as an helpless woman caught in the web of male chauvinism, redtape and murky politics. She is shown at the end of the movie as accepting things as they are and move on. She doesn't even report the illegal killing of the tiger by a private hunter. Then one might think what the movie is all about? The answer is simple. The same old formula. If you want a booker for your writing or an Oscar nomination for your movie show your country and its systems in poor light. You may have every chance of getting it or at least you have tried for it. You might find the jungle and the greenery interesting. But why watch the movie for it just switch on to Discovery or National Geography.

V is a good one time watch. Watch it for the lead role performances. Especially Nani. He improves film by film. If you leave logic to winds you can enjoy it. Why do people commit such big blunders I always wonder. It has become an order of the day in all movies. Killing bunch of bad guys is not a bad thing, but killing around 30 security personnel mercilessly that too foriegners who must be working on contract to protect a bad guy is totally pointless(Climax). Why have we become so insensitive in taking human life. God!!! I miss the good old movies where there is a fight for 10 to 15 mins. Hero thrashes villain police arrive and take the villain and his gang away who are not even bleeding 😄

This one is a brilliant investigative crime thriller. Gripping from the word go. Explores human frailties and exposes them in a brilliant manner. Sharat Kumar just nailed his part with a good support from Ashok Selvan. Well written, scripted and directed film. Its a no nonsense crime thriller and shows how a crime thriller should be made. Ofcourse this one too has a couple of loose ends, one the lady (heroine if u can say so) a foreign educated supportive technical analyst of the crime investigation is just an eyecandy to our hero without much of a contribution to the investigation from her side. Two in a tussle between the local police and this CID team the local police arrest a person for serial killings and let's the audience know that he admitted to the killings. Who is he and why did he admit to the crime he has not committed is not known. However, these lose ends do not affect the flow of the movie as such and can be ignored. Go watch it even if u are not a fan of crime thriller genre just to celebrate good movie making. Kudos to the team 👏👏👏
