MURDER 3- My Review

If 2004 ‘Murder’ was an erotic thriller, and 2011 ‘ Murder 2’ was a psychological thriller, the latest ‘Murder 3’ is neither an erotic thriller or a sleek psychological thriller. Although,  this movie tries hard to be one, but fumbles in its way through the end. Loosely based on Columbian thriller “the hidden face’ { which is the USP of ‘Bhatt camp’ and we call it ‘Inspiration’ J  ) does  not really brings the eee!!! Factor

Randeep Hooda plays an ace photographer with a funny hair piece on his head ( he could have grown the hair for this ! why use a wig !), he performs less than half of his potential. Both the female leads Aditi Rao Hydari  and Sara Loren add up to the glamour quotient, kissing Hooda regularly ( is someone missing Hashmi !) The Movie starts with Hooda finding his missing Girlfriend and it does successfully engage the interest of the viewer till the interval. During the time the usual dose of awkward sound in Bathroom, thundering, lights suddenly going dark, window crashing, suspense revolving from one character to other, which are part of a horror-thriller kind of movies keeps you engaged.

The problem begins with the second half; as the Climax is unfolded with a little unconvincing twist. This could have been the master stroke of the film, but sadly Vishesh Bhatt struggles to justify the twist in the film. The loose strings of the film are - undefined character of Randeep Hooda, is he good, is he Bad or is he ugly?. Rajesh Shringarpure who plays a tough cop ( every thriller has to have a tough cop, but thankfully for the film, he does not solves the mystery !) His character is flooded with average dialogues like “jise tum nahi dikhana chahte ho wo dikh raha ha” “ Agar nisha ko kuch hua, to mai jaanch nahi karoonga seethe jaan loonga”  . One of the main reason of success of earlier ‘Murder’ Films were their music but this edition has a very weak soundtrack  except for ‘Teri Jhuki Nazar’ which is hummable. The film has an open end, may be a sequel is on the way….

All in all Murder 3 will serve you as an eye candy, little engaging but slightly unconvincing film. We expect  a lot more from Vishesh Films or the Bhatt Camp, who looks like struggling every time they make a movie without Hasmi…..Bring Him on Bhatt Sahab……
