Verdict
The opening sequences of the film are well written and direct and immediately captivate us. The film invests time in making us worry about the main people and the problems they face. After Naveen Chandra is introduced as an undercover detective, the film’s plot and narrative keep you captivated. There are times when the scenes seem mundane and predictable and the PGP story provides a clear indication of what might have happened and what might happen next during the investigation.
Naveen Chandra gave an excellent performance as a detective. Former actress Madhoo Shah (aka Madhubala) is a complete and utter failure as a DGP. The interpretation of her is always exaggerated and unrealistic. Achyuth Kumar, who plays the writer, is credible in the role, and the rest of the cast did what he had to do to move the story forward.
The technical aspects of the film seem solid. The score composed and performed by Ghibran is essential to set the appropriate tone for each scene. Most of the film is made up of static shots, and while none of them are particularly noteworthy, they can’t be ignored because the lighting specifies the mood essential to the suspense. In general, the production values are satisfactory.
Director Aravindh Srinivasan did a fantastic job of capturing audience interest in the opening moments. However, there were a couple of scenes in the second act of the film that he had trouble with.
Repetition is an exciting and fun movie in every way. The interesting idea will have your interest until the end.
Rating: 3.5 / 5
