‘Sebastian P.C. 524’ movie review: No emotional connect – The Hindu

We now have seen umpteen movies on how the bodily or mentally challenged lead character surmounts the issue and emerges profitable. Whereas the benefit of portraying such roles lies in having the audiences’ sympathy, in a industrial format, the problem is in making them determine with the character and entertainingly displaying heroism. The hero being man doesn’t thrill anymore. In Sebastian, the lead suffers from night time blindness which turns into a battle level.

What piques curiosity is that constable Sebastian — performed by Kiran Abbavaram, a rising expertise — is on night time obligation. He and his mom Mary (Rohini) disguise his drawback from the world. As Sebastian’s father’s final want was to see his son as a constable, Sebastian can not afford to lose his job. Pleading along with his seniors to be assigned morning shifts in useless, he’s transferred continually. Then the story will get related to a homicide the place 4 characters are concerned.

The movie opens with a lady, Neelima (Komalee), telling her lover that she is getting married. Unable to digest being ditched, the younger man plans to kill her. In the meantime, when Neelima’s husband (Adarsh) is out of city, her father-in-law (Surya) tries to seduce her. Additionally, a younger lady Heli (Nuveksha) desires to kill Neelima as a result of she desires to reunite together with her boyfriend who’s now Neelima’s husband. Neelima is lastly useless however who killed her?

Sebastian is on the job and Mary pushes him to do the unthinkable. What’s the cause behind the girl’s loss of life and the way does Sebastian come out of a job battle, to be true to his obligation or save his one-time saviour is the story. 

The director fails to make use of the situation of night time blindness to his benefit; he neither elicits laughs nor creates melodrama. Had the screenplay been racy, the movie would have at the least been mediocre. Some scenes the place thieves break-in at night time and Sebastian is on obligation seem cliched. He’s proven utilizing the sound to the utmost and beating them to a pulp however that’s the place his heroism ends. The finale turns philosophical with the useless mom feeling completely happy that the son who hid his situation from the world has executed justice to his job by discovering out who the killer is. Barring one or two actors, performances are pathetic.

The fantastic thing about Madanpalle the place the story begins is just not exploited in any scene. The sluggish tempo of the movie is a serious disadvantage. This crime comedy has neither comedy nor crime narration and investigation; we find yourself getting confused. Kiran Ababvaram’s newest idea is nice however a lot of the scenes lack logic, the path is amateurish and check our endurance.
