Absolutely Deep Detective Story

Rating: 9/10 (28 January 2018)

I'm not going to judge the movie in contrast with the book (which I haven't been able to read yet) or any other crime/detective story, but as a movie on its own. The film has a nice vintage feel to it. In the start of the movie you would thought it's just a simple story where there will be a murder and the detective at the end will solve the crime, but it's not just about that. It imprints a question about morality, of justice, of conscience. It would make you think deeply after the climax of the story unravels to you. You may get shocked or say "Aha! I'm right about it". But it does leave you to question, was justice really served? What would be your own ending to the story?
The cinematography is great, there isn't a hint of any anomaly to the plot of the story. Though others may see the film's adaptation not great in comparison to its novel, this would still be a great movie to watch.
