CBI 5 is made just for namesake it appears. Although the fourth film wasn't upto the mark, it did keep the viewers engaged till the very end.
This fifth film fails completely in the script, making and pathetic casting. Although the visuals are of current gen quality, certain camera angle made it nauseating.
Rapid cuts at certain parts made it difficult to understand and prolonged shots of walking, climbing on cars and driving with no dialogues or any events happening is a prime example of pathetic editing and screenplay.
Mammooty, although aged quite a bit, is the only saving grace of the film- portraying the legendary Sethurama Iyer- the calm composed Indian Sherlock Holmes- although here he ends up in more mistakes than revelations.
S N Swamy had hyped it claiming to be a film with a climax never seen before,while keeping it the same as his script of The Truth 1999. A high ranking police official is the culprit.
Mukesh, Sai Kumar has aged a lot but stays in their characters well. Placement of Jagathy Sreekumar in the film was a pleasant surprise- the only thing makers managed to pull off successfully.
Film ends with a hint for a sequel. Kindly refrain from such a stupidity and don't ruin the Iyer's charisma.
