What works wonders for the film is the way a simple thriller story is presented.

The intermission point is quite arresting and so are the scenes thereafter, when Vikram solves the mystery of the mysterious note. On the flipside, the suspense is unpredictable but not entirely convincing.

Overall, HIT: The First Case narrates a gritty story of a homicide mystery which will surely keep you hooked till the end. Even though some of the glitches of the film are inevitable, Hit does make it for a must-watch film.

The issue with HIT is the fact that the second half gets extremely predictable and goes from a whodunnit to a weak thriller.

Somewhere in this disjointed narrative lies an intriguing mystery, but it gets lost in the lacklustre telling, and the superficial characterisation.

On the whole, HIT The First Case has such a weak suspense revelation that the climax mars the impact of the entire preceding drama. As such, it will not be able to salvage its position at the ticket windows.

How is the fan score worked out?

It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give one star's films 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
