D/O Parvathamma (2019) User Reviews

An overstretched but watchable crime thriller.

[ConfusedRoulette · 6/10 · 27 May 2019]

The film opens with a police team gathering at the crime scene of a female medical student who is found dead. Initial investigation classifies it as suicide but with pressure from the girl's parents and the media suspecting it to be a murder, the case is taken up by CID officer Vaidehi ('Sandalwood Beauty Queen' Haripriya). How she solves the case is what the film is all about.

The first 30 mins of the film shows Vaidehi's earlier college life and how she used to be a tomboy in college. The rest of the movie is all about finding the murderer.The film doesn't have much story in it and the plot is overstretched. Usually a thriller film should be engaging for the viewer but this movie isn't very gripping and also starts to get boring after the interval. The climax is rather predictable and ends quite abruptly.

Haripriya, Sumalatha Ambareesh and the rest of the actors have performed well. Barring the negatives, the film has a quite enchanting screenplay along with some fine background music and good cinematography.

The director should have worked more on the script which doesn't have much to offer.

All in all this film is watchable and won't disappoint you for a one time watch.

Story is Too Predictable

[koffeewithkiran · 4/10 · 6 July 2019]

Don't get cajoled by IMDB rating, the plot is too predictable. Even a kindergarten kid could infer the conclusion. The investigation and love of the protagonist overlaps very often and some how I felt this movie is Half-cooked. Could have turned it into a masterpiece just by skipping the love and marriage cliche in the plot.

Not a movie, dramas are better than this.

[sudhi-kr90 · 1/10 · 6 July 2019]

Leading lady of this movie gets everything easily. She looks at a boy helping poor people that's it love happens, it's full of cliche. Even investigation, too easily she will get clues, too easily people talk, even school going kids can solve this murder and there was no need for a special investigation team. Except Sumalatha and Haripriya no one is in the role and zero acting, no strong supporting characters. Tests your patience.

Stupid Movie

[siva-298 · 2/10 · 7 July 2019]

Those unnecessary elevations for heroin and convoluted love stories made this movie even more horrible. Good example how not to make a crime thriller.

No common sense used in the movie

[amith-69365 · 3/10 · 6 July 2019]

Very badly made film. Seeing the rating I watched but very disappointed. No proper flow nothing. Final twist is so fast lol. Not worth watching it.

Pathetic Movie

[sridhar-d21 · 1/10 · 8 July 2019]

After watching this movie, I have learnt a lesson, that one shouldn't go by the rating provided here... Pathetic Movie....!!! Some of the lousy Television serials are far better than this movie.

Movie or local theatre?? Pathetic

[kaustubh-21169 · 1/10 · 10 July 2019]

Director doesn't actually know how he will present the story. By the way, the story is also very predictable. You always know what is going on. And just for the sake of extending the runtime director added heroines past story. A Doordarshan tele-series is much better than this. Please don't make such kind of movies. It's a disgrace to the cinema.

Avoid this like the plague

[chetan_l · 3/10 · 15 July 2019]

I have time and again watched movies purely based on IMDB ratings without even reading the blurb or any review. This has resulted in me uncovering several hidden gems of cinematic excellence. And then comes experiences like what you get when you watch this movie based on suspiciously bloated IMDB ratings. I strongly suspect that this movie rating has been manipulated by the makers and everyone associated with it. Oh, this is a review of the movie and not about IMDb ratings; sorry. Here you go: crappy story, lousy screenplay, pathetic direction, decent acting and background music, and chaos, presented as an amateur whodunit mixed with perverted romance and inept attempt at comedy. There - my attempt at the movie synopsis is as bad as the movie itself! Or, is it not?

Dimwitted crime borer

[sriharikraman · 2/10 · 9 July 2019]

I'm 100% sure the entire unit of this movie started voting for it for the rating to be this high. The movie itself is badly shot, badly edited, badly written and even worsely acted!

Unwanted plots, unnecessary scenes make up this 1 hr 47 mins movie. Technically this movie is not worth more than 30 mins.

The movie is clichéd, trying too hard to make the lead actress seem larger than life. The story is weak and the plot has holes which could fit whole countries!

Svae yourselves the time and just close your eyes and dream up something. I'm sure that'd be a much better experience than watching this movie!

Average movie

[dr-prasannashetty · 2/10 · 6 July 2019]

I was deceived by the IMDB rating of 9.2. It's a very average movie with full of cliche and a lot of loop holes . Romantic angle was added to bring some laughs but fails badly because of poor acting. Ending was illogical. Overall it's disappointing.

Do not watch movies seeing imdb rating

[webmaster887 · 1/10 · 9 July 2019]

I wonder how this movie is rated above 9. This is much of a drama. The tagline says investigation thriller but not. The storyline goes like this. 30 minutes drama - 5 minutes investigation - again 30 minutes drama - 5 minutes investigation.. The movie lacks a proper script. The script is not appealing at all.

Moves like a snail

[roobanyadav · 2/10 · 8 July 2019]

Very boring and slow movie. If you have no movies to watch then you can watch.

Dont bother wasting your time watching this crap

[shamanthg · 1/10 · 11 July 2019]

This is the worst possible thriller that anyone can direct in any language The lead actress has two love affairs in the movies which takes up almost entirety of the film. People have rated this 7.6, i dont know what they saw in this, but either they must be plain stupid or out of their minds For the entirety of the movie has been passed as a thriller only because there are very few scenes of investigation about the actual crime Lead actress chosen for this movie doesnt suit for the character of a police officer Totally this movie is completely chaotic and utter waste of time

An overstretched boring Crime patrol story

[opotraining · 1/10 · 17 July 2019]

This is just a 30 mins crime patrol story which is streched by adding heroines marriage story, slow walks of heroine overtime and unrelated songs. There is no thrill nor crime. Its total bore. Nobody knows how to act . Heroines side kick is another irritating character. Worst direction . Don't know how the ratings are high. Do not waste your time by watching this crap

Khan Review

[zkzuber · 1/10 · 20 August 2022]

Watched it for ten minutes forwarded watched five minutes and here is my review as social service to help people not waste your time. Horrible, boring, to much over acting, horrible direction, horrible acting don't waste your time.

Slow-paced thriller which tests your patience

[anandkam-45019 · 1/10 · 17 September 2019]

Crime thrillers ought to be fast-paced and should have a taut screenplay. This movie is slow-paced and a weak screenplay. Although the movie is just 100 minutes long, one feels like watching a 3 hour movie. Very boring.

Waste movie.

[sureshyalagudri · 1/10 · 19 August 2020]

Do not waste your priciest time watching this useless movie.Waste of time. Does not look like a movie at all.
