Inspector Zende Netflix: Has the magic of Family Man worked again? Will Manoj Bajpayee’s Inspector Zende make you laugh or cringe?

News India Live, Digital Desk: If it’s a winter evening and you get to sit under a quilt and watch a good movie, then what else do you need? If you too are looking for something new and interesting on Netflix, then Manoj Bajpayee is once again at your service. This time he is neither fighting gang war nor spying, rather he has come as ‘Inspector Zende’. This film is a crime-comedy. I watched the film and thought of sharing a very desi and honest review with you, so that you can decide whether to invest your time in it or not. How much power is there in the story? The story revolves around a murder mystery, but the treatment is very different. Normally a murder mystery is serious, but here the manner of the policeman (Zende) is so strange and funny that you start laughing instead of getting scared. Inspector Zende is a policeman who is smart in his work, but his way of talking and working is completely different. There are many twists and turns in the film which keep you engaged. What to say about the acting! When Manoj Bajpayee is on the screen, there is no need to worry about acting. He has breathed life into the character of Zende. His sarcasm, facial expressions and dialogue delivery are so natural that it does not seem like he is acting. In many scenes he makes us laugh without saying anything. Apart from him, the supporting cast has also done a good job. The small jokes and punchlines do not let the film become cumbersome. What is missing? The truth is that if you are expecting an intense story like ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’ or ‘Family Man’, then you may be a little disappointed. This film is ‘light hearted’. At some places the story seems a bit stretched, which could have been edited. The climax could have been a little better, but the comedy covers up that shortcoming. Watch it or not? (Final Verdict) In my opinion, ‘Inspector Zende’ is a “must watch” film, especially if you don’t want heavy action or crying. This is a ‘feel good’ crime movie. This is no less than a treat for Manoj Bajpayee’s fans.
