Pariah Volume 1: Every Street Dog Has a Name

The intention and the action displayed are appreciable, however, the execution fell short, leaving me quite shocked to be honest, as the overwhelmingly positive reception led me to bear much higher expectations.

The script is devoid of depth, especially in terms of character buildups and the emotions they carry. It's a technical misfire as well.

The editing is subpar, with noticeable 'frame' repetitions. The visual effects are not up to par, as evident in the looped footage of caged dogs in the climax. The background score, while suitable for the setting, ultimately became monotonous, deprived of variations!

Thankfully the performances hit the notes well, especially that of Soumya's. He had the most amounts of dialogue to throw and he did not disappoint in his deliveries! Vikram was competent in doing action but needed to better in dramatic portions.
