Also Known As: Criminal Justice
1. Aditya (Vikrant Massey) is good at football and bad at saying no to people.
2. He helps his father and brother-in-law run a taxi service in Mumbai. A night on the road as a driver turns first into a trip to the unknown and then a direct descent to hell.
3. Aditya wakes up to find his partner in a one-night stand murdered. Did he do it? Either way, will he be convicted?
4. This web series revolves around two stories-
•Aditya is bewildered by the criminal justice system and in the throes of an intensely painful, violent and transformative journey in prison.
•Lawyer Madhav (Pankaj Tripathi) is caught up in exploiting loopholes in the legal system for his own benefit, while long-suppressed guilt is eating him up inside.
5.Criminal Justice suffers from a lack of this exact newness in treatment and storytelling.
6.The premise that the journeys of two men (Aditya and Madhav) running on parallel tracks, but in a way that one’s second chance at life could also be the other’s, is clear only after the first three episodes.
7.Jackie Shroff as the ageing prison gang lord has a patchy arc – he is too caught up in tricks in the beginning and more coherent and fleshed out towards the end.
8.Criminal Justice works because of the story and its two central characters. The viewer is invested enough in knowing what happens to them at the end. But it is also far too long, and a little too safe and familiar in the way the subject has been treated and Indianised.
So, from me it's- 9/10= A MUST WATCH SUGGESTION FROM MY END.
