A third user gave a 3.5 rating out of 5 and while reviewing the movie wrote, “HIT 3 Review: #Nani steals the show as Arjun Sarkaar in this electrifying thriller! High-octane action, gripping twists, and a stellar second half make it a must-watch. Mickey J. Meyer’s score & slick visuals amp up the intensity. Nani fans, this one’s a treat! 3.5/5 #HIT3 #Nani.”
“#Hit3 - MISS Hit! Bloody Violent Nani is Terrific. Powerless Villain. Gud Cinematography & Pre Climax Stunt Choreo. Logicless & Predictable Narration. CTK Portions r cringe. Though multiple murders & investigations going on, its neither Tense nor Exciting. UNDERWHELMING!,” another user wrote.
Although it seems like the movie might not satisfy all expectations because of its predictable plot and heavy violence. However, it is a treat to all the Nani fans as the film had strong performances to make it an entertaining watch for fans of the genre as well.
