Nani starrer 'HIT: The Third Case' is now being screened in theatres and fans and reviewers have been flocking to the cinema halls to enjoy the action thriller with the actor seen in a gritty, intense role as Arjun Sarkaar, a tough and ruthless HIT officer.
Early reactions from fans on social media have been largely positive, praising the film’s screenplay and Nani’s compelling performance. Many viewers appreciated the film's balance of intense action with emotional moments, especially the romantic sequences between Nani and Srinidhi Shetty, who plays the female lead.
A fan wrote, "#HIT3 #HIT3FirstHalfReview brilliant screenplay and very entertaining first half. Romantic portions of @NameisNani and Srinidhi is so good. Remember this isn’t a typical mass masala movie, but a crime thriller. Having said that, still fast paced screenplay, make a Must Watch"

Did you find the film's plot predictable?

However, some reviewers pointed out that the film’s storyline can be predictable and occasionally lacks logic, with the villain’s character feeling powerless against Nani's dominant presence. The movie’s heavy violence and gore have earned it an ‘A’ certificate, and Nani himself advised viewers with weak hearts or children to avoid it. Despite these criticisms, the cinematography, stunt choreography, and Nani’s intense screen presence were widely praised, with certain scenes deemed best experienced on the big screen.
One reviewer wrote, "#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!"

The first half of the film has been described as decent and engaging, setting up the investigation and characters, while the second half ramps up the tension with high-octane action and twists. The background score by Mickey J. Meyer and slick visuals enhance the film’s dark and intense atmosphere, though some felt the music could have been stronger.

While it may not satisfy all expectations due to its predictable plot and heavy violence, for Nani fans, the film had strong performances to make it an entertaining watch for fans of the genre as well.
