Barroz: Guardian of Treasures

Everyday I wake up and I thank the Lord for my choice of watching the film at home instead of the theatres. I would have regretted wasting my time and money. Now I only regret wasting my time. The VFX was done on Microsoft PowerPoint and their team has a combined brain cells count of 3. On second thoughts, I'd like to try the drugs that the entire team who conceived this idea was on. Mohanlal could do better. Its a shameful movie for the actor to be cast into. The horrible VFX, the mediocre acting by the cast members and the earrape of a song "Isabella" rounds up the entire experience. The only good thing I could've mentioned about the movie is the ads that would've played before the movie if I had watched it in the theatres.

0/10 wouldn't even recommend it to my enemy.

Did I mention the horrible VFX ?

I genuinely regret wasting my time on Barroz. For a movie that touts itself as a groundbreaking 3D experience, it offers little more than shallow storytelling, laughable visuals, and an overall sense of creative emptiness. If the goal was to bore and frustrate the audience, mission accomplished.

The plot (if you can call it that) is a convoluted mess, lacking coherence, emotional depth, or any semblance of character development. It felt like a half-hearted fairy tale stitched together with clichés and incoherent fantasy elements. Not a single character stands out-they're either forgettable or downright annoying.

The much-hyped 3D effects were underwhelming. Instead of immersing you in the world of Barroz, the visuals were clunky, poorly rendered, and felt like they belonged in the early 2000s. At no point did the film capitalize on its 3D potential; the scenes were flat, unimaginative, and lacked the visual flair that could justify the format.

The pacing was atrocious. Entire segments dragged on endlessly, leaving the audience squirming in their seats, desperate for the ordeal to end. The editing felt amateurish, with abrupt cuts and awkward transitions that only added to the film's chaotic presentation.

As for the music and sound design? Uninspired, generic, and utterly forgettable. Instead of enhancing the experience, it served as background noise to a train wreck of a narrative.

Overall, Barroz is an embarrassing attempt at 3D storytelling that fails on every level. Save yourself the agony and skip this disaster entirely. It's not worth your money, your time, or even the effort it takes to think about it afterward.

Barroz. Mohanlal 's First Directorial Movie .The Movie's 3D , VFX Was Great And Mohanlal's Performance Was Great Too But It lacks in story and script and other actors performance except lal's performance was not great. So Barroz Was A Missed Opportunity And Could Have Been Done Much Greatly. Some Even The Acting Of Lal Was Not Great Too. Sometimes it felt like a serial therefore. Mohanlal's Look As Barroz was great too. The Voodoo Doll was great too it's vfx was great too. So Barroz was great visual festival and it's cgi and vfx was great but it lacks story , script and performance except lal.

The worst movie ever.... Thought that it was going to give a minimum standard... The underwater scene was so substandard A high school student can give better results.. I don't even understand where was the effects The acting of all were very pathetic... waste of time and money A substandard serial is much better than this The best movie for a good sleep Mohanlal please don't direct anymore movie Even my 11 year old was asking why is he giving keys in slow motion I just wanted ro get up and run away in between

Music was more than pathetic I wish there was at least one thing good in the movie.

Film has decent VFX and good 3D animation. But lacks in storyline and action sequences. Movie is a yawn fest even for kids. Really laboured keeping my eyes open at the theatres. On OTT, you wouldn't get past 20 minutes of this movie. With all due respect to Lalettan his directorial debut falls flat. The movie is too long at over 2.5 hours with a storyline thats short enough to make a 20 minute animated toon episode. Even on a sunday the movie hall was running at less than 20% occupancy. My dear Kuttichaathan re release would have been far more entertaining than this. Movie is really seriously low on content.
