I had high expectations for this film and safe to say this movie really did meet my standards. The plot was original and not cliche at all. The fight scenes were great and did not look fake at all. The movie was so interesting people were on the edge of the seat waiting to see what was going to happen next. Mammotty and his team acted so naturally and we could see all the betrayal, friendships and reconciliation throughout the film. The viewers were misguided so many times throughout the films, there were plot twists were you least expected them. I would have given the film 10 stars but I feel like there were some parts that were left incomplete they weren't major parts most viewers probably don't even notice but we did. I also would have given it to 10 stars if they had given Sushin Shyam more opportunities to show off this music and bgm. Don't get me wrong I loved the music but I feel like sushin could have made even better music if he had more opportunities. There were like 2 songs in the movie and I felt like we needed more music and more bgm. I know sushin can do more music if there was time, but I also felt that since it was a thriller and there needed to be a lot of talking sushin wasn't able to fit in bgms in the middle like in kurup and bheeshmaparvam. The beginning scene where the music came in was amazing it gave everyone goosebumps and everyone was praising sushin for it. Sushin did a great job with the music in conclusion. Overall this movie was amazing the whole team was amazing and I would recommend it to every mammokka fan I know. I really hope to see movies like this in the future, can't wait!!

I will leave the technical side for the professionals and talk about my personal view on the movie. The satisfaction we were left with after watching this movie was nothing short of pure bliss. Honestly I just love it when a movie comes out with minimal promotion or hype, and performs well solely based on how good it is.

It's rare nowadays to be able to sit through a movie and finish it without discontent about one thing or another, but this movie did just that and so much more. Every single second of it was executed exceptionally. The direction and cinematography was so good, everyone that was cast did their job perfectly, especially Azeez and Rony, and not to mention The tech guy and the North Indian constable, and I don't have to say anything much about Mammootty right? He did what he always does, he took on the role with class, dissected it, fleshed it out, and made it his own.

Coming to the OST, Sushin Shyam was mixing fire throughout the movie until the very end, the guy never misses. Absolutely loved the movie and worth every single penny. A must watch in the theatres.

One of the best movies of Mammootty in recent times. An investigation thriller. I went with zero expectations and i liked the movie very much. Mammooty is a ASI rank Police Officer and he and 3 other including Azeez, Shabareesh and one more include the Kannur Squad and they are investigating a murder case. In this movie, Mammootty is not mass "Athavanameda Police " (Mammootty's earlier movie dialogue) Line but realistic normal Police Officer heading the Kannur Squad. But second half had good mass elements. Sunny Wayne, Vijayaraghavan, Kishore, Manoj KU, one Tech helper (Dont know name) and all other did their job well. 4.5 out of 5 for this film.

Honestly, can't say anything much wrong about it. Seemed like the story was perfectly crafted, and it gave the director the freedom to execute it properly. The brothers did a good job, and a good insightful interview about their process and timeline to develop and streamline it is required. They haven't overdone anything, that was a good thing. The film even provides a small relief through Mumbaivala Shiju character from the hectic investigation process. There are some Cameo appearances as such. There are 2-3 short scenes in the film that are not suitable to watch for children, but it was necessary and is aesthetically minimal as well compared to similar films. I believe this minimalism in portraying these elements is a very good thing, and hope this ethics in filmmaking won't be replaced. A small ticker that says a film element such as that is to be shown on the the side of the screen with a timer would help as well. To just to say a negative, I am not sure why George had to find words in English, and that too strainingly when he was asking an UP Officer to translate it in Hindi. That was not needed at all, and the film showed earlier he can handle Hindi, cause in a public function he was supposed to sing a Hindi song. Many liked RDX for it's fight sequences, for me some of those were a bit cringey. This film offers some fight sequence as well, and if you like an investigation thriller movie, this is a good one and might be the season best.
