Sila Samayangalil

Basically an awareness movie with a fresh concept and realistic making through a suspense filled screenplay which doesn't preach the message it wants to but still emphasises without shoving it down the throat.

The movie starts out and establishes its tone straight away, introduces the characters in a simple manner.

It takes significant amount of time to get into the core, which may annoy some, but the slow pace doesn't necessarily make it uninteresting.

It uses the effect of a person's actions during frantic desperation to weave its suspense into place and continues to take the same anxiety into the extreme.

It does lack logic towards the end but from a writers point of view, it is used a crutch for the suspense.

The background score felt out of place in most of the places. It didn't do anything to capture the desparation.

Acting was on point, precariously perched, between realism and hyper expressive.

It casually inserts rhetorics about social issues in the dialogues which blends with the tone of the movie.

A movie primarily made with the goal to create social awareness about a critical issue, works decently enough as a movie too.
