Pathaam Valavu

A decent thriller flick with a not so complicated story . We have seen the story before but the making is good. Soundtrack of the movie is well executed and makes the movie better. Good performances from the leads also makes the movie a one time watch worthy.

People who have rated this movie as bore is expecting miracle from the movie maybe. However this movie has an excellent performance along with some excellent soundtrack. Certain things are predictable however the movie has its own unexpected twist and turn.

Nobody has actually overacted or underperformed in this movie. The show stealer is of course suraj but indrajit has also delivered powerful acting. Aditi ravi has portrayed her role very nice. Those having daughters would be more cautious after watching this movie. Only 1 thing ... mostly during church festivals the church is not usually this empty as shown in the movie so tha major incident which happened inside the church is little out of place.

M Padmakumar back in his favourite space. With phenomenal actors like Suraj and indrajith the intensity of drama is another level. Suraj and indrajith portraying the conflicts of their respective characters reminded Joju and Dileesh Pothan from Joseph. Joseph was more of thriller while this is pure family drama.

Patham Valav revolves around Suraj Venjaramoodu's character Solomon,who is a convict out on parole. After he doesn't return even after his parole term has ended, a police team is sent to bring him back. The cops are led by sub inspector M Sethunath (Indrajith Sukumaran), who has to reach the hospital for his wife's delivery but is given this last-minute assignment. Rest of the characters handled by Aditi Ravi, Swasika, Sudheer Karmana, Major Ravi, Nisthar Ahmed and Ajmal Ameer.

Saw it few days ago on OTT. Iam not gonna get into the details of the movie even though there isn't much to spoil

Movie deals with current socio-political issues and how justice is not always served to a common man. Despite dealing with such hot topic, the movie is really bland without any flavors. Its predictable and uninspiring even with the twist.

It started good and I was waiting for it to pick-up the plot and move on. But it didn't happen. It was on the same 'bland' path till the end and I was bored when the twist hit. There was lots of emotion going on in many scenes but none felt convincing enough for the twist and it felt too forced.

We are recently experiencing an explosion of these uninspiring murder mystery/ investigation movies. This is just one of them.
