"Jamalinte Punjiri" is a very satisfying theatre watch. The movie begins at a slow pace, but builds momentum as it progresses, culminating in a jaw-dropping twist at the end of the first half. A very engaging second half, that will give you no clue as to where the movie is headed to, ends in another unexpected climax. I personally love to watch suspense thrillers and court room dramas. And I get to experience it all, in this must watch movie. Well crafted script, top-notch performances by all the lead actors - especially Indrans and Siddique, and commendable direction makes this movie a wonderful weekend watch. Cinematography is also noteworthy and apt for the mood of the film. Indrans gives an earnest performance as the good-hearted Jamal, and all the different shades of the character are safe in the hands of this seasoned actor. This is easily one of the best performances by him. The new comers show promise, especially Sunil Bhaskar who plays the villain role. He gives a very restrained, natural performance as a spoilt brat and never goes over the top.

Overall, a very sincere attempt at story telling by the crew which should be applauded! Movie goers should come out and watch this movie in large numbers, to help it get the reach that it truly deserves!
