A mind-blower!

In a time when mind-blowers, like 8+ rated movies, hover just above average, this film impressed me and blew my mind.

Not a single moment felt boring; it kept me engaged till the end.

Remember, you've watched a movie that provided a wonderful experience, kept you engaged and satisfied. It wasn't the best, but it's among the best. This is simply that type of movie.

I can't get over what they did with Shruti Haasan. I was totally shocked. That was unexpected. (Twist)

Almost every actor did great. It felt like whenever an actor didn't nail a shot, the director took more shots until it was just right.

The lead did an excellent job presenting emotions, especially the child actor.

The songs were okay, not bad or anything.

The songs was kinda avodeble.

Yes, I agree it's old wine in a new bottle.

But where can you find old wine this good?

As for the family disclaimer, it has some minor kissing scenes but is a fully family watch.

It's a solid 8.

This movie was by far my most anticipated movie. The art style, the feel-I knew that it would be a banger even before watching it. It fully satisfied me. To be frank, It should have gotten a 7.5. But as I had the highest expectations for this, which were met, and it didn't disappoint me, giving me a wonderful experience, I can give it an 8.

I wanted to watch it scenes the beginning of the year. And finally whatch it on the 31'st December 2023.

"Kumbalangi Nights" met my expectations with its captivating storytelling, enriched by Fahadh Faasil's stellar performance. However, the film's flaws, including unclear character relationships and questionable portrayals, detract from its overall impact. Fahadh Fazil's acting stands out in this otherwise mixed cinematic experience. The movie successfully creates a unique universe, skillfully written by Syam Pushkaran, beautifully captured by Madhu C Narayanan, and complemented by Shyju Khalid's cinematography and Sushin Shyam's musical score. Despite some shortcomings, it remains a noteworthy addition to Malayalam cinema.
