Fantastic 😍 thriller. Must watch. Don't miss it.

Background Previous Quote Good Movie Quotes Background Next Quote I have a very simple definition of a good movie: a good movie makes you forget you're watching a movie.

Inside Out' - that was a really good movie. That's the first animated movie I saw since.

At the end of the day it's got to be a good movie, it's got to be a funny movie, and it's got to make people think, 'Hey, I couldn't have spent my time any better.' As far as entertainment, 'The Right Stuff' is a good movie. As far as a documentary of the early space days, which they purported it to be, it is not at all.

Directed By Arun Varna, Background score by Jakes Bejoy....

The movie starts with clear Thriller plot -Rape Case, and the challenges faced by the police officers and stuff. It pretty much shows who is the protagonist in the beginning itself. The movie cleary shows that you are getting into Crime thriller Piece and so be ready to get shocked......

A good watch, I didn't feel much Lag while watching the movie.

Coming to different departments of the movie -

Acting - Biju menon and Suresh Gopi with their Stunning acting and expression carried the movie..

Music - Background music by jakes bejoy loved it It felt like the backbone of the movie

(Still playing in my mind)

Director- Not much unique but well enough. There was some good transition that impressed me...

The tone and spice of the movie kept me stick to screeen

Overall a Good watch......

Thankyou.

Garudan" is a gripping crime investigative thriller that keeps you engaged throughout. The movie is filled with unexpected twists at the beginning and end, making it a truly exhilarating watch. The performances, especially by Suresh Gopi and Biju Menon, are top-notch, adding depth to the intriguing storyline. Through out the movies i was on the edge of their seat. It had some trilling plot make it a must-watch for people who love crime dramas. It's truly amazing to see how far Malayalam cinema has come, and "Garudan" is a shining example of the industry's excellence. Can give solid 8/10 for the movie and the ending.

I enjoyed every bit of this crime thriller. What a movie! I remember people saying it's a sleeping pill but this movie was very much engaging for me. Classy story from Midhun Manuel Thomas and a superb direction from Arun Varma. There have been similar attempts in Hollywood, but that didn't dissuade me from proceeding with this one.

The movie is kind of slow-paced, but the story is incredibly smooth, and it won't allow you to fast-forward even for a second. All the supporting actors were amazing in their respective roles. I would have given it 9 stars, but some dialogues were too much for Suresh Gopi, and it would have been great if the creators had avoided that.

Biju Menon needs a separate paragraph. He has come a long way. What an actor! I would like to attach this movie to Biju Menon rather than the lead SG. It's a Biju Menon 'show' throughout.

Do give it a watch.

Garudan just about flies, failing to soar. The first half of the movie is quite good raising our hope but then the second half lets us down by poor writing. Weak storyline; they could have done a lot better if they had used more imagination, or put in more effort.

As far as acting is concerned, the main players are Sidhique and Biju who have done a good job while Suresh Gopi's was average.

The direction and screen play (with too many unnecessary scenes) are again average.

My main complaint is that the makers have tried to present a mystery but without following the ground rules of writing/making mystery stories/movies. A good mystery story teller has to follow the basic rule that you cannot hide anything from the reader/viewer! They don't have to elaborate or explain to the reader/viewer at each step of the way but they should take us along as they investigate and discover clues. The best movies/books are those where the viewer/reader gets all the information by the end of the movie along with the investigator thus giving us the chance to think, use our brains and make our own deductions. Finally when the investigator discloses the identity of the killer/criminal - we get the pleasure of having deduced correctly or at least the surprise, the thrill at how the investigator reached his conclusion; that's the thrill of reading/watching a mystery story.

And this is where this story fails. They dont tell us anything about the antagonist - his history or background or character. There is no indication as to what kind of a person he is; we dont even know if he had really commited the crime? And then suddenly in the last reel, the SP starts pulling out rabbits out of his hat, one after another - proving that he was right all along and that he had arrested the right person.

Nor do we feel any empathy or respect for the investigating SP; because again the writers have failed to build up his character. All we know is that he is Suresh Gopi - looking quite old. At the verge of retirement the court orders him to compensate the antagonist for wrongful investigation. He immediately becomes a drunkard and starts fighting with everyone around him - all in the name of investigation! But by then we are past caring for this character.

My rating is 5.
