Ela Veezha Poonchira

Film Review: Ela Veeza Poonchira ( Malyalam language film streaming on Prime Video!!) ( English subtitles available)

Synopsis: Two police officers Madhu( Saubin Shahir) & Sudhi ( Sudhi Koppa) manning a wireless police station in the remote Ela Veeza Poonchira hilltop in the Kottayam district in Kerala get news about a woman's body parts found scattered in different places in the forest below!! Will they be able to track down the killer and solve the mystery?

A different kind of a film where the first half literally crawls forward with things like the mudane day to day activities of the bored officers being shown !! Somewhere after the midway point is where things start to heat up .. and the climax is explosive .. the how & why are all explained and the ending has a touch of poetic justice to it !!

Brilliantly directed by Shahir Kabir, the cinematography is awesome and captures the beautiful green landscape very well. The pace of the film might seem very slow to start off with , but it will be well worth ur time if u stay on till the end!!

Saubin is awesome, giving a restrained performance all throughout. Sudhi too lends good support to move the story forward!!

The climax is somewhat explosive and macabre so friends, be prepared for the unexpected!!

A simple story narrated without any flashbacks, dhishoom dhishoom, loud BGM & songs !!

I loved the film !! However people who like fast paced thrillers might find it boring due to the slow pace of the film!! Better stick to Rohit Shettys regular ones in that case 😁!!

Yeah...before I sign off ,would like to tell u that this film reminds you of slow paced classics like "No country for old men" starring Javier Bardem & "Bad Company aka Nature of the Beast " starring Lance Henrikson & Eric Roberts. If u've watched & liked these, then Ela Veeza Poonchira is the one for u this weekend!!

Going with 3.5/5 for this one .. Adios 🙂!!

All the best team...

Just watched the movie at PVR Lulu...A well made story line ...Suspense was well kept till the end.... A wonderful movie ...Worth to watch....soubin and sudhi has done well...

First and foremost, great work soubin.

The movie has done great work in all its technical departments especially the sound design of the movie was extraordinary they didn't even miss a minuscule detail. The first half of the movie moves at a slow pace and builds up the characters and encloses us to that area by its visuals and by the end of the first half the movie switches to a thriller mood with some good moments of thrill and suspense.

Overall this movie should be watched in the theatre because the technicality of the movie demands it. Moreover, ILA VEEZHA POONCHIRA deserves it.

A good movie. A Well balanced execution, the plot, eventhough lacks steam, is all that of a suspense thriller, with an extra twist, That will keep you engaged enough throughout the film. What steals the show is the geography/location. Kudos to the camera crew and sound team. There are few movies those have taken bold naration using geographical space, this will be the best of that kind in Malayalam film industry. Soubhin Shahir and Sudhi Koppa performed extremely well. Anil Johnson on music scores again just rocked, we will surely see more of him.

A good watch film and, best to be recommended.
