Ammu

As many of the negative reviews above, this is not a movie to get entertained to feel bored. This is just a showcase of a kind of abuse and this is a movie not documentary to show different kind of abuses in 2 hours time. Coming to story, this showcases the thoughts transition from phase to phase for a women and a husband who thinks that it's okay to abuse cause he got to deal with his vocational pressure on daily basis and still loves his wife. Is he a bad police? No. Even a good and respected person at work can be a very bad family man. If you look into the characters deeply then you will enjoy the film thoroughly. Characters are well written, story line is well thought and executed inspite of minor offshoots here and there for entertainment. Introspection is very important after watching this film. "What we do is not we think we are doing". That slap and sorry is a excellent scene straight out of real life modern day scenarios. Bus stop scene transition was fabulous. A movie for newly weds and abusive partners, which of coarse they do because they love you sooo much, like Ravi.

Ammu is a women that may be a part of our own household.. .. people may think that it's 2022 and this is not happening now ... the director has researched and a lot of work has gone into this movie .. it may seem like a movie we have watched before and not a new story .. but this not a story... we all ask women why did they not leave .. it's a million dollar question that is super easy to ask a women or a man in an abusive household.. going through with it takes courage that only the person who has gone through it makes when they reach a certain breaking point

This is a must watch .. cheers to our men and women who have made that courage to live and fought in situations like these ..

A movie that genuinely depicts the journey of a woman through the tantrums of an abusive relationship and the self-doubt that hinders them from escaping the velocity of their captors.

A wake-up call from all on both sides of the stick.

Abusive spineless cowards do watch and think about the dire consequences before you act...Karma follows!

After thought - The movie is directed well, a bit slow at times where it seems to drag. However kudos for not adding unnecessary songs and sequences to elongate the runtime. It would be great to see other directors and producers coming out with movies that touch on similar soft topics which are often pushed under the social carpet as normal.

I have seen many domestic violence - divorce cases. This movie perfectly depicts the thought process of a woman stuck in the quagmire of a troubled marriage. And also of a man who is clouded by male chauvinism. Both the lead Actors delivered terrific performance. Script is written with good amount of research and so are the lyrics. This movie is lot lot better than (the Agenda movie - written carefully to undermine Hindu culture) " The Great Indian kitchen ". Although it could have been better but , I am giving 10 stars. Keep in mind this movie is from a debutant director. Expecting more from him.

The name of the film "Ammu" itself is an attraction. Good storyline! It has succeeded in keeping the viewers fully engaged with its plot twists. The 132 minutes duration passed away like a few minutes. The film promotes women's sense of self-worth, their ability to determine their own choices and their right to influence social change for themselves and others. It will surely attract the womenfolk and the ones who like family-oriented stories. A few scenes where Ammu shares her concern with the police; helping the convict escape from the policy custody; deliberately bringing lunch to the police station when the DSP is present at the station; secretly recording the conversation to trap the Police Inspector Ravi and reaching out to the DSP. These scenes bring happiness and sense of relief to the minds. However, the lighting could have been better or improved in the scenes shot indoor. In short, Ammu is different and is a relief from the masala movies. The director deserves a pat on his shoulder.
