Dhoomam

So much metal is one gun... OMG such a treat to watch. Special hats off to the AC/DC screenplay and such a crisp editing and a note to Pawan's direction.. but yet the winner is just one my dear FAHADH ... THE WAY THIS GUY HAS CARRIED THIS CHARACTER.. A big loud applause.. yes it lacks the masala and the ending xould have been a bit more emotional and dramatic.. u know its part of cinema making... but on all other grounds of cinematics its a pure treat to watch... keeps you glued... Aparna and Roshan have done well... i think fahadh is promoting vineeth yet again well done performance... overall a great watch... brilliant performances.. adressing a social issue ... last a big hi to the story telling technique... Awesome Mausam... good job guys.

Dhoomam delivers solid performances from Fahadh Fasil and Roshan Mathew. The story is great with a much needed message but falls short of an engaging screenplay.

The pace is slow, many predictable portions and poor editing. Jump cuts throught the first half makes the story less appealing. It confuses rather than suspense. The time is also a concern, could have cut short it further.

Music is ok but it does not add to the script.

Suspense holds till the end and the ending is good. Actors are great.

Can be watched for a different story line but as a whole film, it fails to deliver what it intends to.

The start is with the protagonist Faahad Fasilgiving lift to his friend (Aparna Balamurali) in an audi car in rain only to get injected with some drug by a stranger and finds himself on top of a hill with the car exploding minutes after him walking out. As unconvincing as it is, the screenplay is too far from reality as Faahad has revealed super strength like powers who carries Aparna to a godown. And the rest of story is a game of expected trivia between Faahad and Roshan Mathews(Sid) in act of survival.

Inshort the film is "Survivor series" remade in the length of a movie. Roshan Mathews gave a good performance impacting his role and the plot of the film but the rest of the Cast are merely puppets and address flaws in the script itself.

Good Screenplay. The movie keeps you engaged throughout. Little long though.

The movie doesn't have any connection like it was explained as in the pre release publicity. Just one scene is about how the Statuary Warning... I don't know who that actress is, but she was the only hot girl in the movie. Jut joking on the outfits used. This is a typical Malayalam type of movie, with little mismatch in Kannada dubbing at times.

Over all, you can watch this movie once. You should wait till the end of the movie for you to like it to an extent. Since this is Hombale Product, you can watch it on OTT post release, but make sure that you watch in one go.

I watched it in Malayalam version in California.

We get uturn kind of vibe. Story is gripping and you will be able to connect the dots if you analyze it in the end. I will not spoil it for you guys. Everything is explained and you will understand it if you think about it a bit.. The rise of one character and downfall of another shown in the song was really good.

Background music was really good as well.

Interval bang is also interesting, unexpected Between interval and climax it gets a little slow, you have to wait patiently.

If entire movie travels at 70mph, climax travels at 100mph, so the sudden change in pace will confuse majority of the audience.

This is one of those movies you have to watch again when it comes to OTT

Enjoy.
