Corona Papers is a 2023 Malayalam crime thriller film directed by Priyadarshan. The film stars Shane Nigam, Shine Tom Chacko, Siddique, and Lal Jr. It is a remake of the 2017 Tamil film 8 Thottakal.
The film tells the story of a police officer who is on the trail of a gang of thieves who have looted a huge amount of money during the COVID-19 pandemic. The film is set in the backdrop of the pandemic and explores the themes of greed, crime, and justice.
Priyadarshan's direction is one of the highlights of the film. He keeps the pace of the film taut and suspenseful, and he does a great job of building up the tension. The film also has some excellent performances from its cast, with Shane Nigam and Shine Tom Chacko particularly stand-out.
However, the film does have a few flaws. The plot is a bit predictable, and the film's ending is a bit anticlimactic. Overall, Corona Papers is a well-made crime thriller that is worth watching for its suspenseful plot and excellent performances.
