Neru

Anyone would agree that its just a standard legal drama. The casting and the setting doesnt seem very expensive or captivating. But the brilliant direction is evident in every detail. Main characters have been casted very well in every way possible. Jeethu joseph does not need any special introduction in such a genre since he has proved his excellence in many of his previous movies. As an average mohanlal enthusiast and a consistent critique of his work, I feel that this must go down as one of his best modern work. He has input an element of his own as well as adhered to the character presented by the director. Movie portrays characteristics of resilience and persistence. A must watch.

Neru, an emotional court room drama is an absolute masterpiece directed and written by Jeethu Joseph elevated with Mohanlals And Siddiques amazing acting. The story follows the path of Sara a blind girl who is the victim of rape who's role is magnificently done by Anaswara Rajan. She seeks the help Of Vijayamohan, an underconfident lawyer who hasnt been practiced in a long time, this role is fantastically done by Mohanlal. As a malayali seeing Lalettan back at his subtle acting is just mesmerizing. This is proof that directors play an important role when it comes to shaping an actor. Vijayamohan Is Opposed By Rajashekar, a renowned lawyer who has been the enemy of Vijayamohan. This role is brilliantly played by Siddique. Rest of the movie you have to see othwrwise it would be a spoiler. I wouldn't say this is a theatre experiece movie but the film crew managea to hook our eyes to the screen with taking it off. I never felt bored even for a second thats how captivating the entire movie is. Although taking in Jeethu Josephs other works like Drishyam thos movie didnt quite reaxh to its level, it did deliver some goosebumps but i felt that the story was written in favour of Vijayamohan. So, its an average movie elevated with Mohanlals Comeback to Real cinema.

This is a decent attempt from Jeethu Joseph. Nothing like Drishyam or even Kooman, but engaging and watchable. The thread is good, but the climax was predictable and also very melodramatic. Also, the casting in the movie was off in multiple places. The primary example is Shanti Mayadevi. She simply cannot act and is awkward in a majority of the scenes. I totally understand, that's not her forte, but why give her such a meaty role? The victims mother also couldn't handle the emotional scenes. Also, Jeethu succumbs to the usual tropes of overdoing some scenes - like the incompetence of the first lawyer. The movie is also unnecessarily long and spends insane amounts of time on a CCTV visual. I'm summary, it's a good attempt and an engaging court drama, but not as stellar as it's touted to be.

No story, no suspense, just plain.

Expected a stronger and more engaging plot from Jeetu Joseph. Disappointed.

The crime was done and culprit was found in the first ten minutes. Then the seen too many times case where the hero first does not show interest and everyone else requests him to take the case. Hero accepts and then a very ordinary court proceedings follow. No real challenges faced by the hero. Overhyped obstacles. Villain is rich and has employed a Supreme Court advocate. No display of high intelligence from hero. No mass dialogues nor anything engaging.

A mediocre movie made on an interesting topic!

Since I saw lot of movies about court & lawyers, so I found this movie as boring. Initially I thought, twist and convict are different but unfortunately the same convict is criminal till the end. Catching criminal using Cc tv cameras is boring. Since i watched movies like drusham and sri mahalaxmi (telugu movies), some scenes seems to be repeated for me. For example, in sri mahalakshmi movie, the prosecuter disproved the witness photos using the mirror. The same thing repeated here.final twist is predictable. So this movie is interesting for people who doesn't watch above movies. This movie should come in 2005 year.
