Ronth

The movie had potential, though the beginning scene merge was unnecessary and how they ended it was also unnecessary. Could have used the events to tell a commercial style story, something along the lines of Action Hero Biju in the tone of Officer on Duty. A missed opportunity. Because, the on-screen give and take was good. I don't why they chose tragedy, reminded me of films in the early 90's when tragedy was essential across media, let it be novels, serials or films. I don't know if anyone would watch films for engaging in that emotion anymore, especially it would cloud the experience of watching a movie if a hint of the story was given at the beginning. Even if tragedy was the aim, should have just started the film normally without any unnecessary editing gimmick. Otherwise, should have chosen to completely immerse into the slice of life genre.

The name Shahi Kabir is enough to pull you into this interestingly minimal night patrol cop drama. The leads (Dileesh Pothan and Roshan Mathew) are well-written, and both their performances are superbly effective. We, as audiences, get to witness possibly one of the most compelling, challenging nights they go through as Officers on Patrol Duty (pun intended). The North Kerala landscape also adds so much to the proceedings, successfully sending chills down our spine when needed. The cases they deal with are also emotionally hard-hitting and carry life-altering consequences, making each incident either add more baggage or connect to a larger thread of events.

The setup is minimal when you think of it, but the writing and direction are splendid. The dialogues swing between humourously relatable and deeply moving; it's safe to say that both sides of the coin are effective. And when you know it's part of the Shahi Kabir Copverse™ (loved the Nayattu connection), you'd be anticipating that feeling of heaviness in the chest as the film concludes. I'm amazed how the writer-director can tell these realistically grounded stories as a cop himself.

Manesh Madhavan's scintillating cinematography (almost 3/4ths of the film unfolds at night), Anil Johnson's affecting music, and Praveen Mangalath's editing all help the film to a great extent. Certain parts of it could've easily been tagged as "psychological horror," and I would agree. I was instantly reminded of Training Day when I watched the trailer, but Ronth is a greater emotional beast, and it carries a core that's easy to connect to.

Good film must watch very realistic narrations , you can't find any overacting, no melodrama

Superb , No boring sequences Directed well also Dileesh pothan & Roshan Mathews did a wonderful job

you don't need big budgets or loud drama to make good movies, simple stories which has real life toching moments are enough

This film has following .. Realistic screenplay Engaging from start to finish ,no boring moments love the lifelike performances powerful direction for sure haunting atmosphere

Ronth and it's team. Will show industry how to make good movies in malayalam with out bluffing wrong theater collection details and marketing tactics to get the audience.

Malayalam movie Ronth what a neatly crafted police story just mind blowing.👌👌👌 It's a story of 2 simple cops who work on a night shift patrolling and what all issues and cases they face is the plot and next day how it changes their life is shown.

In today's malayalam cinema cop related movies are shown very realistic no stylish approach, no big bang entry , no mass dailogue and all just being simple and realistic. The credit goes to the writer and director Shahi Kabir.

Shahi khabir is now one of the best writers in malayalam cinema and all his movies are worth watching and best of the best . Nayattu, Eratta, Joseph , Officer on Duty All these movies gave different perspective and stories of a police Officer. Ronth movie will also be in the list of one of the best thriller movies to watch starring Dileesh Pothan Roshan Mathew .

Was suprised to see Lakshmi Menon .She was brilliant ..a excellent journey from.reels to reality movies ..well done.

Excellent performance by all the actors how these 2 cops Dileesh and Roshans character explore the traumatic events and deepest fears that they have to deal in their professional life they have done full justice to those characters.

A brilliant story that is hard hitting especially the climax scene. . If you love police stories, crime thrillers then it's a must must watch.

This move gives a different paradigm to the way we look at Police men. Definitely one of the finest unique Cop movies which looks extremely close to reality. Story revolves around a night patrolling by a senior policeman n a new recruit n the series of random events they go through. The last 30 mins climax brings immense weightage to the movie. It's slow, boring at places but very realistic. Acting of the senior policeman is worth mentioning. Originally a Malayalam movie dubbed in all South Indian languages including Hindi as well. Available in JioHotstar, my ratings 7.5/10!
