Golam

The movie is a must watch for all those who love crime thriller genre.. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it.. The movie deserves much more hype and attention... The casting, plot and narrative are excellent. Felt a step ahead of 'Thalavan'.. The story line is not at all confusing as it has been the case in some other movies..Also the suspense element keeps one glued to the screen throughout..Nothing to pinpoint..Good work by all the crew members, especially the new comers..Never felt like they were new comers..There is a second part and the best thing is movie ends well..Hopefully they will keep up the expectation..

This is an engaging thriller where you will not get bored even for a minute. The crime happens inside a small IT company and ACP Sandeep is investigating it. In the first look it seems an accident , But an intelligent officer do an investigation and slowly many things unfolds . Lead role is played by Ranjith sajeev who is not familiar to malayali audience. His performance came as surprise and takes the film on his shoulders. Other characters like siddique, Dilish pothen are well placed and played their role effectively. Sunny wayn having a guest role.

At the end director beautifully leave the option for a sequel. That is also interesting.

During the initial thirty minutes, I found myself constantly questioning what made this film so remarkable, as I struggled to comprehend the widespread acclaim it was receiving amongst viewers over the internet.

However, once I reached the point of interval and the revelation came through to the front, I had my queries answered. The unexpected turn of events caught me off guard; I never anticipated the script to tread such an unconventional path.

All the technical aspects and the meticulous way in which the narrative was narrated, with every minor detail thoughtfully considered, are genuinely impressive and merit praise.

On the other hand, the conclusion left much to be desired! I fail to understand the decision to leave the story unresolved, as there seems to be no justification for setting the stage for a sequel.

Whilst I would very much like to delve deeper into the storyline, I must refrain from doing so, as even tiny details could spoil the experience for others, and I wish to avoid that at all costs.

A howdunnit murder mystery with an interesting story turned into a script that needs more drafts. The direction with the use of camera and music tries to cover up any weakness in the script which kind of works by the second half of the movie. The over-the-top use of music reminded me of how some soap operas use plagiarised over-the-top action music from movies for no reason while showing close-ups of everyone in that scene. Even though this was only two hours, it could still have trimmed another twenty minutes out of it and it would've worked better. The lead actor wasn't particularly bad but besides his chiselled body and stoic posture, he couldn't really bring the audience to care for him as the lead. But all the other supporting cast did their roles really well. The moments where I first thought their acting was a bit over the top were justified to be like that once the mystery starts unravelling. The different demography of people in an office setup felt quite real for the current time and not in the stereotypical way that is usually seen in movies.

There are a lot of aspects that may feel silly but the film manages to be engaging especially in the second half, and I felt I could forgive a lot of its mistakes. The film ends with a promise of a sequel which I can only imagine to be much bigger in scope and I don't think that is really viable with the current setup.

On the whole, despite all its issues, it felt like a commendable attempt of an investigation thriller that tries something different in Malayalam, even though it clearly borrows a lot from Agatha Christie to CSI.

This movie just suprised me. It's must watch movie for all who are interested in crime, mystery and thriller. Well written and executed.

With no star power or any big names, the movie Concentrated about their content and was confident about it.

The crew involved right from the director to the crew have done a splendid job.

The Content was well maded and displayed and the entire Golam Team requires a huge shout out!!

Wish this movie was promoted better and that it should have reached more people. And would love to see more regional languages are included.

Wish them the very best for Golam 2!!
