Level Cross

A psychological thriller set amidst an imaginary landscape and terrain.

The plot of the movie reflects on Reghu, a Railway Cross Men who is living a remote and secluded life. One day a lady enters into his life unexpectedly and the weird situations that happens in his life afterwards forms the story.

Director has put in his best efforts to showcase various emotions like love,lust,anger,sympathy,empathy,betrayal through his characters in the movie. The movie is moderately paced and Arfaz has done minute detailing of all the three core characters in the story with deeper variations in their performance arc.

The interesting part of the storytelling is the director takes the story through the perspective of all three characters and leaves the audience perplexed.

Splendid performance by Asif Ali and the way he carries Reghu with the prosthetic teeth and makeup was subtle and spot on. The mannerisms he portrayed through his body language synced well with the situation. Impressive performance by Amala Paul and Sharaf.

Arfaz Ayub's debut directorial and the way he carried the movie with an offbeat subject gives the audience the assurance that he is from Jeethu' school of movies and should definitely be looked upto. Brilliant visualization of the barren landscape by Appu Prabhakar.

Arfaz Ayub's distinctive storytelling approach makes the movie worth a one time watch.

Rating - 3.25/5.
