Ofcourse Mammootty did well, but this movie is an illogical non sense. " Really surprised to see so many good reviews for this movie. "Mass movie" means showing nonsense with a high definistion camera and mind blowing background sounds ? First half is ok with some entertaintments but the scrip writter could have avoided the clownish acts of mammotty which is so annoying even for his fans . Second half is an illogical story showing the killings of almost everyone and how that can be an entertainer.?? I don't think anybody could watch this with full comfort for hours of extreme violence killing all good and bad charactors one by one with knife and gun . Atlast only mammotty and his brother are alive ?? . I always admire mammotty but really wonder how he is not not getting involved in editing the nonsense clownish part of himself and reduce the uncomfortable mass killings and extreme long violence ? If this movie make money ,that will be only due to Mammottys image and looks . This scrip writer and director should get zero rating and should not be in the field.The audience definity would have watched this seciond half of extreme violence and killing with extreme discomfort. killing around 50 people one by one with knife, sword and gun, good and bad. Is it really entertainement ?????
A One time watchable nbelow average movie which director made only for mammookka fans. Okayish first half with poor second half and cliche revenge story which makes this utter scrap.mammooka have to avoid these kind of roles. Waste of Both Money & Time. π
It's a known fact that the younger crop (of Malayalam film actors) still struggles to deliver solid masala flicks like in the 90s. This, of course, is enough reason for the two big Ms of Malayalam to continue to churn out lazily written, hazily executed trash like Shylock. Everything in the movie reeks of unoriginality. The treatment by Ajai Vasudev is stale (it was already evident in his previous two ventures), and there's basically nothing in Shylock worth recommending.
The ridiculously clichΓ©d revenge plot, the superficial action set-pieces, the irritating background score, the self-referential and borrowed (from other blockbusters) humour, the abundance of sunglasses, an unnecessary item number, lack of solid supporting characters and/or antagonists - Shylock suffers from all of it. The nicest thing about it is probably the absence of a romance track for 68-year-old Mammootty.
Verdict: Don't bother!

It is an average movie with all masala. Just see it to pass time if you have no other choice.
In this generation malayalam movie is producing somany good and wonderful movies with strong actings and great directions.. And there is this guy who still is in his 90s(mamooty)making somany worthless movies and his fans says it 'MASS'.....,ageless... How on earth this movie gets that much rating
