    Raw instincts inside socialized humans

    Stories about real raw instincts of men are director LJP's favorite topic it seems. We have seen that in Ee. Ma. Yow and Jallikettu.

    This movie is no different, it shows how the socialized sophisticated men has the inner raw instincts same as any other so called criminals when situation is in favor. Presentation is quite deep and powerful

    Even though, I did not understand the aliens, some of Vinayfort's situations and details shown in climax, one can easily it as a mystery thriller and connect with the main thread

    LJP has brought another whole new movie experience in Malayalam and probably in Indian cinema. I am looking forward for the days he is placed alongside internationally renowned film makers.

    LJP unleashed ..!!

    Churuli is checkpoint in Malayalam cinema The film explores the same wild instincts in man and in a favourable environment it pops out alone with elements of SciFi and as always it's well directed well shot and well edited (keeps up the regular LJP standard in all technical aspects).. But the catch is it demands it undivided attention and deep inside thinking so for some mediocre folks its just a 'theri padam'

    Madness

    This is an absurd movie. Its full of madness. It does not clearly explain the events that occur. The director wants us to come up with theories, he doesnt want to express his idea. I think he is the only one who knows what he meant. In my opinion, if the director fails to explain his ideas with clarity, the movie is a failure. But one thing that was great about this movie was its cinematography. That was fascinating.

    Eccentric, daring, insanely beautiful but yet way more to hit that note :(

    The flick creates its intensity afters 10 mins and it prolongs the momentum until Soubin appear. Well trimming the rest, the movie is riveting to the core, Chemban and Vinay are annoyingly intriguing, Jaffar is exceptionally a subtle hard nut to crack. Lijos urge to showcase himself as daring and ultra liberal is ostensibly evident by juxtaposing profanity in every dialogue. However, the story, screenplay, setting, casting and score totally creates the ambience to keep one's eyes glued till the end. On the whole the movie is an eccentric, magical but yet leaves one numb.

    Another LIJO JOSE MAGIC ....

    I watched this film without any expectations. But I never see a malayalam movie like this . Because this is another type movie experience . What will happen when we trapped inside a "CHURULI". The Movie tells the story of two police officers who came to catch a criminal named "Mayilaaden Joy".

    This is Thrilled movie from the beginning to end.

    And the Movie making is also is Nice. There are many Mysterious things are hidden in this place... NB: STRICTLY 18+
