    What a unique story and experience

    Shot in a mockumentary style, this film is super unique. The existence of a unique human set in the backdrop of a very mundane and unspectacular vypin is so rooted in reality. The weaving in of social comemntary like overfishing, land encroachment, unemployment etc also worked well. Nicely told story and a great watch. So happy to see this sort of work coming out of Malayalam cinema.

    A one of a kind classic.

    This movie is a real gem. Cinematic experimentation at its best. On the lines of Super Deluxe, Jallikattu, Churuli. Pictured with great skill.

    +ves: Director Krishand and everybody -ves: Not everybody's cup of tea.

    Bruh, what...was...that?

    This was...something unlike stuff I've watched from Malayalam cinema. I'd say it's unlike any other Indian movie, but if it's unlike anything else in Mollywood, it's surely the case with the rest of Indian cinema.

    This is a mockumentary style, under-2-hour, film about...the (human) nature, but it's also a fantasy, and the society, and the ecosystem, and it's a revenge story...I don't know...anything more to help explain the plot will potentially spoil it for you. It's several genres into one, and while films that try to do a lot usually fall apart real fast, this one didn't and for that, it's been winning all sorts of awards for Best Film/Screenplay/Director this year, and it's counting.

    It's one thing to have a unique way to tell a story but it's a whole new ballgame to make this into a movie bc not everybody may get it...? This, dunno....you've got to watch it to get what I mean. You're either gonna find the storytelling in this one to be fascinating or as a film, this might go way over your head. There's only one way to find out. If you've seen it, I'd love to know your thoughts.

    Masala flavour in an artsy experiment

    I can't recall a Malayalam movie that successfully used a mockumentary structure before. Even though it is also a sci-fi and a social satire, it is never chained to any of these genres. Usually, when Malayalam movies take such an experimental route for the industry, it is expected to be slow artsy movie, here this is as commercial as such a film can get. It is an entertainer from the very first minute. It shows the limitation of its budget in certain aspects of filmmaking which is the only reason I couldn't give it another half star. The same limitation in casting is the only reason I can think of why the makers decided to do an OTT release without so much of marketing. This would've been a great theater experience.

    A gem 💎

    I am a cinephile and I watch atleast one movie per day,as a part of it I got to know about this Malayalam movie as a suggestion. I searched this movie in Google and the poster looked so interesting, so immediately i downloaded the movie. I started watching the movie and from scene to scene the movie was running so interestingly and finally the climax was mind blowing. The cinematography of the movie was so good and the actor as main lead was brilliant,his performance and his looks are backbone of the movie. It was a new kind of movie upto now I didn't saw that kind of film,the directors experiment became a success, every cinephile should must watch this film.
