    Must Watch Movie

    A movie that genuinely depicts the journey of a woman through the tantrums of an abusive relationship and the self-doubt that hinders them from escaping the velocity of their captors.

    A wake-up call from all on both sides of the stick.

    Abusive spineless cowards do watch and think about the dire consequences before you act...Karma follows!

    After thought - The movie is directed well, a bit slow at times where it seems to drag. However kudos for not adding unnecessary songs and sequences to elongate the runtime. It would be great to see other directors and producers coming out with movies that touch on similar soft topics which are often pushed under the social carpet as normal.

    Amazing movie!!

    One striking difference between other women centric movies and 'Ammu' is - this one is much rooted and the protagonist never speak of ideology (or) is preachful at any place. The character goes through phases and even blames herself, accepts her husband despite odds and many other hard scenes that are so relatable.

    You really feel pity what will happen to her when she cries after the criminal leaves. That's the impact of this execution.

    The cinematography starts with an unusual dark engagement scene and ends with a brightly lit climax. Bobby Simha's portion really feel good after a long stretch of painful scenes. Do watch!!

    Average movie

    One time watch no suspense, you will not Find nothing. I was expecting something different but but nothing came out, if you are watching on Amazon or YouTube you will start skipping the scene as there are meaningless scenes they have added. Also star cast of movie acted well but the story is average. So if you had watched in the cinema I don't know how you spent 2 hours or might have left the movie un the middle. They could use many way to make more interesting but they just shown average that's all. I had many expectations when I did start watching this movie but first half was ok but second.

    Ammu

    A different movie. All the actors justified their roles and neatly acted. Kudos to the director for bringing such a social movie. The cop acted well. The heroine, Aishwarya Lakshmi, also justified her role. Bobby Simha as we all know, is a good actor, has also acted well. At times, we feel, the film is slow in some parts.

    When she tells her mother Mala Parvathy about the abuse, she tells her to adjust, telling she also faced abuses from her father, which could not be digested. I could not understand the dialogues between her and the beggar. Why that scene is required. Instead, she could have narrated her problems with the lady cop or her other friend. Otherwise, it is a good movie to watch with family. It's an emotional movie.

    A movie that is well written

    Ammu is a women that may be a part of our own household.. .. people may think that it's 2022 and this is not happening now ... the director has researched and a lot of work has gone into this movie .. it may seem like a movie we have watched before and not a new story .. but this not a story... we all ask women why did they not leave .. it's a million dollar question that is super easy to ask a women or a man in an abusive household.. going through with it takes courage that only the person who has gone through it makes when they reach a certain breaking point

    This is a must watch .. cheers to our men and women who have made that courage to live and fought in situations like these ..
