Mura

A story about the underdogs and emerging goons/gangsters conveyed through a realistic narrative.

The story revolves around 4 closely knitted college dropout boys who aims to join the notorious gangster group of Trivandrum and the menace they come across their journey forms the crux of the story.

Musthafa has kept his bars high by proving his mettle again as a filmmaker and satisfied the viewers expectations by giving a good movie. Strong writing by Suresh Babu keeps the audience engrossed to the screen. The movie portrays raw emotions, bloodshed, violence, revenge,betrayal and true friendship and brotherhood through intricate moments. The storyline reminds of a phrase in the new testament of the Holy Bible from the gospel of Matthew "One who lives by sword shall die by sword".

Brilliant performance by Maala Parvathi in a never before seen avatar added with subtle performance by Suraj and poignant raw performances from Hridhu Haroon. Impressive performances by Jobin Das,Yedhukrishnan,Anujith,Krish Hassan,Vigneshwar Suresh,Kannan Nayar & Thenappan.

Special appreciation to the technicians behind the screen specially the DOP Fazil Nazer & the editor Chaman Chakko for their efforts in culminating an engaging movie.

Mura is definitely a worth watching flick on big screens for an engaging and satisfying experience.

Rating - 3.75/5.

Notes: 1. Hridhu Haroon is truly a promising talent. He has a decent screen presence in the action and emotional scenes.

2. The other boys are also good in their respective roles. However, their bonding could've been written and established more strongly for greater emotional payoffs in the latter half.

3. Christy Joby's music (both songs & score) keeps the goings-on interesting.

4. The second half loses some steam, but the action blocks remain consistently solid. Chaman Chakko assembles them with raw finesse.

5. A cast-against-type Maala Parvathi makes for a worthwhile antagonist.

6. Suraaj easily makes for a believable Trivandrum-based gangster with a formidable past-something Prithviraj struggled with delivering in Kaapa.

7. The climax feels slightly abrupt, though the message (those who live by the sword die by it) is loud and clear.

"Mura" is a Malayalam revenge thriller that delivers a powerful message. It masterfully portrays how vulnerable teenagers can be manipulated by powerful individuals, leading to tragic consequences. The film explores themes of exploitation, betrayal, and the devastating impact of falling prey to such manipulation. The heist elements add an edge-of-your-seat quality to the narrative, keeping viewers engaged throughout. "Mura" is a must-watch for its gripping storyline and thought-provoking commentary on the dangers of falling victim to manipulation.

Cinematic marvel you shouldn't miss, especially if you're a fan of debut talent delivering at pro levels.

A lot of films come and go unnoticed, and sadly, some only get judged by people scrolling reels in theaters. But Mura is worth every second of your full attention. If you've seen Pani, imagine it but from the villain's perspective-an intense and layered approach that makes it stand out.

The only minor downside for me was that the film could have taken the character bonding to a more intense level, which would have made it even more gripping. That said, Mura still proves to be a promising entry in Mollywood.

I've rarely seen a debut cast come through this strong. The entire ensemble is truly living and breathing their roles, with Hridhu Haroon giving a standout performance-he absolutely owns the screen!

With a perfect blend of story, script, and top-notch technical work, Mura is one of those films you need to experience in theaters.
