    Bollywood should learn

    Recently the superhero genre has blown up like anything, while Hollywood has not only embraced but also found great sucess in superhero genre Bollywood has been left behind a million paces. Whatever little efforts made are either underwhelming or downright cringefest.

    In this landscape Minnal Murali is a breath of fresh air the script and production value especially VFX are really really well done. Best thing about this movie is that characters are really well done and not rushed just to fit unnecessary VFX fight scenes.

    I think the romance obsessed Bollywood shrills can learn a thing or two from this movie and try to churn out some good Original content instead of usual sluge they deem entertainment.

    Slow Paced But Better Than So Called Bollywood Superhero Movies

    The Movie Is Slowpaced But Entartaning And The Exfactor Of This Movie Is The Negative Character .. The Way He Act And His Screen Presence Is Just Mind Blowing .. Because Of Him The Character Of Minnal Murli Shines And We Loved Him. Because If Negative Was Not That Much Capebale To Act Fearsly Then The Heroic Character Must Fade Out But They Proved It .. This Is How The Superhero Movies Are To Be Made .. Last 55 Min Of The Is Just Awesome And Visual Spectacular.

    Best Movie Experience

    The first part of this superhero fiction is marvelous. Making, artwork, VFX and other works were great. The story was also portrayed well. One of the best movie from Basil joseph. Great effort and teamwork. Guru somasundharam performed well than tovino thomas. Missed the theatre experience. Waiting for the second part if there is one.

    They have Spiderman, Superman, Batman etc.. and now we have one.

    I believe Shaktiman was the first Indian superhero that too was in my childhood, after that Krrish came. Enthiran also was one kind of a superhero but not human.

    Now Malayalam film industry is having its first super hero movie.

    The story, making and everything technically was extra ordinary hats off to basil.

    Guru Somasundaram was amazing, cant talk more about his character as it would become spoiler Tovino also did well, perfect for this role.

    The only negative would be the background music.

    Beyond expectations

    This was beyond my expectations. But Basil managed to direct the movie so profoundly with every details being thoroughly gone through. Acting shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. But the way it has been directed, I would say I can see a lot of potential in the Malayalam Film Industry. With such a low budget, this movie is going to change the face of Cinema from Malayalam Film Industry. Hats off guys, couldnt be more proud.

    I'm only disappointed by the fact that the movie wasn't released in theatres. Would've been a delight to watch this on the big screen.
