Oppam

Oppam is an above average suspense thriller with a tight screen play, wonderful cinematography and the ever wonder Mohanlal aka our Lalettan. The film marks the return of one of the most successful pair in Malayalam film industry , Mohanlal and Priyadarshan. Though they are known for their comedy films through out , this time they return with a thriller movie. The duos previous attempt on horror thriller Geethanjali, was a big let down, but that is not the case with Oppam. The story is good, suspense holds attention and the flow is occasionally fast ( there are places where the film get stretched more than needed) . Songs are good and apt to the film , the visuals are stunning , especially in songs . Background score is a bit loud to the level of irritating , should have damped it a bit. Mohanlal proves he has not yet lost his touch , supporting cast also does the job well. Apart from suspense there is a bit of everything in the film , humor, action ( if you are a Lalettan fan, there is a moment where you will whistle out loud ) and emotion. All in all it is a complete Onam package.

Great production quality and cinematography, great music. Had potential of 9 or 10/10

Mohanlal becomes the Mollywood style Daredevil, the superhero in American comic by Marvel Comics. ballerina spinning Jackie Chan and that was the drawback I felt, it was a bit too much how he's blind whooping out 4 rowdy policemen in the room. That's when it hit me, of course they'll add this scene in here, it's Bollywood! you know when all is going dandy and normal there's a questionable scene coming. This abnormal activity blew out whatever the realism that was there. I am glad they didn't make him fly as he's fighting with all them ropes and pulley system.

I will watch it again

Last day i went to watch this movie after i heard a lot of hype rating the movie as exceptional. I have to say that it is a good movie but don't expect too much from it. The climax was somewhat predictable but the movie has its moments.

Special praise for the cinematography and the suspense in some scenes. I am actually pleased to tell that the fight scenes where actually very good. It took me back to the time when mohanlal was at the height of his career. My personal opinion is that the 3 songs in the first half of the movie was a bit of an overdo. But things get better during the second half.

Mohanlal has done some serious acting and all the other characters are beautifully casted. if not for some things i would have given it a 10 rating. I think that this movie can be considered a valuable addition to the long list of mohanlal movies and special congrats to the team behind it. Best of luck!!

Heard good things about the movie & so i went to check it out myself and i was not disappointed.

The film is written & directed by veteran director Priyadarshan and is a thriller where lead role is played by Mohanlal.The story revolves around murder of a retired judge, a blind man (Mohanlal) & its aftermath.

If you have seen the trailer & thought it was lame just wait after you see this movie, cause then you will understand that it was made so intentionally.The movie outright surprises with good camera work, Songs, sory progression ... the works, you name it & its there.

Its a strong comeback by the director after a couple of lemons. Mohanlal succeeds in making the audience feel the pain & struggle he is in & the director succeeds in making you stay at the edge of your seat.

A great movie & no doubt one of the best movies of the year !!!!

It's a neat crime thriller from a great director whose last few films were below average. Mohanlal is the key in this film. We could see his acting skills through out the film. Even his eyebrows can do magical acting. 2 out of 3 songs are crafted really well. Brace yourself for some serious goosebumps.

Samuthirakani, Chemban Vinod Jose, Aju Varghese and Mamukkoya did their roles really well. The gunshots and CGI was perfect. You don't wanna be a Mohanlal fan to enjoy the film.The storytelling is gripping and executed with finesse. Overall it's the best crime thriller of the year till now without a doubt.
