Malik

I saw this recently on Amazon Prime after reading glowing reviews.

This is my first Malayalam language movie n also the first movie of the lead actor Fahadh Faasil.

This movie definitely deserves all the accolades.

Faasil gave a terrific performance n his mannerisms, his change of looks, especially the weight, is remarkable.

Another amazing performance is by Vinay Forrt.

The film kept the suspense throughout whether Freddy will kill or not and the twist came as a shock.

The movie has an amazing cinematography.

It was hard at times to read the subtitles cos the dialogues were pretty fast. Maybe a second viewing will help me more with the story n characters.

The only thing I didn't like is the ending cos the fate of Freddy is ambiguous.

Coincidentally i saw this one day aft viewing Brawl in Cell Block 99 n both has a lil similarity, a person is sent to a prison to kill another inmate.

Malayalam version of "Nayakan" or "GodFather" , Malik based on real issue mix with some fiction . 10 star for casting and acting. In history real politics may be different, but as a movie Malik mark his name in Malayalam Cinema history.

Even though movie starts with slow pace it gains its intensity at the end and makes the audience to stick to the movie. Powerful acting by Fahad, Nimisha, Vinay and almost everyone makes this film makes even strenthier. Cinematography and direction is excellent, kudos to Mahesh Narayanan. As I said, its a lengthy movie and Alikka is an important character but portrayal of his role is somewhat lagging in some point and at the final stage of the movie very small sequence is given to portray his actions, which I felt could have been improved.

I liked this movie and idk about other people but as a 16 year old boy i liked this film to the core.

What a brilliant movie and awesome actor Fahad, u r the malik in malayalam industry....
