Innale Vare

Jis Joy has attempted a dark-genre flick for the first time and despite his prowess, can't save the film from being a mess in the end. With his usual hero Asif Ali in the lead, Jis also collaborates freshly with Nimisha Sajayan and Antony Varghese, two of the most promising youth actors in Mollywood. All of the actor performances in the film are commendable but what falters is the screenplay. The film that lacks songs has a thrilling soundtrack by 4Musics and suitable cinematography by Bahul Ramesh. While the first half proved to be an edge-of-the-seat experience, the second half seemed needlessly drawn and makes you wonder how it will end. A surprise (intended) reveal in the climax didn't help either. This is also a film where you find politically incorrect behaviour from all the leads (irrespective of gender) so it is, basically, a fight between "evil and evil" (similar to what the protagonist in Lucifer (2019) labels in a scene).

Streams on SonyLIV. One-time watchable.

It's a pretty decent thriller, suspense is easily predictable, but worth watching. Asif ali is the best in the movie , must say his solo performance saved the movie, bobby sanjay writing is good not great. I always had this doubt about anthony aka Pepe how good is he out of his zone and got that answer in this movie he's just an average outside the typical characters he plays, still a watchable thriller.

Obviously the predictable climax lets down the movie completely which can be presumed after few minutes of the movie , lag and average perfomance doesn't make the viewers intruged .The essence of the thriller movies are its climax but how can a viewer be engaged when they realise the climax from the begining of the movie itself thats the main crux.

The color gradients of the movie was lousy and such a awful screenplay , it could have been much better with a strong script

Positive : fight scene between asif and nimisha *Asif ali's acting in some of the scenes * few scenes of making can be appreciated

Rather It was sluggish and not at all rousing

Rating : 5/10 average as it released in ott.

Jis Joy is a director who has come under a lot of flak and ridicule in recent times for his insistence on portraying only the goodness in people in his preachy, feel-good earlier films like "Vijay Superum Pournamiyum (2019)" and "Mohan Kumar Fans (2021). It was a pleasant surprise when he announced his first foray into the thriller genre and with a star-studded cast including Asif Ali, Antony Varghese and Nimisha Sajayan, audiences had hopes that this project would be a turnaround for the director who gave us gems like "Bicycle Thieves (2013)" and "Sunday Holiday (2017)", at the beginning of his career.

But alas, "Innale Vare" is engaging only in parts and comes across as disjointed and contrived in large portions, failing to keep the audience invested in any of its three lead actors. That they were played by three seasoned performers puts the blame squarely on the tepid direction and the unimaginative screenplay, who fail to do justice to a good story idea fashioned by accomplished writers Bobby & Sanjay. The pace of the film is uneven, slowing down inexplicably in insignificant portions and racing through several clutch sequences while the thrills are too few and far between.

The story follows the journey of "Adhi" (Asif Ali), a struggling film hero who becomes involved in a extortion racket perpetrated by two mysterious strangers. While Asif predictably, makes the best out of the sub-par screenplay, Nimisha Sajayan shines in a role very different to what we have seen her portray on screen. Antony Varghese however, gets dealt a bad hand, with an underwritten and barely-there character that doesn't utilize the caliber of the actor at any point. Rony David and Irshad are reliably efficient in their supporting roles while Reba Monica John puts in a mature performance.

While the director's attempt to stray away from his core genre and experiment with an unconventional storyline is commendable, the execution was clearly lacking in this one. It is hard to see a very capable actor like Asif Ali deliver yet another sub-par film after a string of misadventures like "Ellam Sheriyakum (2021)", "Kunjeldho (2021)" and "Kuttavum Shikshayum (2022)" . Hopefully, his upcoming projects like "Mahaveeryar" and "Kotth" brings back the charming performer we have all grown to know and love. Watch "Innale Vare" at your own risk!

It is quite a -decent thriller movie. Even though the climax is predictable,the movie is full of suspense,twists and turns which make the audience sit and watch the entire movie in one stretch. Most actors have done their part pretty well. The audience won't feel any lagging while watching. I think this is a small budget underrated movie. The truth is ,the movie is better than some- big budget -big star movies. The movie could have been better recieved,if there was some slight variations made in the script. The movie just make the audience think about how a person can misuse someone else's cellphone.
