Ratsasan

This Movie is On Another Level. But South Director should Dub their movies in All Indian Languages especially Hindi. Many people even dont know about this Masterpiece. Because of this Bollywood Makes remake of this type of movies.

A benchmark set for next upcoming psycho thrillers.

Mild spoilers: Film follows a whodunit style narrative and the lead cop is trying to catch the serial killer that's what forms the crux of the story. Typical concept that we usually see in investigative thriller however what makes it cut above rest is its screenplay and spine chilling bgm. Film has its flaws and often tries to deceive audience by throwing usual bait to confuse and later lead to another perpetrator, to me which was quite obvious. Make up department could have done a better job. On the acting front lead actors were convincing and has done good job. Positives: background score, Screenplay, Actors, cinematography. Negative side: film was quite lengthy, killer's killing motives lack finesse. Film definitely deserves your time and money because after completing watching movie it will definitely haunt you for some time for its eerie vibe and bgm that has to offer you.

I watched Ratsasan today and was compelled to review and ask movie buffs to add this masterpiece thriller in their wish-list. This is a rollercoaster ride which doesn't let you comfortably sit in your seat. This is the longest rollercoaster I have ever sat on. Very gripping narrative, with a mind numbing, soul quenching background score. From cinematography to editing to acting, all in all a masterpiece. Movies first half ends at a point, where you are hungry to discover the killer but the second half leaves you at the edge of your seat until you reach home, still in the reminiscences of the killer, one struggles to sleep. Yes, all of this despite being completely unfamiliar with Tamil language.

This is amongst the best thriller movie to come out of India. Period.

Now I'll rant a little. I'm a Hindi speaker. Why can't bollywood make even close to such movies. Nepotism and Khan kapur nexus has destroyed our movie industry!!
