Golam

During the initial thirty minutes, I found myself constantly questioning what made this film so remarkable, as I struggled to comprehend the widespread acclaim it was receiving amongst viewers over the internet.

However, once I reached the point of interval and the revelation came through to the front, I had my queries answered. The unexpected turn of events caught me off guard; I never anticipated the script to tread such an unconventional path.

All the technical aspects and the meticulous way in which the narrative was narrated, with every minor detail thoughtfully considered, are genuinely impressive and merit praise.

On the other hand, the conclusion left much to be desired! I fail to understand the decision to leave the story unresolved, as there seems to be no justification for setting the stage for a sequel.

Whilst I would very much like to delve deeper into the storyline, I must refrain from doing so, as even tiny details could spoil the experience for others, and I wish to avoid that at all costs.

A howdunnit murder mystery with an interesting story turned into a script that needs more drafts. The direction with the use of camera and music tries to cover up any weakness in the script which kind of works by the second half of the movie. The over-the-top use of music reminded me of how some soap operas use plagiarised over-the-top action music from movies for no reason while showing close-ups of everyone in that scene. Even though this was only two hours, it could still have trimmed another twenty minutes out of it and it would've worked better. The lead actor wasn't particularly bad but besides his chiselled body and stoic posture, he couldn't really bring the audience to care for him as the lead. But all the other supporting cast did their roles really well. The moments where I first thought their acting was a bit over the top were justified to be like that once the mystery starts unravelling. The different demography of people in an office setup felt quite real for the current time and not in the stereotypical way that is usually seen in movies.

There are a lot of aspects that may feel silly but the film manages to be engaging especially in the second half, and I felt I could forgive a lot of its mistakes. The film ends with a promise of a sequel which I can only imagine to be much bigger in scope and I don't think that is really viable with the current setup.

On the whole, despite all its issues, it felt like a commendable attempt of an investigation thriller that tries something different in Malayalam, even though it clearly borrows a lot from Agatha Christie to CSI.

This is an engaging thriller where you will not get bored even for a minute. The crime happens inside a small IT company and ACP Sandeep is investigating it. In the first look it seems an accident , But an intelligent officer do an investigation and slowly many things unfolds . Lead role is played by Ranjith sajeev who is not familiar to malayali audience. His performance came as surprise and takes the film on his shoulders. Other characters like siddique, Dilish pothen are well placed and played their role effectively. Sunny wayn having a guest role.

At the end director beautifully leave the option for a sequel. That is also interesting.

Except for couple of scenes in climax, the thriller movie is superbly made, acted and a treat to watch. Movie ticks on all boxes from story to cinematography to music. How does Mollywood keeps on churning wonderful thrillers which are made in low or medium budget?

The Lead actor, who is relatively new to mollywood, has performed admirably and does look like veteran in giving polished performance. Veteran actors like Siddique, Alencer has given brilliant performances. Important non star cast of movie has outperformed themselves in roles worthy of lifetime.

The movie also raises important questions on ethics and present cut throat environment, which we are living in. Hats off to team.
