Udal

Such a balanced presentation. Each and every actor's thoughtful and intelligent acting. The unpredictability of each event is disturbingly thrilling. Indrans chettan has just proved his immense talent and skill again. Wonderful movie. Its a strong and bold scripting along with a very wonderful direction. Awesome work.

Udal (Body) has a lot more going on than the unabashed violence and gore that you would expect from it. Shiny (Durga Krishna) is a shady young mother of a boy living with her aged in-laws, one of whom is bedridden. She is tired of caring for her mother-in-law, further aggravated by her husband's absence. And the only relief for her in this mess is her new boyfriend, Kiran (Dhyan). Things are designed to go wrong when one night Shiny invites Kiran to her home. The opening sequences are disgusting rather than eerie, making me question my decision to watch this after a full meal. But soon after the night falls in the film, I was hooked. And so it begins. Udal is a decently made thriller that would remind one of recent Hollywood thrillers, but I for one enjoyed what director Ratheesh has concocted here. Which is an inconspicuous psychological thriller.

The movie plot is somewhat similar to Don't breathe.. here the premise is good ..they could've done better with it... 1st 45 minutes is just unwanted long shots for no reason.. it lags a lot.. then after that the movie begins and we're ready to watch some action and it says "take a breath"(interval)..so technically the movie begins halfway..

Now this is what i expect from movies... violence just like hollywood movies... I DON'T SEE many movies like this in mollywood ..i liked kala.. now this .. this movie sometimes feel like a serial .. the music sucks.music of indrans was good.. Color grading is too dull... Lighting could've been better.. the violence scenese are just awesome..loved all those scenes... Several mistakes are there , but i didn't mind it, coz what i wanna see is violence... Malayalam producers like to play it safe..so they don't produce movies with violence so that they get money from family audience... Hatsoff to the producer to accepting the violence.. some more money should've been spent for vfx (which sometimes feel off) , especially the last scene , it is clear that the house is not the only house there.. the vfx trees are placed wrongly... The director could've avoided some of the obvious mistakes ... Overall i liked it because of the plot and violence but i didn't like it because of the bad making.

In the dead of night, a man is physically tortured by his exasperated daughter-in-law and her beau. Why? Because she is tired of being the homemaker while her spouse works in another city. They have murdered his wife and he is next in line. The man is old, he can't see or hear properly and appears to be vulnerable. Yet he single-handedly fights off his attackers and leaves the audience awestruck. The entire second half is shot in darkness and this is the film's biggest asset. Performances are excellent. The background music is another plus point. Do watch Malayalam film #Udal in cinemas. Rating 4/5.

The male actor is not upto the mark at all. The violent scenes are good initially, but become unbelievable towards the end.

Dialogues are bogus towards the end.

Indrans stands out with his acting , as usual.

Watch this one for Indrans.
