Toby

Climax and the last song killed 2 stars for me personally. If he wears the taboo in his nose, the song should had been shot in the local deity rhythm or language. But it's lyrics are of a father and belonged to a church.

It's a movie, but audience would have loved the local deity hymn and praises instead of any other prayers.

Acting and action are shot in tandem. Sequences and missing pieces are filled perfectly fine. Music could have been better. Screenplay and cinematography makes you feel that you are in proper Kerala.

Small and short shots when you initially realise that shouldn't be there are justified after intermission.

Overall, worth watching for acting but climax song makes u feel uncomfortable.

The makers' presentation falls slightly short of being impressive; however, the exceptional acting elevates the movie. The music and background score, unfortunately, lack the impact they intend to deliver. While the slow-paced clips and action sequences could have been shortened, focusing on increasing the overall pace of the movie might have resulted in a better output, especially considering the significant drop in quality during the second half. The film feels like a reminiscent of the lead's previous movie "GGVV." Although the message, dialogues, and content are well-executed, their delivery echoes too closely to the last film. The star-studded cast and well-rounded characters receive proper development and closure, which is commendable. Overall, the movie is worth a single watch, leaving the choice between theaters and OTT viewing up to the viewer's discretion.

As any other movie, this movie starts with the introduction to the character Toby but it takes too much time. Toby written on the palm is shown atleast half a dozen time and it gets irritating rather than creating curiosity.

The police inspector character looks very pale. Every character speaks with a long pause that the people in the theatre started talking.

The 2nd half picks up little pace, but the climax is very much predictable, thanks to the trailer.

A person stabbed multiple times and declared almost dead can be seen fighting and killing dozens of goondas within few minutes, just like any masala high octane movie. Bizzare costume and actions cannot elevate the experience.

For example, when the main character is crying during climax, we cannot sympathize with him.

Raj was liked for his story telling and much realistic approach. But here, though the premises looks authentic, it's just like another run-of-the-mill movie.

Music and cinematography are top notch. Acting is very good, especially Jenny (both kid and adult).

But, the content itself is so mediocre especially for the Shetty 'genre', felt so much disappointed. Hope Raj doesn't fall for the love of stardom.

Movie is one time watchable. Neither extraordinary nor bad.

Raj B Shetty's performance is very good in the movie.

The story line is taken along in similar lines as Garuda Gamana Vrishaba Vahana (GGVV). But it is not as gripping as GGVV.

The story becomes kind of predictable.

GGVV is great. Nothing can match that. One suggestion to Raj B Shetty is that, please move on from same story line. Try something a bit different now.

We have seen underworld related stories from our coastal side in Uliravaru Kandanthe, GGVV and now this.

When we see these movies, we start to feel like is underworld that bad there? It feels like we can't survive.

I know it is not as bad as it is shown in movies.

We need to see different side of our coastal Karnataka.

Super loved the movie!!!. I was drawn deep into Toby's world right from the word go.. My heart and soul was all feeling for Toby, amazing performance from Raj B Shetty.
