Ronth

This move gives a different paradigm to the way we look at Police men. Definitely one of the finest unique Cop movies which looks extremely close to reality. Story revolves around a night patrolling by a senior policeman n a new recruit n the series of random events they go through. The last 30 mins climax brings immense weightage to the movie. It's slow, boring at places but very realistic. Acting of the senior policeman is worth mentioning. Originally a Malayalam movie dubbed in all South Indian languages including Hindi as well. Available in JioHotstar, my ratings 7.5/10!

One of the most highly praised Mollywood films of the year so far is finally out on streaming. I learned that Shahi Kabir, the director of this film, was police officer in the past. Checks out, his writing in the previous films have had a very different take on the Kerala Police Force. If you've watched Nayattu and liked it, you're gonna like this film, but in a different way; also, there's a surprise waiting for you in this film.

Most cop dramas out of any of the film industries are over the top action films, but this...slow-burn... is grounded in reality (for the most part) and portrays the 'other side of the life' of the police officers that most films fail to show. The film depicts the events of an overnight patrol and almost every single thing the two cops do during this time, almost drags you along on this tiring journey. You really feel it's dragging along but that's deliberately done to make you feel how they feel on a daily basis. If you choose to not look at it that way, you're gonna feel like the parts of the patrol seem very repetitive and will start questioning why certain things happen the way they did in the film.

Dileesh Pothan and Roshan Matthew were fantastic in their roles, playing cops who've been a part of the force for 22 years (and about to retire soon) and 6 months respectively. You think you can predict where this film is going to go but writing slowly peels away the layers and makes you go "Yeah, I was not ready for that. Life isn't fair." Great acting and writing backed by awesome cinematography (the lush green locales makes you wonder if the shots have been over saturated but you realize it's Kerala and that's probably how the place is) and good sound design.

I initially didn't see the hype, thought this was overrated but the more I think about the film, the more I'm convinced that this was a banger but it'll sadly not be rated as high by the casual watchers. Regardless, if you like slow-burn thrillers, you should definitely watch this.

Malayalam movie Ronth what a neatly crafted police story just mind blowing.👌👌👌 It's a story of 2 simple cops who work on a night shift patrolling and what all issues and cases they face is the plot and next day how it changes their life is shown.

In today's malayalam cinema cop related movies are shown very realistic no stylish approach, no big bang entry , no mass dailogue and all just being simple and realistic. The credit goes to the writer and director Shahi Kabir.

Shahi khabir is now one of the best writers in malayalam cinema and all his movies are worth watching and best of the best . Nayattu, Eratta, Joseph , Officer on Duty All these movies gave different perspective and stories of a police Officer. Ronth movie will also be in the list of one of the best thriller movies to watch starring Dileesh Pothan Roshan Mathew .

Was suprised to see Lakshmi Menon .She was brilliant ..a excellent journey from.reels to reality movies ..well done.

Excellent performance by all the actors how these 2 cops Dileesh and Roshans character explore the traumatic events and deepest fears that they have to deal in their professional life they have done full justice to those characters.

A brilliant story that is hard hitting especially the climax scene. . If you love police stories, crime thrillers then it's a must must watch.

Good film must watch very realistic narrations , you can't find any overacting, no melodrama

Superb , No boring sequences Directed well also Dileesh pothan & Roshan Mathews did a wonderful job

you don't need big budgets or loud drama to make good movies, simple stories which has real life toching moments are enough

This film has following .. Realistic screenplay Engaging from start to finish ,no boring moments love the lifelike performances powerful direction for sure haunting atmosphere

Ronth and it's team. Will show industry how to make good movies in malayalam with out bluffing wrong theater collection details and marketing tactics to get the audience.

To me, Ronth felt like the cinematic equivalent of the iPhone's Portrait Mode-the way it creates a sharp focus on the subject while softly blurring the background. Shahi Kabir achieves the same "depth-of-field" effect in storytelling, bringing Dileesh Pothan, Roshan Mathew, and Lekshmi Menon into sharp emotional focus. Their performances truly penetrate the screen and demand attention.

This film stands out for its realistic and grounded portrayal of the Kerala Police. It's one of the rare films that offers a clean, authentic look into the life and routine of a policeman-without overdramatization or distortion.

Dileesh Pothan and Roshan Mathew deliver solid, believable performances. They own their roles with the natural talent we've come to expect from them. But the real surprise was Lekshmi Menon. Her performance was extraordinary-deep, authentic, and emotionally layered. It makes one wonder why the Malayalam film industry hasn't tapped into her full potential before. This could very well be her breakthrough, and I genuinely hope to see her in more roles that allow her to shine.

However, I was personally let down by the tragic climax. It left some plot points unresolved, and I found myself wishing Shahi Kabir had opted for an open-ended finish-one that gave the audience space for interpretation. Instead, it leans toward a somber closure that felt a little too final for a story that had so many emotional layers.

Still, Ronth is a commendable effort and a fresh take in Malayalam cinema.
