Lilli

Lilli is a survival thriller that talks about the ordeal and survival of Lilli, a pregnant lady portrayed by Theevandi star Samyuktha Menon. Though the movie got released after Theevandi, Lilli was the first film she acted in. The movie opens to some drab and lifeless dialogues. But later on, Lilli owns the show as the movie gets intense. Samyuktha definitely proved her mettle in this film. The other cast members including Aaryan Krishna Menon, Kannan Nayar, Dhanesh Anand and Sajin did their parts very well. Appu N. Bhattathiri has once again proved that he is the hottest prospect in the field of editing at the moment. The background score has its own moments and is successful in making you worried.

It's a subject based on a helpless woman-woman who may be unaware of the ways of the world-maybe lost somewhere in time-keep it up

I didnt know anything about the movie when i went to watch it except that i had watched the trailer and it had substance. But the 91 minutes in the theatre left me shocked. It weakened my knees and i wanted to cry and hit some faces at the same time. A power packed performance from some brilliant first time actors. It is not everyday that you get to watch a movie that literally sends some spills down your spine. You cannot expect more than this from a debutant director. Lilli (samyukta) the lead has given an award winning performance. It would be really unbecoming not to mention other actors who did a spectacular job especially lilli's husband, Ajith (Aaryan). I havent seen any of his other movies but after watching this one i have decided to watch his earlier ones. (i would be giving away the plot if i said more about this character) Dont miss this once in a lifetime thriller.

I'm a true movie lover. I watch a lot of movies. Even the really bad ones will be better than Lilli. Because Lilli can't be categorised into a movie. It is more like a short film. It is not because of the run time. A movie should minimum possess good sound and dubbing. All the technical aspects of Lilli is so bad. Be it music, sound effects, dubbing, direction. The performance is also very bad by every actors. Samyuktha Menon did an okay job comparing to others. Only positives in the movie is it's run time. It didn't torture me for long. P. S. I haven't rated 1 star in my life. Please avoid Lilli.

Lilli (English: given Malayalam name), an extremely uncomfortable Malayalam crime drama to watch, isn't everybody's cup of tea, and add to that the lukewarm performances (including that of lead lady Samyuktha Menon), ineffective non-linear screenplay, and just some lazy writing and it ends up as a below average watch that is not sure what it wants to convey exactly.
