Randu

Quite surprised to see not a single review for this movie yet on IMDB and, here I am. 'Randu' is a funny and thought provoking satire. All the technical elements are good. Watched with zero expectations and never get bored. The climax is a let down and could have been made better. Overall, a watchable satire.

The movie starts slow and takes us through the life of an ordinary auto driver and his struggles through the communally volatile village. The humor is sublime, realistic, fits well in the story without standing out. The subject is real as we can connect it with the situation in several places in Kerala. The only odd part is the fight in the climax, for which the context was not developed in the story. The treatment of the subject was fresh, though its a common subject addressed in several movies. Best wishes to the team behind the movie.

Could have been much much better with little more effort. The subject not new but good for present situation in the country. Blame may be goes to the script and direction, it seems stratched should have been slick and fast. I enjoyed the climax fight scene it was little comical over all will say they missed it without proper treatment if the subject.

The movie definitely has a message for today's polarized society. Just for that reason it is a must watch. The ending was not convincing. Other than that thoroughly enjoyable.

Always a joy to see Vishnu Unnikrishnan take the lead role😃 Randu was pleasant and rich in every department; it revealed the atrocities of mankind with showers of humor

-The opening scene was definitely catchy: Loved the attention to detail with the capture of the pigeons and the movie title appearing above the mosque with the glaring flashlights.

Binulal Unni didn't give us a cliche story about religious clashes, instead, he dived into the personal feelings of the common people victims of these atrocities.

As the proverb goes "when two elephants fight, the grass suffers", and in Randu, we saw how much average citizens suffer while the religious instigators go about their agendas. The storytelling was so relatable

-The color grading brought out a beautiful contrast between scenes and gave a nice finishing look to the images

-You could tell the editor did his part with extreme care; each scene transitioned seamlessly making the story believable

-The director invited us to experience every character's emotions: embarrassment, humor, and pain.

-You cannot criticize the acting, from the lead characters, supporting cast, even to the extras, a marvelous performance was rendered

-Dialogues were very profound and sound design was meticulously executed

Bravo!
