Ini Utharam

This is the first time in my life that 2 hours passed so quickly. Every moment and every frame of the movie was so thrilling. Ten minutes after the movie started, the fire brought by Aparna Balamurali did not end even after the movie ended. ,Kalabhavan Shajon and Hareesh Uthaman's, Jaffar Idukki's performances is definitely at upper level. The Director utilized all actor's possibilities even those who appear in a single frame. The terrific appearance of Forest at the beginning of the film proves Cameraman's seizing eyes The audience will leave with the thought that Climax will be a new beginning.

Ini Utharam is the movie to watch! No gimmicks, no time wasting, the story was focused and no cut out for games. We were hooked from the very first second till the end. A mind-blowing script that'll leave you in awe

DELICIOUS

-Let's just say that the writer's brain must have been working overtime to come up with such a massive story.

We even gave up trying to figure out how the plot would unfold because there were so many turns and new developments. Plus, the diverse characters empowered the narrative. The suspense level was very high

-Cinematography was great. Camera angles were used in an adequate way to make everyone appear suspicious

-Harish Uthaman really redeemed himself in this role by intriguing us with his behavior

-The director didn't waste time. The story already started simmering at 22 minutes, taking us into the meat of the plot with a good balance of relaxed and intense moments

-The movie was intentional in underlining Janaki's boldness to go alone to the police station, shake the entire department with such news, and be ready to face the consequences.

BLAND

-Aparna Balamurali once again (or should we say many times again) displayed the same old facial expression from beginning to end. To the point that even the chemistry with her lover felt odd and the romance fell out of place. She didn't own her lead role but was overpowered by fellow actors.

An unoriginal and predictable but still watchworthy revenge & justice driven thriller that depended a hell lot on misleadings through characters and one or two situations to like hide the predictability a bit but it didn't work as the film had an old school twist riddled thriller template with an absolutely nonspicy screenplay to it which made the guessing game uninteresting and almost weak.

Hareesh Uthaman felt like the lead irrespective of the gender here as Aparna Balamurali's character felt underwritten as well as underperformed... yes even with the lesser screentime that she had.

The movie was touted to be an emotional thriller (certificate il anganau achadichitullathu) but i don't know if they meant it as an emotionally driven thriller or as a gut wrenching thriller, either way it was not....not even close.

Good for timekilling..... I guess.

A gripping thriller that successfully keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. The first half of the movie captivates with its suspenseful storytelling. However, in the 2nd half and towards the end, the pacing slows down as viewers start to figure out what's happening.

Aparna Balamurali once again proved with her versatile performance, Kalabhavan Shajohn with his usual 'Drishyam' style 'disgusting' villain police officer manarisms ruled the screen and Harish Uthaman with his style in converging the dialogue presentation made his role a mesmerising one.

Nevertheless, the overall movie remains a decent thriller. Once again, the Malayalam movie industry impresses with its ability to create engaging thrillers like this.

After drishyam 2 its is a terrifying experience to watch this movie till the end .The director so brilliantly executed to maintain its suspense through out subsequently the viewers can able to watch the movie with goosebumps. Actor Aparna and the police man who lead main role in the movie done their job appreciably. A must watch movie with perfect script and direction.

Siddique and shajon maintained their role very well .In the begining we will be surprised to see a women is surrendering for murder without any fear Infront of police .At that time itself we can smell the thread of suspensefull.
