Raastha

If you're looking for a hidden gem, give Rasta a chance. It's a gripping and well-crafted film that deserves more attention. Don't let its box office performance deter you - this movie is worth watching! The cinematography was stunning, the movie was filmed in the beautiful landscapes of Oman .The director's vision and skill in bringing the story to life is worth mentioning. The cast and crew which were mainly comprised of newcomers also did a good job .This movie is worth watching. This movie keeps the viewers engaged from start to finish. The movie's narrative is also complex and engaging from start to finish.

The introduction was fine, but as the story progressed, everything collapsed like a house of cards. From the trailer, we all knew that this is going to be a survival thriller so we all wait for that point in the movie where they ends up in a situation like that and there should be a proper logic for circumstances that happens afterwards and that's where the creators should put more emphasis. Emotional connection is important and the movie should have a proper storyline to take the audience with the story. This movie lacked everything and way too much time was taken for character development in the first half which was unnecessary.

The producion design was okay though.

I came to know that the film was released only because director called the father of a person who was reviewing the money, there was no promotion at all, there were only 100 people in the theatre, on the fourth day of the film's release. There was no expectation and the same was the case with a 30-40 minutes in the first half of the film, and then it felt a little better, by the time the interval. Then the second half had no words , the making that looked like a Hollywood movie, the scenes, the film that was watched without any expectations and at the end of the day i got to see people standing up and clapping their hands, in a word it was a great film.

Very poor direction, character development is less. Except for 2 actors all others are belonging to one community. For a malayalam film this is a travesty. Still the story is nice, decent attempt. But still its a C grade movie. The lead looks like Prithviraj. Lead actress hardly has any scenes. Few known actors, dunno why they they signed up for this film.

Please keep Logic aside, characters behaviour defies logic, if you are lost in desert you conserve water, if there is a desert storm you cover your head/nose.

The characters seem educated but behaves like they are stupid in crisis.

Locations are nice, good desert scenes hence watch the movie if you have nothing else to watch. Maybe watch this for a perfect example of how a movie should not be made.
