Vettah

I just found out this movie online while searching for a movie. The revenge game was amazing. Kunchako Boban as an actor has evolved a lot and he did full justice to the role. Loved the movie and the plot though there's not much role of Manju Warrier but she gave her the best and how Kunchacko used her in the plot was nice. This movie was different and the direction was great. You get to see the harsh world and how a small child becomes a victim of this.

Revolves around two police officers (Manju Warrier and Indrajith) who are entangled in a celebrity missing case and where they come across the suspect Melvin Philip (Kunchako Boban) who without any compulsion confesses that it is he who has done the crime. Efforts of the police go on vain as they aren't able to find the body of the actress. All this time there is an eerie atmosphere around Melvin Philip.. As the movie proceeds forward some astonishing facts come to the notice of Sreebala (Manju Warrier) and Sylex (Indrajith).. Which makes this movie an absolute thriller.. And you have to give credit to Kunchako Boban for his brilliant performance.. The Background Score by Shaan Rahman just bestows you into the movie and Direction by Rajesh Pillai deserves a special mention.. All together.. A really good family treat for Malayalam Audience and also the others who love watching Mystery/Thrillers. My rating: 9/10

A good thriller movie , go for it. Does not bore those who watch , A different type of thriller movie in malayalam film industry.

I caught Vettah on Primevideo with English subtitles.

The plot as it unfolded immediately reminded me of the Bollywood blockbuster Andhadhun, which was equally convoluted with never ending twists and turns in the tale. The plot in Vettah unfolds in a smoother manner than in Andhadhun.

Despite the twists and turns, the plot does indeed hold the interest and Vettah is certainly watchable if not entirely believable.

Kunchako Boban is very good as the psycho who actually is not a psycopath at all but the mastermind of a cunningly executed revenge operation, following a series of personal tragedies. Every time he smiled, there was an eerie feeling. He was also very good in the excellent film Virus.

Manju Warrier is slightly stilted perhaps due to her top heroine status, but the remaining cast are very good. The sets, locations, dialogues, camera work are as per usual Malayalam film standards i.e. very good!

The film is just lousy writing and with all due respect Rajesh pillai, bad direction. There was credible amount of story in that 1.50hr running time but the scriptwriter and director decided to do a convoluted mess. Acting department at the beginning was also bad but improves in the second half. Overall its no edge of seat stuff bud decent enough film. Could have made a better film.
