C U Soon

Just watched it on Amazon Prime on the 'Thiruvonam' day from Denver, Colorado. Quite frankly it was so hard to switch off 'Searching' expectation. But, as the movie progressed , it got me glued to my seat and switch off that other movie's 'screenplay'. The story is very good (not perfect for the small plot holes etc) and the acting is excellent, starting of course with Fahad and others. PS: Must watch and enjoy the flow of the movie than trying to make sense of the format if you are not used to it. It is an experimental one and I am glad Malayalam movie industry jumped at it. MG

#Review #OnamPremiere #CUSoon #AmazonPrime #MalayalamMovie #FahadhFaasil #SpoilerFree After the magnum opus that was Take Off, Mahesh Narayanan blows it out of the park again with the spine-tingling, compelling thriller that is C U Soon. Inspired heavily from the narrative style of films like Searching and Unfriended: Dark Web, the story moves forward primarily through Google Duo video calls and Face-time as a web-security expert searches far and wide for his cousins missing girlfriend. The nuance and subtlety driven into each character by the three brilliant leads-Fahadh, Roshan Mathew and Darshana Rajendran instantly buy you into the storyline. While Fahadh as usual captivates you with his eyes, Roshan conveys the urgency and desperation of his character with elan. However, it is Darshana Rajendran who steals the show as the initially timid 'Anumol' who becomes a well-fleshed out and awe-inspiring character towards the end. The fact that this film was conceived and shot completely at home, via iPhones and tablets during lockdown just goes to prove the adage from Johnny Flora "If necessity is the Mother of Invention, than adversity must surely be the Father of Re-invention." Highly recommended.

Don't miss it..now switching to Malayalam cinema for sure

Everytime Malayalam film industry is proving why they are the best film industry right now. Hats off to them for creating such types of gems again and again.

It's editing, BGM, screenplay are just extraordinary. What to say about acting when the names of Fahadh Faasil and Roshan Mathew are there. Darshana Rajendran also gives a very impactful performance. Rather than giving excuse of budget, every Film industry should learn from Malayalam Film Industry.

Can be called better than 2018 film Searching, because the whole shooting of the film is done on this pandemic situation.

Available on Amazon Prime Video.

The story is simply awesome, 97 mins will be your's worth watching for this movie. Fahadh Faasil gets the breakthrough of this thriller, mysterious and puzzled plot which involves the audience so depply into it. Director and producer's have made a good use of OTT platform and gave their best to convey the message to the viewers. Malayalam industry has tried something out of the box to present the whole plot in a virtual reality way and I believe they have been successful in doing this. Can't wait for the theatrical release.

Ps: Please don't judge this movie by watching trailer, just directly watch this movie. That's why i didn't reveal the story.
