Churuli

I watched this film without any expectations. But I never see a malayalam movie like this . Because this is another type movie experience . What will happen when we trapped inside a "CHURULI". The Movie tells the story of two police officers who came to catch a criminal named "Mayilaaden Joy".

This is Thrilled movie from the beginning to end.

And the Movie making is also is Nice. There are many Mysterious things are hidden in this place... NB: STRICTLY 18+

Churuli is checkpoint in Malayalam cinema The film explores the same wild instincts in man and in a favourable environment it pops out alone with elements of SciFi and as always it's well directed well shot and well edited (keeps up the regular LJP standard in all technical aspects).. But the catch is it demands it undivided attention and deep inside thinking so for some mediocre folks its just a 'theri padam'

Stories about real raw instincts of men are director LJP's favorite topic it seems. We have seen that in Ee. Ma. Yow and Jallikettu.

This movie is no different, it shows how the socialized sophisticated men has the inner raw instincts same as any other so called criminals when situation is in favor. Presentation is quite deep and powerful

Even though, I did not understand the aliens, some of Vinayfort's situations and details shown in climax, one can easily it as a mystery thriller and connect with the main thread

LJP has brought another whole new movie experience in Malayalam and probably in Indian cinema. I am looking forward for the days he is placed alongside internationally renowned film makers.

This is an absurd movie. Its full of madness. It does not clearly explain the events that occur. The director wants us to come up with theories, he doesnt want to express his idea. I think he is the only one who knows what he meant. In my opinion, if the director fails to explain his ideas with clarity, the movie is a failure. But one thing that was great about this movie was its cinematography. That was fascinating.

From the opening narration of a fictional folk tale and a casual mention in one of the initial scenes about a couple of Americans being taken by aliens, Churuli sets its base for an absurd and abstract atmospheric film. That's exactly what the film is until the end, with its foul-mouthed bas**** of the Churuli village living unhinged. Is it a village isolated and observed as a free-living cult by the couple of aliens who appears a couple of times? Is the constant deja vu for many characters because of a time loop? Does the "Madan" change its host from time to time? Who knows. It's not about finding the answer, it's the journey through all that, the experience that counts here.

Didn't think the profanity is as bad as everyone makes it to be. Nor did I think the movie wants to confuse everyone either. Only because the people are so conditioned to have a story with all answers in it, people are confused, if only people stop trying to find a definite answer and find the experience of different possibilities, it would be much more entertaining and less confusing.
