Detective Ujjwalan

Comedy at its peak like gosh dhyan sreenivasan absolutely killed it in this movie and was great to see such a fresh take of comedy similar to ninnal Murali but with detective elements a bit of a scooby doo movie definetly worthwile.

So I would have to reccomend this movie to yall strongly as me and my brother mother sister father grandfather and grandmother enjoyed it absolutely peak cinema from second half the movie takes a huge turn and ur left clueless by what u witnessed in the last 15 mins so again I strongly recommend this movie to all that want to see a great family entertainer and enjoy memorable comedy mommemts.

Detective Ujjwalan is a refreshingly quirky thriller that brings a unique blend of humor, suspense, and drama to the table. The film tells the story of Ujjwalan, a detective played by Dhyan Sreenivasan, who embarks on a mission to solve a complex case involving a missing person. The film's narrative is well-crafted, with plenty of twists and turns to keep the audience guessing. The pacing is well-balanced, moving seamlessly from fast-paced action sequences to slower, more introspective moments.

With strong performances and a well-crafted narrative, it is a must-watch for fans of the genre.

Good.

Detective Ujjwalan starts off at a very slow pace, making it hard to stay engaged during the initial scenes. The unusual color grading and lighting choices give the film a strange tone, which takes away from the overall experience.

Dhyan, who plays the lead character, fails to make a strong impact. His performance feels lacks the intensity the role demands. The humour also doesn't work, the jokes fall flat and don't bring any real fun to the scenes.

The plot does have potential. There's an interesting mystery at its core, and the story builds some curiosity. However, the impact gets lost due to weak performances and average direction. This film clearly shows how crucial good casting is to bring a story to life.

The background score is another downside. Instead of enhancing the mood, it makes several scenes feel dull and emotionless. The music simply doesn't connect with what's happening on screen.

Things improve slightly in the second half. The emotional angle gives the movie some much needed depth, and a few moments manage to hold attention. Still, the overall performance level remains below average, making it hard to fully invest in the characters.

The climax takes a disappointing turn. It throws in unnecessary twists that don't add meaning to the story.

In the end, Detective Ujjwalan had the potential to be an engaging mystery. But with weak acting, poor technical choices, and inconsistent storytelling, the film struggles to leave a lasting impression. A better cast and sharper direction could have made a big difference.

Overall, Detective Ujjwalan is a thriller that doesn't really thrill. It also lacks a strong theatrical experience. In the end, the choice is yours.

Detective Ujjwalan is a film that I want more of, despite its rushed final act. For it's the world building and smooth storytelling that kept me on tenterhooks the whole time. A mysterious killer is out on the loose in a Kerala village and it's up to the village's incapable police and smart loafer Ujjwalan to find out who it could be. There's also additional support from a special police team, and together they try to unravel the mystery as the bodies keep falling. The makers have done a commendable job at building a fictional village, along with lores that are very well planned for future feature films. An overall fulfilling experience just short the final smack. I would watch out for these guys.

I would be honest - I had very bad perception starting to watch this - with Dhyan's choice of script and acting history - but the movie was pretty decent !

This is not a masterpiece or even a great film - but is engaging, most of humour lands and acting is pretty decent. Writing, especially towards the end was not that great - but overall, the movie engages and entertains.

The score and music are a bit too loud and editing is messy (especially towards the end) and pacing off in the middle bit - had these been better - this could even have been a great movie.

As it stands - it is watchable, pretty good movie.
