Ottaal

This movie holds a special place in my heart as one of the most cherished and remarkable cinematic experiences I've ever encountered. The narrative is nothing short of captivating, weaving together intricate elements that keep the audience engaged from start to finish. The actors' performances are truly a sight to behold, each bringing their characters to life in a way that leaves an indelible mark on the viewer. Their portrayal is so authentic and compelling that it adds an extra layer of depth to the already mesmerizing story.

The synergy between the storytelling and the actors' dedication creates a seamless and immersive viewing experience. Every scene is carefully crafted, and every line of dialogue feels purposeful, contributing to the overall brilliance of the film. It's rare to come across a movie where every aspect, from the plot development to the character dynamics, feels meticulously thought out and executed with finesse.

In the realm of cinematic excellence, this movie sets a high standard that's difficult to surpass. The level of artistry involved in bringing this story to life is truly commendable. It's a true masterpiece that resonates with me on a profound level, leaving an enduring impression that lingers long after the credits roll. Without a doubt, this film is a testament to the power of storytelling and the magic that happens when talented actors come together to create something truly extraordinary.

Stunning visuals of kuttanad. Although the story mostly revolves around just the 2 characters, must be the screenplay and cinematography you never can take your eyes off the screen for a moment. This is one movie that will stay in your hearts for a long time to come. Watch it in theater if you can. Films based on foreign stories (chekov in this case) rarely come across as genuine and mostly come across as something is not right about it. This is one of those rare gems that has turned out quite well.

Soulful story, inspired direction, beautiful cinematography and haunting songs. Ottaal is a touching film that provokes a thought in you "why do we ignore these things?". We as a society live in denial of e problems around us. Cinema is a good medium to bring these situations to our notice. A compassionate audience can actually take action to correct the situation. Thank you Reelmonk.com for releasing the film online. The actors are newcomers and the lack of experience shows. But Jayaraj's years of compelling storytelling shines through brilliantly and more than makes up for the sub-standard performance of Ashanth K Sha and Vasudevan. The third character in the film is Kuttanad (backwaters of Kerala) which have been showcased brilliantly in the film. The cinematography by M Radakrishnan leaves you in awe of the wonder of mother nature and her beauty. Kavalam Narayanan Panicker's poem 'Aa Manathilirunnu' with a haunting tune at the end of the movie leaves you with chills down your spine.

The experience of Kuttapai life with the duck herds, his grandpa and his friend and of course the nameless dog.

The story is Simple with a Powerful end, The Narration is slow beautiful like a river a Flow, flowing through Fields, Villages with duck-herds swimming and Travelling in water and people with simple life style coming in and going on their small boats , travelling along with you going , and going till it meets the waterfall where the Boat falls and broke's up, Raising a Important Issue That need an immediate Address.

The picture perfect cinematography which captures the beauty of kuttanad in all its glory, and the music that adds to the richness of each moment.

Genuinity of the characters, the ethnic Kerala beauty of kuttanad to which the poignancy of the downtrodden was perfectly blended brings out the intelligence in the director.

One of the Best movie which shows the nature, diversity,language and heart touching contents. It clarifies the real image of the prescribed place and the title is absolutely great, because the the title is known one and now it is obsoleted actually. However it matches when film finishes. Till the end it is just a title. So it depicts the characters and characteristics of a beautiful place. We can appreciate it's beauty, really pleasant , good , and entertaining one and also we must appreciate the film because of it's nature. And also the movie gives a lot of social and relevant messages to us. It is a complete and inevitable movie absolutely.
