The effort and the quality given to the movie was amazing. I think more than 70 percentage of the movie is short in the sea itself which is not easy. VFX is not that good. I am a fan of movies which comes out of WEEKEND . All of them were amazing. But this one is not up to that level. Mainly because the motive of the lead character to join the crew is not justified anywhere. As off movie he never knew the facts earlier. But later in the movie it shows the different way. The action from Antony is so good. Some scenes were amazing. He is proving that he is made for action.. there were some extreme emotional scenes..

• The main character "Manuel" lives in a village- After getting into trouble, he decides to work on a fishing ship- He goes to work on the ship with about 15 crew members.- A death occurs, due to which the crew members get scared and get divided into two groups.

• After this, the story takes a new interesting turn and further events are shown in the movie.- Further, Jake reveals some new twists about Manuel's brother Daniel, then his revenge mode starts.

80% of the movie has been shot in the sea.

Sea scenes have been shown very well.

Mysterious things have been shown.

The scene with a fish is very beautiful.

First half Decent and second half Good Good Presentation Good Treatment Overall "Kondal is a best-made, #decent-#good to watch gripping sea thriller movie👍👍🤙 from a fisherman's side which depicts the life of a fisherman. Manual's story is full of trouble, fear, and mystery which will keep you glued to your seat."

Although Kondal had the ingredients to be a decent revenge film,While some moments feel predictable, the strong Performance.

Kondal

A revenge thriller story well scripted and portrayed on the backdrop of tempestuous sea. 🌊🌊

The plot of the story revolves around the minor conflicts and vengeance inside a fishing boat that had a vital connection with the past incidents that happened in the wild sea.

The writer trio has scripted the story brilliantly packed with action sequences and heavy emotions. Ajit Mampally has conceived the idea and rendered the story through the characters and the vengeance and emotions were brilliantly portrayed through the naked eyes of the characters in the movie.👌👌

Pepe has again proved his mettle in handling action sequences in the movie. 🔥🔥Brilliant performances by Shabeer Kallarackal,Pramod Veliyanadu,Nandu,Rahul Rajagopal,Sarath Sabha,Manikandan & Dixon.

The action sequences in the sea were covered brilliantly by the DOP Deepak Menon like never before in a Malayalam movie and the hands behind the VFX,Aswin Sanfran and editing table,Sreejith Sarang is worth mentioning for hooking the audience into the movie. 👌Ajit Mampally has splendidly crafted his debut directorial with a brilliant casting. 👏👏

A clean revenge thriller with heavy action sequences,layered emotional moments which is worth a theatre experience for an edge of the seat entertainment.

Rating - 3.75/5.

Kondal of 13 October 2024, a Malyalam film on Netflix. This film a wonderful thriller. Manuel(Antony Verges) comes back to his hometown from Middle East. He does not have any job on the hand. So he joins a team of other local fishermen to go for fishing on a trawler ( which was specifically built for shooting of this film). Before leaving, he indulges into fight with local goons who also are in the team of fishermen. It is revealed little later the reason of Manuel going for fishing. I have seen only in Hollywood films that these films are filmed for maximum time in the sea. However, Kondal, an Indian film is shot almost 90% in the mid of high sea. Here too, there are some good fights and other thrills. The film has been filmed with wonderful cinematography, performances and actions. A good film to watch.

Weekend blockbusters delivered another Enjoyable Action movie ; set in the Backdrops of Sea, majority of scenes are shot in sea gave a fresh feel and use of VFX IS ok ; especially the Shark scene crafted pretty well in respect to its limited Budget !

Editing is the problem i felt the main issue here, too many unnecessary long stretched scenes, a lesser runtime could have been more impactful and the conflict between the lead actors did not passed to audience to feel the emotion well !

BGM and Cinematography is Good and Actions are Nicely done AND Antony shown his Swag in mass role and all other actors did fine!

If you want actions in New setting ,this one is Pretty Decent option to Watch it in Big screen !

My Review of Kondal (2024): A Solid Action Thriller with Flaws

Kondal is a gripping action-revenge thriller starring Antony Varghese. Set primarily on a fishing vessel, the film stands out for its realistic portrayal of life at sea and its intense, well-choreographed action sequences. Antony's performance is solid, adding depth to his brooding character. However, the second half loses momentum, with repetitive action scenes and underdeveloped characters. The CGI, particularly a shark scene, is subpar. Despite its flaws, Kondal is a visually compelling watch with strong technical elements. 7/10.

" directed by Ajit Mampally, is a science fiction thriller that takes viewers on a complex journey through dreams within dreams. Starring Antony Varghese, this film challenges our perception of reality and time.

Get Out" is a brilliant blend of horror and social commentary that leaves a lasting impression. I would rate it 9/10 and recommend it to anyone looking for a thought-provoking experience.

While some moments feel predictable, the strong performances and emotional weight of the story make it compelling. A deeper exploration of supporting characters could have enriched the narrative.

The cinematography is straightforward, emphasizing the realism of their struggles. The score gently underscores the emotional moments, enhancing the film's uplifting message.

This film is mainly set within the great expanse of the deep blue sea, something that has rarely been shown on screen despite the plethora of Malayalam films that we have seen till now based on similar themes. The moments at sea are interspersed with a lead-in with stories from the shore, and this does make for some entertaining storytelling, good action movie.

One of the standout aspects of Kondal is that 95 per cent of the film unfolds on a boat adrift at sea. With Antony Varghese leading the cast, it's no surprise that the film is packed with electrifying stunt sequences, and he truly delivers and the setting amps up the experience. However, for the audience to fully engage and cheer on the protagonist's battles, the antagonists must be convincingly vile. Shabeer Kallarakkal, as Jude, and Rahul Rajagopal, as Michael, embody such menacing characters that viewers will find themselves eagerly rooting for their comeuppance.

The movie is just wow I liked it the fights were so good there were so much efforts the technical department was so good especially the bgm the 1st half was just so good and the 2nd half too it's engaging and enjoyable but they could have improved the cgi and vfx a bit more in the climax. Don't expect too much and an rdx level movie just keep your expectations normal then you will like it it's my opinion and its just so good raj b shetty is not that impactful no special role for him don't keep hype on him for this movie. Overall it's a one time watchable movie a typical pepe revenge idi padam ok.

VERY WELL DIRECTED SUPERB SOUND EFFECTS.

Almost whole movie is directed on a boat all the scenes are excellently directed . I can't believe that the movie's budget was only 6 crore. No special story although but the acting of all the cast was on point and Antony Varghese Pepe is looking so sexy .. overall i would say it's a movie that k can recommend to someone who jus wanna enjoy a nice cinematic experience with superb audio effects and who doesn't wanna think too much.

THE ENDING bruhhhhhhhh nothing thriller but to watch that action with the sound effects just so awesome.. absolutely recommended.
