Identity

I watched this movie after being impressed by the trailer but the movie didn't meet the expectations . I hoped for an edge of that seat thriller but the movie was lagging for most parts . Only thing which I liked in the movie was Tovinos acting . He did one of his best performances and that might have saved this movie from being a flop . The Movie was cinematographed kind of Hollywood level but should have been a bit more bright . Bgm and other things were good. Expected more dialogues from Trisha but the script demanded less dialogues. To Summarise, only the last half an hour of the movie was worth the ticket and rest of the movie lagged for most parts.

To start with, the movie is not a cheaply crafted entertainment: the team has done efforts to make it something that seems like a suspense thriller: unfortunately, the efforts have not succeeded. Wholistically speaking, it is a slow paced thriller that does not get into the audience to be connected with the characters, or to feel for them. Not even a single character leaves a sentimental impression on the audience while the cinema is over. There is little emotional content that can be felt and related.

The thriller part does not excite audience who have witnessed better movies. There is a whole load of stuff as thrilling packed, but without any effect.

The theme is somewhat new, however, not novel. There are many occasions where improbable surpasses reality, which fails to connect to the audience. There are so many questions unanswered for the audience, such as the identity of the protagonist himself. In a nutshell, it is cheap parody of a suspense thriller.

I liked the movie until the first half, but after that the movie took turns like a typical Vijay movie. Over hyping hero and his career background displayed exactly like in tamil movies. "You don't know who my brother is", this kind of dialogues we have seen a lot in kollywood. Trisha didn't had anything to do and some scenes felt so artificial. There were so many unnecessary lagging scenes which could have been removed and made the movie little shorter. In some scenes background scores were bad, especially in the climax. I don't know how people rated this movie more than 8 and even 10. Tovino, we expected better from you.

Right from its announcement, I was intrigued to watch this on the big screen, yet I missed it due to fewer shows in Mumbai. Now, I'm glad I didn't spend money on it.

A suspense thriller where police officers hunt down a twisted criminal with the help of a lone eyewitness and a sketch artist. With many twists in the tale, there's much more to the crime than meets the eye. But will they nab the real culprit?

Suspense dramas make for a riveting watch, but there's a thin line between maintaining suspense and creating confusion. This film blurs that line, leaving you scratching your head in confusion and disconnecting you from the main plot. With excessive name-dropping and disjointed incidents, it becomes a mess. It takes almost half the movie to make sense of it all. The screenplay is haphazardly written, making you restless and even bored at times.

Tovino Thomas brings his A-game, only to be let down by weak writing. Vinay Rai gets a meatier role and does a good job. Trisha Krishnan's appearance in a Malayalam film created hype, but this is one of the worst choices she could have made-her role is poorly written, with no screen time or substance to perform. In their limited scope, Archana Kavi, Aju Varghese, Shammi Thilakan, and others are decent.

The BGM works in the movie's favor, creating a sense of eagerness. However, the suspense isn't something that will leave you shocked-it's predictable, and you can guess some twists from a distance. Logic also takes a backseat at many junctures. Tovino's backstory makes no sense, and many developments in the movie seem to exist just for the sake of it. Midway, everything seems resolved, yet the movie starts again with a new plot, testing your patience.

At 150 minutes, this below-average film could have been improved significantly by trimming the last 30 minutes for a better impact. With such a good cast and a promising premise, this is a missed opportunity. Watch it for the leads or your love for the genre-otherwise, there's not much else.

I'm starting to question the trustworthiness of IMDb ratings. I decided to watch the movie based on its high rating, and it turned out to be a letdown. The first half had some suspense, the story drifted off course and became utterly boring in the second half. From fake accents to cringe-worthy slow-motion scenes, it felt almost laughable. Random characters popped up without purpose, and the plane scenes were completely unnecessary. At nearly three hours long, the movie was a tedious slog. The story writing and editing were poor, and while the cinematography was decent, it couldn't save the experience. Don't be fooled by the IMDb rating, pretty sure these are bots.
