Mura

Notes: 1. Hridhu Haroon is truly a promising talent. He has a decent screen presence in the action and emotional scenes.

2. The other boys are also good in their respective roles. However, their bonding could've been written and established more strongly for greater emotional payoffs in the latter half.

3. Christy Joby's music (both songs & score) keeps the goings-on interesting.

4. The second half loses some steam, but the action blocks remain consistently solid. Chaman Chakko assembles them with raw finesse.

5. A cast-against-type Maala Parvathi makes for a worthwhile antagonist.

6. Suraaj easily makes for a believable Trivandrum-based gangster with a formidable past-something Prithviraj struggled with delivering in Kaapa.

7. The climax feels slightly abrupt, though the message (those who live by the sword die by it) is loud and clear.

A story about the underdogs and emerging goons/gangsters conveyed through a realistic narrative.

The story revolves around 4 closely knitted college dropout boys who aims to join the notorious gangster group of Trivandrum and the menace they come across their journey forms the crux of the story.

Musthafa has kept his bars high by proving his mettle again as a filmmaker and satisfied the viewers expectations by giving a good movie. Strong writing by Suresh Babu keeps the audience engrossed to the screen. The movie portrays raw emotions, bloodshed, violence, revenge,betrayal and true friendship and brotherhood through intricate moments. The storyline reminds of a phrase in the new testament of the Holy Bible from the gospel of Matthew "One who lives by sword shall die by sword".

Brilliant performance by Maala Parvathi in a never before seen avatar added with subtle performance by Suraj and poignant raw performances from Hridhu Haroon. Impressive performances by Jobin Das,Yedhukrishnan,Anujith,Krish Hassan,Vigneshwar Suresh,Kannan Nayar & Thenappan.

Special appreciation to the technicians behind the screen specially the DOP Fazil Nazer & the editor Chaman Chakko for their efforts in culminating an engaging movie.

Mura is definitely a worth watching flick on big screens for an engaging and satisfying experience.

Rating - 3.75/5.

I watched this movie with zero expecatation and this one surprised me. Nice movie with a decent story. The movie is also packed -with some good action choreography. Suraj and the actor who played the role of the close aid have performed really well. Suraj once again proves that he is super versatile with whatever roles he gets.

The main highlight is the acting of the lead youngsters. Hridhu Haroon's performance is superb in his role and he has a good talent in acting, the other youngsters have also tried their level best. The portrayal of the camaraderie between the youngsters were well executed by the director.

Expecting more movie from Musthafa, the director in the coming years.

Overall, a nice action flick.

"Mura" from the director of kappela"!

Did"t expect this much.......................................... There is no lag in this movie........................ There are so many new faces, but all the actors were acted very well.............. Especially the 4 key characters... Suraj and Mala parvathy did a well performances to their characters.......... The action scenes are appreciatable....and very intense violence scenes...The songs and background scores are great........ Dop is also great in this movie🔥 The technical side did a great job...... Watch it in theatres for the best experience..... 🔥

It's a total action film. Still not that good action choreography. It would have been a lot better if the action choreography was a bit better. Still a good watch. Suraj ettan just loved his role. He was pure swag in the film. The film is mainly driven by a friendship between four boys who were doing some activities with the local goons. The protagonists of the film are not good. They were also doing bad activities and the movie hasn't justified there activity as well. As I have already mentioned, the only thing that drives the movie is their friendship. Doesn't have brilliant story line but actors have done a great job. Especially the guys who have potrayed the four friends have done a brilliant work in their debut itself.

Overall it was a decent watch.
