Ezra

Ezra is a much different horror movie. Yes it is true that it has taken some of the concepts from Hollywood movies. But in Indian Cinema it has totally driven the horror genre to new directions.

It was very dark themed and the background score was totally suiting to the Ghosts scenes and also in the rest of the movie.

Prithviraj Sukuraman , Priya Anand and other supporting actors has done a fine justice to there roles.

What makes it different is the showing of "Jewish rituals and there history " and it has brought a totally different taste in Malayalam as well as Indian Cinema.

It is a must watch and I recommend others to watch it.

The plot centers around Ranjan (Prithviraj Sukumaran) and his wife Priya (Raashi Khanna), who move into a new house in Fort Kochi, only to find themselves caught in a chilling chain of eerie events. The couple soon discovers that their new home harbors a dark secret-one that threatens to destroy their lives. The narrative follows Ranjan's desperate attempts to uncover the truth behind the supernatural occurrences and save his wife from an evil force tied to an ancient Jewish relic. Ezra is a solid entry in the Malayalam horror-thriller genre. While it may not reinvent the wheel, it is a well-crafted film that offers suspense, atmosphere, and strong performances, especially from Prithviraj. The supernatural elements, coupled with a chilling narrative, make for an engaging watch, though some predictable moments and pacing issues prevent it from being a truly standout film. Fans of horror and mystery will likely appreciate the film's tone and direction.

No Spoilers

Positives: Ezra is something of a horror movie which you can either expect from Hollywood or Malayalam Cinema. This film has beautiful scenes, this film tries to connect with youth, which I think lands well.

Being honest the way the story is narrated is something you would love, screenplay is also cherry on the cake, Acting is extremely good, everyone did justice to their roles.

Film has a twist which you won't even guess anywhere in the film.

Some may realize the twist but majority would not.

Drawbacks: 1. It has that typical horror film setback, a mysterious house, a new place, a new couple, gets into problems.

2. At times you may feel the film is getting boring if you haven't seen these types of films earlier.

3. Malayalam Cinema again tries to get into political, Religious problems yet sugarcoated propaganda is present but is ok at this time.

It does not disses other religions. But Malayalam cinema has dived into this side of Cinema where entertainment is combined with forceful Religious controversies.

Conclusion: Overall, better than most Indian Horror Films You can watch it 2 to 3 times.

Thanks for Reading.

Ezra was a different experience for the malayalam movie audience. It was the first time a horror thriller created in malayalam with the background of a Jewish story. The technical side, mainly the cinematography and BGM was fantastic. The cast including Prithviraj, Tovino, Priya Anand, Babu antony done their role neatly. Overall Ezra is a watchable horror thriller.

Brilliant visualization, amazing background score, thrilling supernatural elements and crisp editing make Ezra a wholesome movie experience.

Mathew and priya hav just moved to kochi when powers of the supernatural start to take over their lives. How they tide over the forces form the story.
