Featured reviews
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.
Greate experience.
Really a new concept of horror movie.
The essential element for every good horror movie is a grippy story line, which Ezra has.
Prithviraj is really a versatile actor. He has performed up to his potential.
Melodious music is also a plus point for the movie.
That's the reason why Bollywood is already heading to remake the movie, as they always do, instead of making a really good movie.
Overall a must watch for lovers of good horror movie.

While I certainly liked the ideas in this film, it is way too long, overly melodramatic with subpar acting, and has a very predictable story that a horror lover will get bored by pretty quickly. The good parts of this movie really do shine though, I loved the Jewish religion spin on the film and the Dibbuk box plot is an underused horror story so I was glad to see it on the big screen. The world building was very good and I did care about the characters (but more due to the writing over the actual acting unfortunately). I think if the runtime were cut down a bit and the focus was drawn more towards the horror and less to melodrama, this would've been a much much better film.
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.
