Lucifer

Hats off to Prithviraj the captain of the ship for delivering a masterpiece with our own complete actor Mohanlal, an absolute entertainer which we won't get to experience much . The cast is just speechless each and everyone just nailed their characters , and all characters were relevant and showed justice to the story without compromising anything. There weren't much good songs but BGM was at it's best and went the flow . The long duration didn't give any sought of lag , it was perfect. A unique style of film making which we have experienced much . Felt Mohanlal's character could have focused and portrayed more . Vivek Oberoi and Indrajith atb their best . Won't disappoint anyone who take the ticket .



This review is all about my personal opinion and may not be applicable to all !! Hope you all will enjoy

So Lucifer is here and it was one of the most anticipated films to come out this year. Talks of this film were out many years ago and finally it's out and the responses have been mind-blowing. I myself got to see it a few days ago and while I do think the movie is great, I do think the whole 'lucifer is a masterclass' talk is false. So let's start with the good stuff. The movie has 3 main things to it which is Prithviraj's direction, mohanlal's utilisation and mohanlal's screen presence and finally Murali gopy's writing. Prithviraj is great here. His direction doesn't look like a debut. The movie looks amazing shot in mesmerizing 1:2:8 aspect ratio give us some gorgeous wide angle shots, clean looking action scenes, great use of tracking shots, it's all here and it's all good. Prithviraj knows what the fans want to see from Mohanlal and that is exactly what is displayed here and Mohanlal pulls that off in grand fashion because that's what he does best. There are some great dialogues here, references to other Mohanlal films and a ton of nods to other films as well which are great. There are 27 characters in the film and while most of the characters have very little screen time because of such a large number, they utilise that well and give of great performances. Vivek Oberoi, Tovino Thomas and Manju Warrier are the best after Mohanlal to give of captivating performances. However, the plot by itself is rather similar to us. It's not something new, however the stories inside the plot are where it shines. The political aspects, and the in built stories of what all other characters go through are great but overall story not that great. So overall Lucifer is an enjoyable film and I'd recommend it to people not for the over arching story but for the beautiful look of the film, some really badass scenes and Mohanlal in all his grandeur.

It's a good movie but I don't understand why it's so much overrated...may be it's a movie for mohanlal fans....for a normal person without any favouritism it's just a good entertaining movie just like many others.....

+ve : Well directed. Keeps you engrossed. Intense. Mohanlal performance keeps you hooked. L in Lucifer perfectly used even in intervaL.

• ve : Mohanlal has only one expression throughout and always in slow motion. Would have loved to see him moving normal too. Over glorified fight scenes. Story hmmm ya it's a movie for Mohanlal fans.

That's one way of describing Lucifer. Well, I'll just divide this into pros and cons. Pros: 1.Mohanlal - It's not a role with the scope for very high level acting. But he excels when it comes to dialogue delivery and simple stares and looks he gives. 2. Direction and Visuals : Prithviraj successfully created awesome visuals. Pretty good for a beginner. 3. Vivek Oberoi and Vineeth(dancer) - Vivek Oberoi has done great as the evil guy and the voice but Vineeth gives life to the character.

Cons: 1. Lag - The movie is slow paced. It would've been much better if it had more pace. 2. Item Song - That was totally unnecessary. 3. Some fight sequences - The sequence inside jail and the one in the sea. Those were unnecessary.

Watch it for a Mohanlal Show and Prithviraj's stylish making.
