Relatable movie at the core. Good story telling and the way screenplay was moving around indeed commendable. Every other actor did their job extremely well. Several moment were heart touch and emotionally draining.
Unlike similarly released calamity bound movies this movie goes through a story and eventually showing the issue in a simple yet the intense way.
There was no expectations from Jude since his last movie Om Shanti oshana was not upto the mark some sort of cliche third rate so called romantic movie but 2018 is totally different and huge accolades for such a fantastic creation. Appreciate the efforts made and indeed this will be historical movie.

I saw this few days back. To be honest I wasn't even aware that such a movie existed. It was only when this was sent as an official entry from India n it was all ov the news, that I came to kno of its existence. Maybe the movie wasn't advertised or marketed well.
It is such an awesome movie that I find it a crime that this movie wasn't known to me.
The movie is about the 2018 Kerala floods n how people helped total strangers, showcasing that humanity exist specially in the southern states of India otherwise the cow belt n other regions in India are notorious for Christians, Muslims n Dalits persecutions.
The background song is very touching n the background music is mesmerizing.
The character Anoop will stay with u for a long time. So will the fisherman family n Nixon.

Today, when cinema is being used to promote hate and divisiveness, this movie comes as a breath of fresh air. This is the Real Kerala Story where Everyone is a Winner.
Not enough praise can be showered on this wonderful piece of cinema.
Based on the real life devastating floods in Kerala, the movie takes the viewer on a journey through the tough times faced and bravery of those who rose to the occassion to help their fellow beings. There's nothing preachy in the film. Everything is subtle.
The performers seem real and relatable. There are no 6-pack ab heroes. No running around trees. Every character has a role to play and they all come together in a production of cinematic brilliance.
The screenplay is very well crafted. Creating a multi-dimensional story that has complex characters, along with engaging dialogue that involves the viewer right from the beginning.
The cinematography is breath-taking, the production design and art direction create an authentic world. The editing maintains the pace of the movie and the background music is top-notch. Should be among director Jude Anthony Joseph's finest work.
It's available in a few languages on SONY PIX. But my preference was watching it with Malayalam audio and English subtitles.

'Every calamity is news until it hits us'. This movie is about the 2018 flood and based on true incidents. Amazing performance by Tovino Thomas and rest of the stellar cast. Malayalam movies surprise me every time with something new. This movie would seamlessly take you inside it and make you experience the flood. Thanks to the team for making this as a movie. It left me in tears at the end because it hits differently! My heart goes out to everyone who died in the flood and to everyone who survived it. This film is of international standards and reminds me of 2012! This team made the impossible happen. Don't miss this experience! It's not an yet another movie but a epic one!
In this age of hatred, even people in the film industry are succumbing to political inclinations and producing movies that favor certain political parties while tarnishing the reputation of the entire state of Kerala. However even in this landscape, there are also cinematic gems emerging that shed light on the indomitable spirit and heroic deeds of Keralites during the catastrophic floods of 2018.

Every member of the cast impeccably portrayed their respective roles, delivering stellar performances that resonated with authenticity and emotional depth. From the lead actors to the supporting cast, each individual skillfully brought their characters to life, captivating the audience with their nuanced portrayals and virtuous delivery.
