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.

This movie provides a profound and heartfelt "proud to be a Malayalee" moment. 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. Their collective commitment and dedication to their roles resulted in a truly memorable cinematic experience that will undoubtedly leave audiences feeling a deep sense of pride for being part of the vibrant Malayalee community.

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.

Based on the 2018 Kerala floods, the film narrates an incredible story involving rescue of the civilians who were unaware of the severity of the situation rendering even the government helpless. The timely intervention from the local fishermen help the incredible rescue mission. 2018 - Everyone is a hero and that is what the film succeeds in portraying.

The film is entirely driven through human emotions and for a disaster survival film, it has quite a generic screenplay with noticeable foreshadowing throughout the first half. What works is how honest the characters are and how real the terrible scenario is. With too many characters, couple of them and their sub plots take a hit, making one wonder they could've been dealt better.

Since the focus of the second half is entirely on the floods and the rescue mission, the director succeeds in elevating the second half perfectly while the bunch of good actors ranging from Tovino Thomas to Indrans deliver superbly. The effective 2nd half is what makes this movie a must watch. I was not too impressed by the visuals in the trailer but the final outcome is chilling enough.
