Honestly I watched it with no expectations. The IMDB rating is also low.
Over all not bad for an OTT watch.
First part there is some fun , usual Anoop Menon intellectual dialogues , beauty worshiping etc. There are few good characters as well. Towards the end it picks up some steam.
Then in between it is some what boring , some forced feminism , unnecessary buji stuff etc.
It has nothing that worth a theater watch, so I understand why the rating is so low. More like a basic story cooked with Anoop Menon flavor.
Nothing more to write. This IMDb useless char limit is killing the fun of reviewing.

Have you returned to your favorite places after a long time? Are you haunted by the guilt of wanting to go back? When you see the old rooms, corridors and courtyards that were once everything, do you feel that the memories are pierced and bleeding? Directed by Anoop Menon, King Fish is a film that tells the story of a man who goes back to the ancestral home of buried memories. The film starts with a romantic comedy track and slowly transitions to a thriller and also deals with a topic of contemporary relevance. Anoop Menon is also posing a bold question to the audience that in a society where the social trial of victims of sexual harassment is much discussed, why can't she reveal her name and walk in the society with her head held high?
The movie gets a few things right - the Ranjith character, the coming back to childhood home - nostalgia angle, and the things that happened in the house (not the cringeworthy flirting dialogues mouthed by Anoop himself). But some passable scenes here and there without any coherence or contribution to the main revenge plot (which we know is the main plot in the last few minutes ) doesn't make for a good watching experience. The initial gangster portion, the dialogues on the whole and the final act were underwhelming and I honestly enjoyed nothing in those portions. The boyfriend - girlfriend break up scene was too comical and artificial - though they seem to have been in a living together relationship which is a very progressive thing nowadays isn't it? Putting that into a movie must make it progressive too - or so someone had thought.
Overall - watch if you don't have nothing else to do - Anoop Menon is a good actor, a bad screenwriter and a bad director. He needs to concentrate more on acting IMHO.

"Every hero is a bore at last" except Anoop men on he is a bore from day 1. High time Anoop Menon look into another profession, literally everything about him in this movie sucks dialogue, acting and direction. Don't think I can sit through anymore of his crap, please stop making movies man.coming to the movie, truly a useless movie, only positive is ranjith. Coming back to thakkudu his cringe dialogues while trying to flirt women are some of the most uncomfortable scenes I have seen in Malayalam movies. Anoop menon looks like a wanna be teenager the whole movie, especially his clothes, which 46 year dresses up like this?
Get a camera. Shoot something. Regardless of how little, regardless of how messy, regardless of whether your companions and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as chief. Presently you're a chief. Incredible chief James Cameron has expressed the above lines to the people who are reluctant to take that first action towards making a film. I think Anoop Menon has applied that way of thinking in making highlight films like Padma and Ruler Fish. In films like Lovely and Trivandrum Cabin, those exchanges were upheld by scenes that requested those discoursed, and, surprisingly, the successions had that associated feel. It was around the time he made Ente Mezhuthiri Athazhangal that the motion pictures began to seem like stages for him to introduce his haphazardly written methods of reasoning.
