Featured review
Intriguing psychological drama with Lalettan as the main character. The title of the movie is in red letters and it looks as if it's written in blood. The scene in which Sathyan is transferred from the District Jail of Kozhikode to the Central Prison has ominous background music as Sathyan views the outside world for the last time in his life. Lalettan as Sathyanathan may seem like the villain but as you watch the movie, you might see him as a conflicted man who was only doing what he thought was right by not using the best method. Killing people is wrong, evil, malicious etc but there's a bigger atrocity shown in this movie which is human trafficking. It's a major atrocity and there's no action being taken against it. There are two underage girls in this movie that were on the verge of falling victim to it and Sathyan thought that the only way to save was to kill them so they could die and go to heaven in peace. In other words, Sathyan's actions are wrong and condemnable but he did it for the greater good. I'm not supporting or encouraging crime or anything like that. I'm just saying that sometimes people make the wrong choices for the right reasons but they can still be wrong and Sathyan made the wrong choice but for the right reason but his way is the wrong way. Anyhow, Sathyan is a telanted aritst who does lots of paintings and I myself am an aritst but I don't paint, instead I do app art. For Example, I use Canva to make designs. Now back to the movie, Sathyan has painted not only oridinary paintings but he also painted signboards and billboards. I honestly find it somewhat odd as to why Sathyan killed Vijayan considering that they were friends but I realized why later in the movie. I would say Augustine as Chandran is the main villain in this movie since he's a pimp. Sathyan gave him just what he deserved which was a thrashing. Now, the murder scene is horrifying and very very gruesome with scary background music. However, the climax is the most terrifying of all as Sathyan is gonna be hanged to death. The scene where Sathyan is escorted to the gallows is the most terrifying as the scene has scary background music. The ending makes you want to cry as Jaya weeps over Sathyan's dead body. This movie was meant to end sad as it would make the most sense. Sadly, not all stories end happy and this 🎥 was bound to end sad.
