Featured reviews
Fantabulous performance from the entire crew , every role had their specific impact on this movie and none other than the maestro fahad have proved it once again that how good he is in his work. The story line connects with some of the past events happened in state planned by the politicians and bureaucrats. A clear and good message for the society too !
Malayalam version of "Nayakan" or "GodFather" , Malik based on real issue mix with some fiction . 10 star for casting and acting. In history real politics may be different, but as a movie Malik mark his name in Malayalam Cinema history.
The only bad thing about Malik is that we can't watch it in theatres.
Fahad Fazil and Nimisha Sajayan as usual at their best.
Sanu Varghese Cinematography
Sushin shyams Music top notch
A film Written Edited and Directed by MAHESH NARAYANAN.

I saw this recently on Amazon Prime after reading glowing reviews.
This is my first Malayalam language movie n also the first movie of the lead actor Fahadh Faasil.
This movie definitely deserves all the accolades.
Faasil gave a terrific performance n his mannerisms, his change of looks, especially the weight, is remarkable.
Another amazing performance is by Vinay Forrt.
The film kept the suspense throughout whether Freddy will kill or not and the twist came as a shock.
The movie has an amazing cinematography.
It was hard at times to read the subtitles cos the dialogues were pretty fast. Maybe a second viewing will help me more with the story n characters.
The only thing I didn't like is the ending cos the fate of Freddy is ambiguous.
Coincidentally i saw this one day aft viewing Brawl in Cell Block 99 n both has a lil similarity, a person is sent to a prison to kill another inmate.

Even though movie starts with slow pace it gains its intensity at the end and makes the audience to stick to the movie. Powerful acting by Fahad, Nimisha, Vinay and almost everyone makes this film makes even strenthier. Cinematography and direction is excellent, kudos to Mahesh Narayanan. As I said, its a lengthy movie and Alikka is an important character but portrayal of his role is somewhat lagging in some point and at the final stage of the movie very small sequence is given to portray his actions, which I felt could have been improved.
