    Worst Movie!!! Shocking......

    My head got expanded after watching this movie. No logics, worst acting.

    What a waste of time !

    Penguin goes through micro speed and expects you to have macro patience.

    Keerthi Suresh's character: Stupidity written all over. The prime sense of motherhood / especially during pregnancy is all about protecting the child. It goes through the roof. I forgot the count of times that Keerthy's character as a mother left the elder kid unattended and then searching for it. Doing all crazy things that no pregnant woman would do.

    Dialogues: It demonstrates the lack of life experience of the director. Not relevant most times

    Cinematography: No big complaint's there

    Music: I don't think Santhosh Narayanan understood the mood and tone to be portrayed. It's a classic conflict that destroys the complete movie. I don't know how the director wants to walk us through but Santosh's music taking us through a different genre (Unfortunately not good)

    In essence, there is no cohesion in delivering this project. Is this a psych killer, revenge drama, strong willed mother story or new age dark themed tech thriller??

    Absolutely incompetent for a theatrical release. Pretentious and insincere acting all through. A loosely conceived, poorly designed, incorrectly executed, not so genuine bogus thriller.

    Sheer trash with senseless story line

    Utterly disappointing story line with needless histronics by Keerthy Suresh. Not sure how she fell prey to this dumb story unless desperation took its toll... it had everything in it ... excepting relevant story substance... the regular drone views of kodaikanal and its beautiful winding roads appear interesting, especially with bluish tinge to the lush greenery... story is spoilt... so not sharing any spoilers :) how can i actually give away to reveal true nature of her friend and a vile doctor ?? Doggie has a fairly good role and acting

    Movie which had a potential of 10/10.

    The post-production, direction, screenplay and story completely messed this up. Trailer was on another level but the movie didn't justify it. Music was fresh but unnecessary sometimes. Felt like it was rushed without concluding plot-holes and committing to the story. Disappointed.

    Feel the pure pain and agony-- why you are watching this moive.

    After watching "Prisoners" last week and followed by watching the trailer of "Penguin" i had the opinion, some Indian movie will match Prisoners, coz i felt story line would have been the same.

    The story writer may have picked up all the points from different movies and made at a mish-mash of it .....and loo and behold ....we have Penguine.

    Feeling very sorry for talented Keerthy Suresh for picking up this movie.

    The director wants to trigger sympathy out the charcter of Rhythm making her to in be advanced pregnancy ....but he fails miserable to evoke the feeling of mother hood - she goes on at length to look for her son for years. Her divorce - missing child - pregnancy failed to bring empathy to her character.

    Story falls tooooooooo flat , to many loose ends, the characters jumping in - to say - - im fooling you. No essence in their act.

    Please keep away from this. I like to thank the director only for one reason ...for keeping it just for little over two hours.
