First of all the first have no connection with second half. The horror scene has no effect, the way horror is represents is in sold way(not too old) .The storyline is predictable,I think is pretty much messed up.camera is execellent and background music is also good.the revenge in the story is completely meaning less.
Positive
1) camera is excellent
2)background music
3)acting
4)cast
Negative
1)over drama
2)predictable story
3)horror scene are not good
4)most of the acting is done by child actor(she nailed it)
5)manji varrior is like a gest in this filim
I can't decide if this flick is horror or thriller, it was blended around those two, felt it would have been better if they were stuck to one rather experimenting both. Even though the story was slightly different from the typical plots we see in movies, there was nothing special.
The narration was predictable and the twists and turns didn't work for me. Most of the characters including the protagonist couldn't bring much impact on the screen, except for the outstanding young girl. After all Mammootty is a legendary actor who could have done wonders, but in this film he couldn't do much.
Technically the film was remarkable in terms of cinematography and music. The only place where you can at least get the best of this movie is by seeing in a theater and no other place, I'm pretty sure it can't be enjoyed watching elsewhere and this is the high time we all support our industry so that we can get to see more good films hopefully.

I am a Telugu speaking person (not the target audience). The highest positive thing is there is no lag in the movie and it is very crisp. That's the reason one can easily give it a try and maybe watch the movie till the end. The highest negative thing would be that there is no wow factor in the movie. Even though there are few potential wow factors, the makers did not properly communicated them. The main lead actor suits the character but for some reason I fell this is not tailormade for him. Overall, onetime watchable for sure if you love crime investigation/ horror/ dark movies.
Outstanding first half followed by cliché second half. Bgm at its top notch level🔥. International level quality. Interval portion was brilliant. Overall an average experience for me. If you can spent time and money, go for an multiplex theatre for better experience.
