Udal

Udal: This movie is a different experience when comparing with other malayalam thrillers. A technically rich edge-of-the-seat-thriller after a long time.

DOP, BGM and sound design are the major highlights.

Career best performances from Indrans, Durga and Dhyan takes this movie to another level. Writer-director Ratheesh Regunathan sets the benchmark high with his debut movie. Felt like watching a Korean violence thriller.

The movie is good in first half and bad in second half. The story was very good in first up and it build up nice tension among the characters. The second half ruined everything. They just made indran an action hero and he can defend from 2 strong adults. Lot of injury for indran but he still manages to overpower others. Second half is completely spent on Indran fighting and hitting other. Even kills one with trap.

It would have been an interesting watch had the indran s character used some other means to expose the guilty instead of going full action mode. Some unwanted sx scenes are added. Overall one time watch.

The male actor is not upto the mark at all. The violent scenes are good initially, but become unbelievable towards the end.

Dialogues are bogus towards the end.

Indrans stands out with his acting , as usual.

Watch this one for Indrans.

In the dead of night, a man is physically tortured by his exasperated daughter-in-law and her beau. Why? Because she is tired of being the homemaker while her spouse works in another city. They have murdered his wife and he is next in line. The man is old, he can't see or hear properly and appears to be vulnerable. Yet he single-handedly fights off his attackers and leaves the audience awestruck. The entire second half is shot in darkness and this is the film's biggest asset. Performances are excellent. The background music is another plus point. Do watch Malayalam film #Udal in cinemas. Rating 4/5.

Such a balanced presentation. Each and every actor's thoughtful and intelligent acting. The unpredictability of each event is disturbingly thrilling. Indrans chettan has just proved his immense talent and skill again. Wonderful movie. Its a strong and bold scripting along with a very wonderful direction. Awesome work.
