A well-intentioned revenge drama....!

Amala paul has shown some matured and responsible act in potraying a strong women of substance,though struggling with frustration,fear& clueless and emotional at times doesn't let down courage and determination against the odds,A notable flick to rejoice in her career... Hakkim Shah does a neat job holds a griping and balanced act in lending a valuable support to the flick... Manju pillai and chemban Jose do weave a strong web of communist act and hatred against the odd of the high society crimes The climax was bit surprising and convincing makes sure the screenplay and plot does fall in a safe ground of women empowerment.

Worth a watch for winning story against sexual assault!

Story revolves around a physical education teacher going through sexual assault by students of major age and taking revenge against them. Though screenplay n execution isn't that great yet there's a captivating storyline. We might have come through several similar stories before, yet every sexual assault n the way that lady victim handles is unique. Climax could have been more better n realistic. However, for a winning climax story, my ratings 6/10!

Don't trust any reviews from "name followed by 4 numbers" eg, jaykumar2269.

Don't trust any reviews from "name followed by 4 numbers" eg, jaykumar2269. They have been paid to give this movie 10/10, using dummy accounts. Futile attempt to raise the rating.

Although the makers did seem to be well intentioned with the way they treated the subject with the sensitivity it deserved, the weak writing fails to weave a memorable revenge drama out of its stale premise, and the shallow characters only manage to weigh down the already uninspired script.

The Teacher's good intentions and promising beginning is overridden by its uninspired writing and stark differences in tone, which become too stark to ignore as the film progresses. Shallow and one dimensional characters also weigh down the already watered down script.

Chumma kallu pole irunnu kanan pattiya padam

It didn't work for me as a movie with an impactful social commentry Or as a commercial movie capitalizing on a socially relevant concept and the bland writing and screenplay made it a not so interesting watch.

The subplots were annoying, with powerful characters being introduced,which felt like cameos and there just to move the plot points or to help the lead character in some way.

When the film put the main plot to rest many a times to allow the subplot to breathe, it always backfired and felt pointless as it rarely connected back to the main plot in a satisfying way.

I liked the chaotic action sequence in the end with a lot of wood being broken but massifying lessened the effect of the serious tone the movie was travelling through and thus the revenge aspect too didn't create any noticeable impact.

Great direction

Great direction,bgm,acting etc. Truly this movie is treat not just for movie.but for those who love cinema and content.this movie is enough to make u glued to screen. Vera level performance. And by the way I am a North Indian who believes to praise good cinema,What else required A perfect 10 star rated film Well done a standing applause to team this movie will reach millions of people and yet people will look as first option in OTT to watch movie,I'LL KEEP MY REVIEW SHORT AND CLEAR. Bollywood. Please learn from south Indian film industry on how to make films on biography. In other words, learn how to make movies from them.

Two hours if my life I will never get back!

Is this a story of revenge? Is this a story of hope? Is this a story of woman empowerment? Is this a story of misogyny? I will never know because the movie is confused, the script is confused. There are so many sub stories just to.prove a point that the actual problem lacks any kind of depth. We do not feel the pain of the main character, we barely even get a sense of what she is going through.

Acting is sub par, background score is lacking any kind of depth. This movie falters in every single department. Gives the message that police and judiciary are unavailable and issues should be dealt with at a personal level. I wasted 2 hours, you please don't.

Never consider this a movie.

Not worth to watch even to pass our time. Pls work on scripts before taking such flims.

Story doesn't have any idea about where it is heading towards.

Also while searching for review it shows that it is thriller flim don't know what thrill is there in it.

Disappointed with such nonsense stories.

Complete hit and miss

The film tried to be something else but turned out something else at the end. The plot and characters were developed till the last 15 mins. But everything went to drain and unrealistic screenplay came to the front. The climax may have brought some adrenaline rush but not that impactful what the movie has planned to be. Overall a great effort but climax has ruined it all.

Amala Paul did her best to portray the character to perfection. The confusion, disgust, and helplessness were well portrayed. Ultimately the screenplay went Hayward with new character being introduced from nowhere just to put sense into the climax. But as I said, it was forcefully done and not convincing.

Direction is Masterclass

Sujith, Devika's husband, initially lashes out when she tells him of the sexual assault, even accusing her of causing it. There is, what feels like, redemption for the character who realises his mistake and wants to set things right, but the damage has been done to the relationship. Devika is unforgiving when he begs for a second chance. The climax denies him redemption when we realise that the 'acceptance' and 'support' were conditional to her getting an abortion. Amala Paul shows flashes of maturing as an actor, but the film, unfortunately, demands only versions of three emotions - anger, disgust, and grief - in a loop. It is disturbing that the characters believe they have no hope of justice, but take the law into their hands.

Amazing

The Teacher is not easy to watch, films about sexual violence seldom are. What is unsettling is that the perpetrators are barely out of school, and the victim/survivor is a teacher they meet during an inter-school competition. Even more disturbing is their nonchalance about the assault, which they have recorded. Her allies include her mother-in-law Patton Kalyani, a pan-chewing, beedi-puffing Communist party activist essayed brilliantly by Manju Pillai. Kalyani is appalled that her son cannot understand the severity of the crime and the trauma Devika has undergone. Manju Pillai could have been utilised more, but then it is Devika's story.

Don't miss

I never expected Athiran director to do such a film. It really surprised me that Teacher was directed by the Athiran Director. I just like his unique style of storytelling. Its unpredictable. Teacher is a good film. Don't miss.,The song Kayalum Kandalum is on loop in my playlist. Love the visuals. The film is a must watch for those who likes thrillers.,Never expected a twist like that in the end. Remarkable....the tale end is even better! Don't miss this film.,One of my favourite films of 2022. This was a surprise from Amala Paul and the director of Athiran. A very different film, with a different kind of storytelling.,,,,,,,
