Kudos to the team for shedding light on a dark chapter in history - the Kerala government's and police's brutal treatment of tribal groups. The film is well-crafted, with impressive cinematography and background score, making for a engaging viewing experience. However, the narrative's impact is somewhat diminished by the choice of central character. By not making the protagonist a member of the affected tribal group, the film misses an opportunity to authentically portray the struggles and injustices faced by the victims.
The casting is mostly fine, with Arya standing out, but Tovino and Cheran's performances feel artificial. The movie's pacing is also marred by unnecessary subplots, including a cringe-worthy love story and family drama. These scenes waste valuable screen time that could have been used to delve deeper into the core theme, diluting the seriousness of the central plot.
Despite these flaws, the movie is well-intentioned and tackles a significant subject. With some tweaks and a better script it could have been even more effective in conveying the gravity of the issue. The film's good intentions and technical proficiency make it worth watching, but it's clear that a more nuanced approach would have elevated the narrative. Overall, it's a commendable effort that falls short of its full potential due to some questionable creative choices.

This film had all the ingredients for a gripping narrative, but unfortunately, it diddn't quite live up to its potential. The story is intense and engaging, but the execution fell short due to a weak script that failed to make a lasting impact.
The making of the film was passable, with decent cinematography and a forgettable background score. The acting was average, with none of the performances standing out as particularly memorable. The dialogue felt forced and unnatural..
Better casting and direction could have elevated the film, but as it stands, it feels like a missed opportunity. The film had moments of tension and suspense, but they weren't enough to make up for its overall lack of impact. With some further development and refinement, this could have been a truly memorable film.
The film's intense story was let down by its poor script, average acting, and lackluster direction. While it had some redeeming qualities, it ultimately fell short of expectations. Maybe with a better cast and direction, the outcome would have been different. Nonetheless, it's still worth watching for fans of the genre, but it won't be remembered as a classic.
The movie had potential, but it ultimately fell flat due to various shortcomings. Despite the eintense storyline, the poor script and average performances held it back from reaching its full potential. With some improvements, this film could have been a real standout, but as it is, it's a forgettable entry in an otherwise crowded field.

This film's anticipation, fueled by the director's previous work and pre-release buzz, was short-lived. The movie feels like a casual tribute to Mohanlal's legacy, with a loose script that fails to deliver. The opening sequence, featuring vintage photos and nostalgic dialogues, comes across as forced and lacks impact. The dialogues are often stilted, and Shobhana's performance is unconvincing. Many characters enter and exit without development, leaving them feeling one-dimensional. The plot felt like borrowed from "Drishyam," with several scenes feeling like retreads. Overall, the film's lackluster storytelling and haphazard approach result in a disappointing experience.
