I watched The Kerala story today. I am writing this review as per my POV you are welcome to have different opinions. There are many things that we are not aware of but that doesn't mean it is not happening. The Kerala story is about such events which covers conversions happening in kerala which may lead kerala to become a islamic state in coming years. The movie does a good job in raising awareness about such gruesome incidents. It helps us to understand underlying reasons behind such issues and bravely sheds light on ISIS recruitment and how women are used as sex slaves not only from our "God's own country" Kerala but also from other parts of countries. The movie exemplifies the methods used by groups to provoke or manipulate in believing or enforcing their way of life on targeted individuals and how foreign groups are involved. No doubt it has a lot of potential to influence the audience in a negative way. I like the fact that the film didn't glorify the horrors instead it offers a discussion full of facts and critical exploration of the subject. Despite being such a serious matter, movie didn't loose it's grip over the intense storytelling. Coming to the performances the cast does a commendable job. I can't begin to imagine sturggles of director to bring out such sensitive topic in front of the whole world.

Coen brothers have done some tremendous job with their creation. Fine choices of cast who completely stood out their characters. Even-paced I would say. Keeps you on hook.
