Since Odiyan was most anticipated mallu movie, i had done advance booking. Was disappointed to see ngative reviews floating in internet Friday morning itself. So, i had less expectationsabout the movie. To be frank, a good movie. With certain flaws in timings and editing. I would give a 4.5/5 for acting and story. But a 2.5/5 for direction and wrong marketing. So, overall 3.5/5. The concept of odiyan and the background study of odiyan was perfectly shown. I feel there was no need of two action scenes.
