The visuals were good. People who liked KGF, KGF 2, Salaar will all like the world setting. People who watched Lucifer and expected a pure malayali padam, that was wrong. When I say at the theater I had 45 year old aunties sitting behind me and complaining how sleepy they are watching it, smh ๐ญ. I agree the plot is weak and story needs work, but to put it that low is wrong. By malayalam visual standards, it's amazing. I did read posts on Reddit and I agree to a statement, there are no emotional attachments I feel to the characters. There are many other Malayalam movies which made me feel good after watching it, but this it was purely political and just left me not good nor bad, more like "ok".
Spoiler, even when one of the main character was killed, meh who cares, I didn't feel s**t. In the first part of the movie they had some value.
So story and plot vise, it's weak. Visuals and goosebumps it's good (not exceptional and hyped like you might have thought, but to a Malayalam industry action movies it's a step up showing this industry can make pan Indian movies) (at least better than current marvel movies ๐ญ) Music and bgm was ok, going with the flow of the scenes.
I read a Reddit post that he liked Jailer bgm than this. Thinking about it I feel the same
Now now, Jailer 2 is in works, will see about how that lasts, so does KGF 3, Salaar 2
Oh yea, I felt like KGF 2 was good as KGF or better (idk I don't remember)
But here, I know there are three groups
One, people who felt the movie boring and.. these woman who went to the movie thinking it's a family mohanlal movie. Bro, the r*pe scene, I had a 7-8 year old sitting next to me and watching
Two, people who understand the movie had flaws and knows there are good moments too.
Three, die hard fans who won't back down.
Pick your poison ๐

Rating: 7.5/10 (I don't want to do out of 5 because am torn between 3.5 and 4, 3.5 feels low to me, but 7.5 speaks average padam)
