Review: This is the debut film of the Director duos Akhil Paul and Anas Khan. This film is a seat edged thriller with an interesting storyline. This is a good crime thriller movie. The casting is perfect.
Police officer ACP Rithika Xavier (Mamta Mohandas) is assigned kidnapping and murder case of little girls in Trivendrum. She requests for a forensic team. Samuel John Kattookkaaran (Tovino Thomas) and shikha (Reba Monika John) are assigned are the forensic officers assigned for the case. Samuel happens to be the younger brother of Rithika’s EX-husband Xavier John Kattookkaaran (Saiju Kurup). The couple broke up after one of their twin daughters goes missing in one exhibition. The surviving daughter consults a psychologist Dr. Alphonse Kurian (Giju John). How the forensic team helps Rithika and solves the murders is the rest of the story. The story has many twists and turns which keep the audience grip to their seats and keep guessing the killer.
The movie narrates a story based on forensic investigation to find out the psychopath behind the serial killings of the children.
Tovino Thomas and Reba Monika are amazing in their power packed performance as forensic experts. Mamta Mohandas looks daring and dashing in her role as ACP Rithika. The director has tried to capture and balance both emotional side and the authoritative side in the character of Rithika which Mamta Mohandas has performed excellently. The supporting actors did their role very well.
Screenplay is such that the forensic evidence has been given more weightage cutting off the regular interrogation scenes which are commonly shown in any crime investigation movies. That way this movie gives the audience something new to watch. The story is about mysterious disappearance of girls which the forensic team intervenes and solves using forensic investigation techniques. The direction seems to improve as the movie proceeds. Cinematography goes smoothly with the narration. Editing is good. Action scenes are good. No much scope for romance and the narration goes on sticking too the subject and storyline. Back ground score is apt and goes with the script.
the movie is crime thriller movie with importance given to forensic investigation methods like DNA profiling, finger-prints and other methods. This film is definitely another good thriller worth watching.
