This is the kind of film which makes when you think that the director just wants to overkill and make a film for the sake of aesthetic buffoonery and pop culture references. It is funny to see the 9 plus star ratings and there is no way these scores are genuine. Dam sure, this title really shows how the ratings game is played by the PR teams and studio. Please don't fall for the high rating regardless of the director previous outings. Unfortunately, this is so bad than Thinkalazcha Nishchayam and remains a decent attempt, a little messy and dotted with acting. Another film that was average is Nivin Pauly's "Kanakam Kaamini Kalaham"and "1744 White Alto" is even worse in terms of comedy, the gags are not organic and it frequently adds to the film's feel of being forced.
It would be better if the director paid more attention to the characters, acting, pacing, mainly the dialogues and not to the amount of being a Dan Kwan, Gen Sekiguchi, Jeremy Saulnier, Guy Ritchie, Xavier Dolan, Quentin Dupieux, Martin McDonagh, Zach Braff, Sam Raimi, Wes Anderson, Jim Jarmusch, Coenessque Wannabe. Even the mediocre cast isn't enough to rescue the floundering except the lead. The film is meticulosky crafted staging-wise but it's nearly as pretentious and an overkill as the palattes looks like it done just to be a ripoff like a trash on treadmills.
To summarize, the film manages to subvert the malayalam cinema conventions with more flaws of its own. Its attempts to position the absurdity, social commentary as a kind of existential feels like a misfire. The tone of the film oscillates too indecisively between black comedy and drama, unfortunately it does go beyond buffoonery, despite a very few scenes.
