Garudan Movie Review Rating:
Star Cast: Suresh Gopi as Dcp Harish Madhav Ips, Biju Menon as Nishanth Kumar, Siddique as Adv. Bharathan Pillai, Jagadish as Salam Kyperi, Abhirami as Sreedevi
Director: Arun Varma
Garudan Movie Review Out ( Photo Credit – IMDb )
What’s Good: Director Arun Varma’s debut impresses with a swift narrative and a strategic placement of lead actors. Suresh Gopi delivers a no-nonsense portrayal, complemented by Biju Menon’s nuanced performance as Nishanth. Jagadish stands out with a compelling performance, adding depth to the supporting cast. The film successfully generates thrills without resorting to graphic visuals, thanks to Jakes Bejoy’s discerning music.
What’s Bad: While the screenplay unfolds seamlessly, the second half feels rushed, impacting the climax. The film, at times, leans on predictable moments due to Suresh Gopi’s established cop image, potentially diminishing script unpredictability. Cinematographer Ajay David Kachappilly’s excessive use of colors becomes distracting,...

Malayalam superstar Suresh Gopi is looking incredibly intense, in the trailer for his upcoming film ‘Garudan’. A crime-thriller-drama film with a touch of psychological horror, Suresh Gopi is essaying the role of a man who won’t rest until he finds justice.
In ‘Garudan’, Suresh Gopi plays the role of Commandant Harish Madhavan who is a senior officer of the Kerala Armed Police.
Actor Biju Menon on the other hand essays the role of a college professor called Nishant, who now finds himself unwittingly involved in a complex legal problem.
A grounded and rather rooted thriller, the trailer boasts very high production value while at the same time not appearing over-the-top, in a darker and more experimental filmmaking style.

MollywoodThe seeds to redefine codes of morality in Malayalam cinema were sowed in some of the more recent films, where protagonists in shades of grey manage to go scot-free or just suffer unconventional punishments.*Spoilers ahead Traditionally, the protagonists of most Indian films come in different shades of white. They tend to be morally upright, the films almost always on the ‘right’ side of morality. The established template is “the good people live happily ever after”, the corollary being that the ‘bad people’ will meet a bad end — if they do not die by the end of the film, they will at least suffer. For decades, storytellers in India have stuck to this template and fed it to the conscience of the viewing public. This has resulted in countless films where the hero is the ‘good guy’, who does everything by the rules and lives happily in the end. The...

ReviewBiju Menon, Padmapriya, Nimisha Sajayan and Roshan Mathew are wonderful in the film, which loses some appeal due to its storytelling.CrisFrom the top of a 250-metre high lighthouse on the beach, all of a little town in South Kerala could be seen, says the narrator of Oru Thekkan Thallu Case. Inside the tower then, on cue, appears the cartoon figure of Biju Menon. A nice little animation introduces the characters of the town in the titles before the film opens. The situation is made clear in a few scenes — Biju Menon is Amminipilla, a sort of hero figure in the town whom no one wants to mess with. A gang of five young men are pitted against him for many reasons. The film, based on a short story by Gr Indugopan, revolves around this rivalry, set against a beautiful rustic background, but lacking in storytelling quality. It is director Sreejith N’s first film.
