A good political movie

This was a good political movie. The movie effectively tries to show how politicians interfere in our life if we don't intrrfere in politics. The technical department does a amazing job. The set design done in this movie is marvelous. The place they show as nivin paulys house, goes through a lot of changes in this movie. The major conflicts starts and ends in nivin paulys house. The way they show the changes of the house was so good and convincing. So a huge shoutout to all thoes who did the set design. The cinematography is superb. The landscapes, the crowd all was nicely shot. The geography itself becomes a very important character. Nivin pauly, shammi thilagan, remya suresh all give a nice performance. As a debut director, judging from this movie, I have a lot of hope in liju krishna. I am really looking forward to his next project.The issue with the movie is some parts of it's writing. Especially the second half, the movie takes a lot of time to establish nivin paulys characters arc and that felt a lot distracting from the main plot and both the plots don't feel blended organically. I feel it would have been nice if they would have explored more on how the political parties take advantage on poor farmers and exploit the nature. That would have made the climax much more satisfactory. They take their time with the setup. Could have reduced that. Aditi balan was so underused, feels bad to see such talented actress barely doing anything.

Mass & class with Theatrical Experience

An intense drama, the theme is a great eye-opener for common people with rooted story telling ! Hat's off to Liju Krishna (not considering the legal battle in his personal life) and Mind Blowing BGM from Govind Vasantha1. Why Nivin Pauly isn't recognised at a pan Indian level ?2. Topics covered in my mind (High-speed survey stone, twenty-twenty, quarry mafia, tree-felling scam, corporate supporting political leaders, youth of our country, Kannur political rivalry, Religion/culture/ Development based fake politics, Wild life encroachment, Farmers of our country, Land and Ecosystem based politics and Lack of backing for atheletics/sports in our state) while watching this movie.
