One of jeethu josephs strongest field is investigative suspense thriller. He has made a few good movies and a few bad movies but none of his investigative suspense thriller movies are bad. This one is a really good movie. The strongest point is it's story and writing. I love jeethu Joseph as a writer. He knows how to handle exposition in a amazing way in his suspense thriller movies. The writing is so good as usual in this movie also. Asif ali gave a decent performance. I liked the way his character was treated (gave me a kind of nightcrawler vibes). The background music in few places were nice. The cinematography was decent, liked the way they used dolly zoom in a few places.
Jeethu Joseph usually waves away criticism regarding his making style. His previous movie Drishyam 2 got a lot of praises but a few criticism regarding it's making style. Personaly i think Drishyam 2 is a masterpiece. Even though the movie had very simple treatment, the writing just shines like a star, so the making style never really bothered me. But in this movie it becomes very evident. There needs to be a little upgrading in the making style. So many movies with simple story and basic screenplay just gets enhanced into a nice movie experience with its making style. This movie has a strong base but the movie somehow dosent feel utilised to it's full potential.
