A beginning of an epilogue, birth of a western classic segment in south India !

What If Quentin Tarantino made an Indian movie ? Yes. That's exactly what "Malaikottai Valiban" is on screen.

Brilliantly woven piece, the movie begins where you think it ends. The amazing plot twist will keep you in edge of the seat. LJP's story telling is always unique, the Malaikottai Valiban is like a video game, where you finish one lever after other each one more daunting than the previous and at the end one final big mission which looks impossible with an absolute plot twist.

The movie is filled with wide angle shots and landscapes, Madhu Neelakandan's cinematography is really brilliant. I loved it personally.

It's not a movie for Mohan Lal's fan, it won't have extravagant intro, it's a movie made according to what the story really wants and that makes the movie absolutely a masterpiece.

Danish Sait will bag multiple awards for his role for sure, and I have no doubt it. You can see a director's real talent when you see Danish acting in this movie.

Overall this movie is an art of Indian cinema, LJP has done it again.
