    Solid Half

    If you are too religious stay away from this one.. Not every ones cup of tea.. Solid first half. Unconvincing second half and cliched climax let down the movie.... Fahad and his expressive eyes rules the movie

    Brave Attempt

    Anwar Rasheed's Trance written by Vincent Vadakkan tears apart the evalengical centers which is a solid first half. In the second half writer lost the track and movie starts wobbling.

    In the days of multiple trailers and teasers the trance didn't reveal much. Well who wants their movie to run into controversies. Then the censorship delays. Fortunately director didn't budge for cuts and went to Mumbai for recertification from Trivandrum.

    Trance - A honest attempt.

    What a film ! Kudos to the team.

    I was so excited for this movie and after all the wait I seen it and pretty much impressed. I mean Anwar Rasheed just nailed it and Fahad fazil... What an actor man. The energy of his in this movie is just amazing. Amal neerad's cinematography it's another backbone of this movie. All the other supporting characters played by other actors were great, they done their job neat and clear in my opinion. Music was another great piece of work in this movie and offcourse the editing... Every single cut has its own style. Overall I loved. It's a must watch theatre experience.

    Top notch Acting, no words to describe. Movie shows the what's happening in the name of god.

    I Watched the movie in Amazon prime. Movie starts good and engaging till the first half. Trance failed in connecting the dots and summing up the storylines it started. It almost felt like that the second half of the film was rushed, although that is not the case.

    Fahad fasil astonished the viewers with this extraordinary acting as Viju in the film, lived the character to the fullest and deserve all the praise for his extraordinary acting. He deserves Oscar.

    The leading lady, Nazriya Nazim, is felt like an unneeded addition to an already spectacular cast. Vinayakan were all well utilised although having very limited screen time. Gowtham Menon did good. Let it be Chemban Vinod, Dileesh Pothan, Joju George, Soubin Shahir and many others with their role is brilliant.

    Trance clearly show the current status of the society. The money mindness of people and people's usage of religion as a business opportunity. It is also as a eye opener for people who blindly believe in religious treatment for spiritual motivation and heal power. Must watchable film.

    A BANG on society's current DRUG

    The movie deserves a great applause as a whole. This seems the very first attempt in Malayalam film industry and very proud and daring challenge taken up by Anwar Rashid and his team. .

    The religious addiction we have and growing when the science and technology is there to solve health realted issues, we still are being blindfolded with the so called religious Man God is very worrying. And the movie has just helped in how to perceive such MAN GODs we have in every religion is one best thing the movie did. .

    For that the Director himself proved that he has chosen right actors and especially Fahad Fasil as the lead. He's something else when his character shifts and clearly standout from every other roles he had done in the past. .

    The BGM by Sushin and Jackson Vijayan helped the movie a lot in maintaining the mood of trance along with expertised Cinematography from Amal Neerad. .

    Watch it if you want to see where our society IS and where are we ourselves as an individual. .

    The only problem with the movie lies in the second half when several characters come and how to deal with each of them. Otherwise. It is just Worth watching.
