L2: Empuraan
2025 · Ottplay
Prithviraj's Lucifer follow-up is ambitious but heavy-handed. The stakes are higher this time, as compared to Lucifer, but the film struggles with its execution.
Ponman
2025 · Ottplay
With strong performances by Basil Joseph, Lijomol, and Sajin Gopu, the film focuses on resilience in adversity.
Maranamass
2025 · Ottplay
Basil Joseph's dark comedy is a bumpy but entertaining ride. What drives the Basil Joseph-starrer home is that the makers use both situational and dialogue humour effectively.
Thudarum
2025 · Ottplay
When the Mohanlal-starrer lands in the suspense thriller territory, there's no holding back. Tharun Moorthy's crafty, gripping thriller lets Mohanlal revel in his complete actor avatar.
Marco
2024 · Ottplay
Marco is the closest Malayalam film to a Prashanth Neel movie, not in terms of scale or story, but style. Unni Mukundan's raging portrayal fuels this brutal, no-holds-barred revenge thriller.
Bramayugam
2024 · Ottplay
The film starring Mammootty, Arjun Ashokan and Sidharth Bharathan weaves an engaging tale of power politics, using the dark magic of cinema to create a compelling narrative that transcends the survival thriller genre.
Pani
2024 · Ottplay
Joju George's directorial debut is especially buoyed by a second half that is intense and thrilling, with the duo outwitting their adversaries in a relentless revenge drama.
Malayalee from India
2024 · Ottplay · May 2024
Just like his previous outing Jana Gana Mana, Dijo Jose Antony hooks the audience with melodramatic sequences to deliver a timely message wrapped in humour and entertainment.
Manjummel Boys
2024 · Ottplay · Feb 2024
An earnest thriller that relies on emotions to carry it. Chidambaram hasn't tried to overdramatise Manjummel Boys for the sake of entertainment and has kept it mostly true to the story.
Ayalaan
2024 · Ottplay · Jan 2024
Ayalaan is an engaging children's sci-fi movie that soars thanks to its impressive VFX and fun storytelling, with director R Ravikumar dialing up the pace effectively despite a predictable opening half.
