I, Nobody

"A sharp social thriller that doesn't quite stick the landing"

"Nissam Basheer's bank heist thriller reunites Prithviraj Sukumaran and Parvathy Thiruvothu after years, but a bloated runtime, a sagging middle act and a mystery that does not justify its length restrict it."

"A terrific first half makes I, Nobody look like a great thriller, until an increasingly muddled second half loses the plot. Despite its technical finesse, I, Nobody loses momentum in an overstuffed second half that struggles to match the promise of its brilliant opening."

"I, Nobody could easily have been 30 minutes shorter. It overstays its welcome, and that keeps it from the greatness it clearly has the ambition for. The promise of a heist thriller with a fresh screenplay treatment is real – the stumble in the last act is what stops it from getting there."

"His screenplay and Nissam Basheer's direction failed to utilise the potential of the storyline and ended up coming up with a lengthy run-of-the-mill & unexciting heist drama. There's nothing intelligent that we find in the screenplay of the film, and what we see is a protagonist who involves himself in never-ending action sequences one after the other."

"Prithviraj [is] stuck in a squandered premise"

"Things are quite taut till the halfway point, with the movie taking us to all the unimaginable directions that Rajeevan's mind can travel to. However, the film becomes quite a different, messed up beast post-interval, and in its final act, I, Nobody fumbles a bit with a contrived redemption arc and closing scenes that leave one wondering what the film really wanted to convey."
