Unmadham

“Kiran Das's 'Unmadham' is a solid thriller, a supernatural whodunit that keeps crossing the lines between the real and the surreal.”

“'Unmadham' successfully combines crime investigation, personal drama, and supernatural elements, leaving the audience to interpret its ambiguous nature until the very end.”

“Despite chaotic second half, Kunchacko-Shahi deliver novel police drama”

“Kunchacko Boban's mystery crime thriller, written by Shahi Kabir and directed by debutant Kiran Das, sets up a strong premise but gets lost in direction in all the chaos towards the end.”

“Just when I thought Shahi Kabir couldn't impress us with yet another police story, he has proven me wrong, underscoring that there's enough behind the khaki that's unexplored.”

“Although Unmadham goes beyond these tropes to traverse newer terrains, the film is still short of being consistently engaging, largely because of the writing choices.”

“Unmadham gets off to an intriguing start with a compelling protagonist and an atmospheric premise, but its disjointed writing and implausible latter half undermine its psychological mystery. What begins as an intriguing psychological mystery eventually falters because of superficial storytelling and an unconvincing resolution.”

“A gripping psychological setup and Kunchacko Boban's superb performance are undone by a disappointingly ordinary final act in Unmadham. The film begins with promise, the middle section completely grabs your attention, only to leave you cold with an utterly underwhelming third act.”

“Unmadham is an uneven thriller that is lifted by the performances of Lijomol Jose and Kunchacko Boban, though the film struggles to maintain consistent narrative tension throughout.”

“A complex story about writer's block, stuck in a shoddy investigation drama.”

“Kabir, who is usually on a sure footing, struggles to maintain balance between different genres in Unmadham. The mixing of crime with psychological and supernatural elements works wonders in certain portions. But it also comes across as convenient for the writer in some difficult phases.”
