4.0
Joju George is towering as Paulson, but a bloated second act and old-school treatment keeps it from being the complete package.

Film review
3.0Shaji Kailas delivers familiar mass moments, but Varavu never rises above its dated revenge formula. Despite stylish action and a few engaging moments, the revenge drama lacks emotional weight and logical storytelling to leave a lasting impact.
