Narivetta is an Malayalam-language political drama film directed by Anuraj Manohar and written by Abin Joseph based on 2003 Muthanga Incident .The film stars Tovino Thomas, Suraj Venjaramoodu and Cheran in his Malayalam debut. It is produced by Tippushan and Shiyas Hassan under the banner of Indian Cinema Company.
A daring must-watch attempt that vividly brings the harrowing ‘Muthanga’ incident to life with brutal visualization. Director Anuraj Manohar takes his time to set up the situation in the first hour, but once on track, he executes it brilliantly. Notably, he avoids delving into government politics and instead focuses on the police perspective, which pays off nicely.
Tovino Thomas delivers another daring performance, meeting the story’s demands perfectly. The supporting cast, including Cheran and Suraj Venjaramood, shines with fantastic performances. Phoenix Prabhu’s action in the pre-climax scenes stands out, elevated by Vijay’s spellbinding camera work.
Jakes Bejoy’s score is another highlight, delivering a terrific work reminiscent of ‘Thudarum.’ He truly is the second hero of the movie, adding depth and emotion to the narrative. Overall, the film is emotionally intense and horrific, making it a gripping thriller that shouldn’t be missed.”
Bottomline
A daring must watch attempt that brings the harrowing ‘Muthanga’ incident to life with brutal visualization.The gripping narration,coupled with impressive technical work and Jakes Bejoy’s score, elevates the film. Emotionally intense and horrific!!
