Sorry to say, the film lacked story and script. First half was not necessary, second part has no thrill.

This was my most awaited movie of the Christmas season. I was hoping that it is not another Double Barrell.

Unfortunately, it is another Double Barrel meets Parava meets Angamaly Diaries. The film does not work at all. Imagine a heist movie where the heist itself isn't important but the story of a place and it's characters are. But the place and characters are nothing great. The dialogs are awful.

But I'm certain about one thing. Shane Nigam is a huge future legend. What a talent. He really lights up the screen when he's on. Does a great job in action scenes. Reminds me of a young Mohanlal.

Boring movie, waste of time watching this movie.....

Such a bore .I think the writers didn't have a clue about they should write. Such a jumbled film , not worth it .

No reason for the three hour long running time. Half of the running time is spend on showing random scenes which do not add up to anything. Too many characters and subplots which are insignificant. Newcomers are a pain to watch. They can't act. It has a convoluted plot which drags on and on in many places.

Dialogues are unconventional but lack clarity. Half of the time I was wondering 'what are they talking about, whom are they talking about?'

Shane and Joju are a pleasure to watch. Joju's minute expressions are quite good. He is one of the best actors to do character roles. Heroine was okay, but ultimately was not needed in the movie at all. Some guys acting well and the others acting very bad left me with a messed up feeling. I was wishing for the scenes with the newcomers to get over as soon as possible.

Background music was good, fight scenes were good, camera work was good.

It has a good story, but the plot made it a mess.

I'll give it a 4/10. Gave 1 only to balance the rating. Seems like so many fake reviews are in here.

Booooooaaarrrrring... Don't watch even though you have nothing to do...

The only reason I'm giving it an extra half star is because of Rex Vijayan's score. The storyline is a convoluted mess with too many inconsequential characters. A couple of new talents (in the cast) seem fine, but the rest either awkwardly ham it up or are terrible. The writing, for a movie where the location is a character of its own, lacks finesse. The dialogues are often ridiculously condescending. Mattanchery & Fort Kochi looked much better in Soubin Shahir's Parava, both from storyline and aesthetic standpoints. Even stupendous actors like Shane and Joju put up half-hearted efforts. Himika Bose looks pretty, but like 99% of the cast, plays an inconsequential character who shows up intermittently. What was Soubin, Alencier, Captain Raju, and Atul Kulkarni doing in this movie? At 2 hours and 55 minutes, Valiyaperunnal is a total borefest.

Im from Cochin. And Iliked the movie a lot. I am a great fan of Shane. He is a really good actor seriously. Nice dance movements too.

What was the movie trying to tell, i doubt even the makers had any clue what they were trying. The story is a jumbled mess,the dialouges are weak, acting by some are down right irritating, only better performance is by shane nigam who continues his usual type dialogue delivery and style( just like every other movie he does, the same kochi accent every movie!). I am sure he has a future. This film is not worth your time.

Amazing movie. All characters are perfect; Shane Rocks; First half was bit confusing however everything make sense at the end; Goood job.

Good experiment from the team. Should be appreciated. Its just a thriller movie.

The story is somewhat confusing. But the cinematographer and editor have done their job successfully. Many debutant actors are there but they are all good in acting skill. The locations and charactors are so realistic.

I think the scenario is of dark mode. These kind of movies are rare in Malayalam. will face difficulties to understand the story thread. Expected a normal new-gen movie. But its something different.

This is the 6th movie I'm watching in Malayalam. I had a bad impression on South Indian movies, since I have only watched Telugu movies. But Malayalam is somewhat different from those stupid movies. Technically this movie is so brilliant. Really good actors and dancers. Have seen that hero in another movie before. He is a brilliant actor.

Don't know much about the technical side. However its a good movie. Nice songs and all. That folk song was different. One song is sung by actress Srinda if I'm not wrong. Good work.

The theme is so good and somewhat difficult to understand since we are not used to such scenario in Malayalam. But, can say that it was a good start and good attempt overall. We can expect movies comes under this genre, in future. Malayalam movies are getting better everyday.

Not so extra ordinary. But worth watching. Good cinematography and editing.

Had no idea about the story from the first half. But the scenes were good. I liked that person's villain role. Its somewhat lagging. However it is watchable. Felt like they depicted the exact slums of Cochin and Mattancheri.

I dont understand Malayalam well. Still watch Mallu movies. I think the slang used in this movie is something different. I liked the action sequences. The songs are also little bit different. I felt so.

Liked Shane's acting and dancing skill. The actress is also a perfect match for him. Other charactors also did a good job. Story line is little bit difficult, but not boring.

Very dark kind of movie. We have only few Malayalam movies like this. Expected violence and all. But no such scenes were there. Each and every character has their own style. I liked it in that way.

It is a good movie. Didnt understand completely may be bcz of the slang used. Very good songs.

The movie is not that extra ordinary. But worth watching. Choreography is amazing and all dancers are talented. Especially shane nigam.

Amazing presentation of a simple story. Dialogues and scenes were unique compared to other recent movies. Hero is a highly talented person. don't know why he is not getting many opportunities in the industry. Very natural acting skill and outstanding dance performance. Don't know if the story is based on a true incident or not. But the way they narrated the story and the characters involved are so realistic. Appreciate these kind of new experiments, as a potential viewer.

I felt like its an ok-ok movie. The running time is long. They could have cut shot few unnecessary scenes. Apart from that, its ok. Lot of new faces are there which creates confusion. But everyone acted well.
