A very finely made Neo-noir Mystery/Thriller movie. It is definitely the cup of tea for investigation thriller geeks. But I wouldn't recommend this to action movie fans because it's can a little slow paced at certain points. But as a passionate enthusiast of Mystery/Thriller/Crime films, I did not feel any sort of boredom.
Tovino really impressed as Sub Inspector Anand Narayanan. The purpose of presenting a young and straightforward police officer as protagonist was executed flawlessly. But the plot seemed a little random. For instance, during investigation, Tovino and his crew keeps grinding and finds evidence leading to the culprit but, it fails to flabbergast the audience inspite of the twist in the end(Joju George's Iratta would tell a different story). But it definitely kept me on the hook. A crime thriller enthusiast who likes to pay attention to details would never say this movie is boring.
If you want to see a well made and nuanced investigation thriller, this is a great choice. I would have gave it 10/10 if it gave me that adrenaline rush which Neru or Kannur Squad did. But due to the way this movie is made, it definitely deserves 8+.
