Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Dear Roopesh Peethambaran, incompetent actors, a loud background score and ordinary writing ruined your revenge thriller which can boast of an interesting structure. The hero's sidekick, the heroine and the villain were played by unremarkable actors. The background score was so damn annoying. The blatant comedy track and the long and painfully boring scenes which explained every single aspect of the murder and subsequent revenge ruined the film completely. Dulqer Salman was self conscious in many of the scenes but credit to him for choosing a film with such dark subject matter so early in his career. Sreenivasan, Janardhanan and Vinay Fortt were amusing as the trio of police officers who investigate the case. But the rest of the supporting cast was populated by complete nobodies. The scenes where Dulqer's character tried to make it as a music composer served as a distraction. I noticed that the police procedural scenes had a bluish hue to them. I wonder whether you were inspired by Michael Mann. Ultimately, Theevram is just another silly and mediocre middle class revenge fantasy. Regards, Pimpin. (3/10)

One thing I appreciate about this movie is the director's effort of bringing into a new narrative style to the Malayalam industry. The first half was superb and when it was nearing the interval even the viewers were sweating due to excitement, anxiety/tension .The scenes that followed up after the interval were quite disappointing indeed. There was much lagging and some of the jokes didn't quite work out as well.Coming to the performances Dulquar has given a splendid one. He is the main highlight of the film. The young actor shows much promise. Meanwhile Vinay Forrt and Sreenivasan are the show stealer's even thought they are not present throughout the film. Anu Mohan is an actor to be looked out for as he delivers his best.So if you are searching for a different movie experience, I recommend this one. Hope this review was helpful. :)

facts - no charters are important the only thing that is important is what's going on in the movie. completely beats some of the old American thrillers given music in the movie at all shots will confuse you with other thoughts you can't predict who or how he did it . was good script. excellent thinking of a young artist and that com-pained with cultural diffusion. what a great movie . everyone who loves movie should watch this movie because this is a unbeatable story that make you only think about the movie for all that time. great quality language used was one of the major plus points and then team work was involved in this movie with all the people who were behind he scene.

I don't know why Salman chose this script which is too obvious. The débutant director tries to be a Tarantino here and fails terribly.While I liked the first part, I did not know the film was in anti- climax. And unlike other non-linear screenplays, here - it just spoiled the broth. Salman is good but I think Sreenivasan overdid it with his laughter. Vinay Forrt is coming up, I would say. Some comedy scenes were worth laughing but in some sequences, you stay baffled whether to laugh or to be serious.The music is good enough for a plot too slimy and the overall performance by cast is good. Newcomers have done well. Direction is amateurish and the stunt scenes were too rookie without precision. Why I gave it 6/10 is its thriller sequences which makes us think and some good acting by the cast.Bottom Line: Theevram is a very predictable movie and you must not expect anything NEW from this. An average weekend watch maybe, once the DVD arrives.Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YESLanguage: No | Sex: No | Nudity: Mild | Alcohol: No | Smoking: No
