A Passable Thriller Partly Salvaged by Its Final Act
A slow-burning first half and generic investigation dilute the impact of this crime thriller, redeemed largely by the climactic reveal
When newly recruited Sub-Inspector Vijay Radhakrishnan (Shane Nigam) takes charge at the Kuzhinilam police station, things look all bright and pleasant in the hills. Barring occasional scuffles among locals, the station has no major history of crime, making it an ideal posting for a newcomer to ease into the gritty world of law enforcement. However, it doesn’t take long before Vijay’s worst nightmares come true as a series of gruesome crimes are reported back-to-back in the locality. Three murders and a bank robbery, and Vijay’s efficiency is straightaway in question. He has a point to prove.
