Nayattu (2021) :
Brief Review -
The Third Malayalam Classic of the year after The Great Indian Kitchen and Drishyam 2. Nayattu is not a film but a slap to the dirty system which includes politicians, police, casteism wolves and unfortunately common man too. Nayattu is told as a thriller and it somewhat thrilling too but it's not enough to be called a complete thriller as the genre requires more thrill. But it has got much more than that mainstream thrill to provide you a cinematic experience that will shatter your mind, heart and perspective and maybe you'll start looking at things differently. You need guts to make a film like Nayattu where you fearlessly expose all the dirty secrets of the system and then give a tight slap on common man's face by proving that he is also the part of this system afterall. Yes, we are all part of this absurd system because we are the Voters and we always fall for their tricks without knowing the actual truth behind it. Nayattu is about Three police officers who are on a run for life, escaping the outbreak against them due to the unlawful arrest and torture of a civilian. It brings in a few shades of arrogant yet very much human police officers and their helplessness and how they fail to fight the powerful system who just exactly know how to handle things.l according to their comfort. The film is bounded by realistic surroundings throughout the narrative and it doesn't fear to show ugly side of all the people who are involved in this system. Martin Prakkat has achieved something brilliant of a whole new level with his extraordinary directorial technique as he compiles multiple genres and themes so well together in one narrative. All the actors are superb in their roles. Dialogues are decent but very realistic and maybe that's why they are not that filmy. Overall, Nayattu is Classic Film but more than that it is a miserable realisation of our own mistakes that we can never correct as far as we are living in this society. A MUST SEE!
RATING - 8/10*
