Kannur Squad

Damn bruh nice..I'm not surprised that Ikka won't stop anytime soon It's a combination of slow realistic rat and mouse chase like Rajiv Ravi's Kuttavum Shikshayum (2022) but again has the graph running at a high speed suspense and massy angle like Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru (2017). Specifically it's a great directorial debut by Roby Varghese Raj; I really loved how there were some nicely taken realistic fight sequences. But I believe the car scenes could have been taken better. Anyways, dialogues & the plot points did justice to the overall movie telling. But lot of stereotypical elements like UP village violence & all worked here; but little off ig..idk Must say about the bgm, Sushin Shyam that guy can make any genre music.

Kannur Squad. Investigative Thriller with Top notch performance of Mammootty. Review by M. Siraj The story starts at Kasargod where a serios of murder is taking place, Mammootty as George Martin an undercover officer who is famous for solving cases in heretical ways, took over the case with his team to search of the reason and killers, travelling from Kerala to different states in a rousing investigation genre with a visual treat in different venerations, including Mammootty's staggering performance, cinematography and BGM, produced by Mammootty Kampany directed by Roby Varghese. Director excels in proving the productivity of Mammootty's team of Police officers in the beginning with a short investigation, their inclinations, before tumbling into top gear chase that is at the heart of the film. As the capable team travel through different states to unearth the secrets, they delve into arcane exploration, to uncover a web of conspiracy, director succeeded in taking the audience also along the team with crossed fingers, sincerely wishing the team to succeed when they face dead ends simultaneously the natural feelings, anguish professional struggles and personal problems of normal Police men were vividly explained by simple shots to emphasize Policemen are also normal human beings with catchy dialogues. As the movie highlights the importance of team work, bravery with integrity to face adversity, sometimes it reminds the Tamil Film "Theeran Athikaram ontru" but superb screenplay and visuals with Mammootty's screen presence boosted the movie to another level with striking unseen travel shots. As a hero Mammootty understand his previous experiences, competencies, with that benchmark he measured himself to fit into this role with dedication, not a single minute lag for a never ever before uniqueness in his characterisation, he expresses the inner feeling of the insult and non-co-operation from his superiors with his grinned looks and refusal of order. Even though he has played investigators numerous times, most performances good, his character in Kannur Squad, is exciting to garner viewers, he endeavours to deliver a performance devoid of repetitiveness, the two action scenes at the last quench the appetite of anyone seeking thrills to get goosebumps feeling. Even though there are only 4 officers including Mammootty in the team as a fifth element the Tata Sumo which take them to different cities, is a part of the crime investigation, when it got completely damaged, the team is returning back leaving behind the Tata Sumo, the 4 people look at the vehicle with sadness, their realistic lens of affection is mind-blowing as they lost one of their close companions. The latest technology is amply used with pervasive mobile tower tracking of the suspects, gripping journey with unimagined quandaries they faced keeps the audience glued to their seats. The picture released without any much hype or gigantic promotion activities, but their trust in the screen play, Mammootty's confidence on the new Director, true to life acting of Mammootty, pragmatic back ground music finally gave a pleasing treat to the audience. Kannur Squad. Investigative Thriller with Top notch performance of Mammootty. Review by M. Siraj.

I have been following this movie since its production and have recommended it to many when it was released. Sadly, I couldn't watch it in theaters because it wasn't playing in my area. I watched it when it was released on OTT. The movie is a bit lengthy, and while the production design was great, the screenplay was not up to the mark. I also felt some artificiality in the acting of the supporting actors, which demotivated me from watching it properly. One person who has watched movies like Theeran, and Kuttavum Shikshayum may feel that those movies were better in terms of screenplay when comparing it to Kannur Squad. Arjun Radhakrishnan is an asset for Mollywood and he was amazing throughout. Please don't watch this movie with great expectations, as that's going to disappoint you.

I had high expectations for this film and safe to say this movie really did meet my standards. The plot was original and not cliche at all. The fight scenes were great and did not look fake at all. The movie was so interesting people were on the edge of the seat waiting to see what was going to happen next. Mammotty and his team acted so naturally and we could see all the betrayal, friendships and reconciliation throughout the film. The viewers were misguided so many times throughout the films, there were plot twists were you least expected them. I would have given the film 10 stars but I feel like there were some parts that were left incomplete they weren't major parts most viewers probably don't even notice but we did. I also would have given it to 10 stars if they had given Sushin Shyam more opportunities to show off this music and bgm. Don't get me wrong I loved the music but I feel like sushin could have made even better music if he had more opportunities. There were like 2 songs in the movie and I felt like we needed more music and more bgm. I know sushin can do more music if there was time, but I also felt that since it was a thriller and there needed to be a lot of talking sushin wasn't able to fit in bgms in the middle like in kurup and bheeshmaparvam. The beginning scene where the music came in was amazing it gave everyone goosebumps and everyone was praising sushin for it. Sushin did a great job with the music in conclusion. Overall this movie was amazing the whole team was amazing and I would recommend it to every mammokka fan I know. I really hope to see movies like this in the future, can't wait!!

What works for this movie is that there are no other decent fares that is running in cinemas. So that is what appears to be keeping this going. Very average story line with the second half really dragging. The goriness that is depicted in the first half as part of a crime is shocking with all the elements thrown in. These movies need to be censored as 'A'. It's the same with most recent movies that are released. Mammooty has managed his part well. Rony has the interesting bits in his character sketch while the other two have average roles as the squad . Villiains are over the top. The fight scenes during the second half are stretched. First investigation bit is totally disconnected to the story line whereas the second one is what the movie is all about. Could have been better.

If you've ever watched Kuttavum Shikshayum, then Kannur Squad is basically a replica of this movie DELICIOUS -Big ups to the editing team, wow😃 What a splendid work that ushered in a thrilling and investigative atmosphere -The cinematography, as well, produced sizzling visuals by heightening the momentum during the chase scenes and maintaining a smooth light control during the night scenes BLAND -Kannur Squad reminded us of Kuttavum Shikshayum as both stories' goal was to honor hardworking and selfless police officers who sacrifice their lives for the nation's sake. Both screenplays centered on a police squad that: -was made up of about the same number of people, -chased the culprits from Kerala to North India, -was trapped in a North Indian village, and -received little recognition from their department The coincidences were just too much that it felt like a déjà vu. As a result, the excitement was lost😓 -As always Mammootty was the undefeated hero, the wisest and strongest of them all... Overall performance and dialogues were plain and the lack of parallel narrative made it a bit dull to enjoy -Why feature prominent actors like Shine Tom Chacko and Sunny Wayne for a few seconds?

I just can't understand why everyone is so obsessed with this movie. It's supposed to be this exciting investigation type of film, but honestly, it gives away all the suspense way too early in the first half. Such a disappointment. Don't get me wrong, the actors did a fantastic job, but the story line and editing were just decent. I really don't get it. It could have been way more interesting if they added a twist at the end. But hey, in the end, it's all about personal preference, and movies are just meant for entertainment, so don't let my comment sway your opinion. Just go watch it and enjoy..

Don't judge the movie solely based on its high star rating. It may be an average movie. It seems to be a copy of 'Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru', which is a superb movie with thrilling scenes and suspense. However, in this movie, the same story is not executed well enough. The scenes that take place in the remote village are awesome, and that is the only part of the movie that stands out positively. The cinematography is excellent, but the main weak point lies in the squad. The squad members seem unnecessary as Mammooty's character handles everything alone, and the squad members simply quarrel among themselves. Many of the storylines do not support the main story, resulting in the loss of the overall thrilling moments that a thriller should provide.

Honestly, can't say anything much wrong about it. Seemed like the story was perfectly crafted, and it gave the director the freedom to execute it properly. The brothers did a good job, and a good insightful interview about their process and timeline to develop and streamline it is required. They haven't overdone anything, that was a good thing. The film even provides a small relief through Mumbaivala Shiju character from the hectic investigation process. There are some Cameo appearances as such. There are 2-3 short scenes in the film that are not suitable to watch for children, but it was necessary and is aesthetically minimal as well compared to similar films. I believe this minimalism in portraying these elements is a very good thing, and hope this ethics in filmmaking won't be replaced. A small ticker that says a film element such as that is to be shown on the the side of the screen with a timer would help as well. To just to say a negative, I am not sure why George had to find words in English, and that too strainingly when he was asking an UP Officer to translate it in Hindi. That was not needed at all, and the film showed earlier he can handle Hindi, cause in a public function he was supposed to sing a Hindi song. Many liked RDX for it's fight sequences, for me some of those were a bit cringey. This film offers some fight sequence as well, and if you like an investigation thriller movie, this is a good one and might be the season best.
