IMO, I felt like it was a pretty good movie. There was extremely slight confusion during the entire reveal, but the comedy was well-timed and felt very malayali-characteristic. I feel like the scriptwriter was a huge Agatha Christie, 'coz it felt like the malayali version of her worl 'And then there was none' (Do not come for me, I read it a long time but felt the same feelings when reading that work and watched this movie). Also, NGL, it was pretty well carried out. Basil's characteristic anger, Soubin's brilliance, Chandini's femme fatale performance were so good to watch. I think my most fave bit was Chemban Vinod's bit towards the end (y'all will understand when it gets there). I think the off-screen crew have done a great job carrying the movie as well.
