Geetu Mohandas’ Drama is bumpy and overstuffed, but with passages of great beauty and a superb Nivin Pauly. One part of me wished this ambitious film had stuck to one story in one timeline, but in a strange way, this in-between mood is what makes the events stand out.

Bardwaj Rangan - FilmCompanion
Geetu Mohandas' second directorial feature tells a potent if complicated story sometimes confused by gratuitously hyperactive editing. A less flashy presentation would have heightened the emotional impact. Still, this eventful story involving lost family connections and Mumbai’s criminal underground is nonetheless a handsome, accomplished piece of work. Its gay angle should help access some commercial placements after festival travel.

Watch Moothon witness Nivin in a never-seen-before character and for a tale which is still ahead of its time.

Moothon features one of Malayalam cinema’s biggest commercial heroes, but is nothing like the quintessential Nivin Pauly films he’s known for. Even the film’s crime adventure image is inaccurate, since it is also a drama, a tragedy and so much more. All of this may sound messy, but it is also what makes ‘Moothon’ a memorable experience.
