Drishyam is Director Jeethu Joseph’s fourth venture after hugely
successful memories with Pritviraj. His debut as director was the investigation
thriller Detective which had interesting plot but execution was not up to the mark.
But he improved drastically after each film and Drishyam can be considered as
his best till date. His three films are thrillers and he delivers best in this
genre. After Memories now he is considered one of leading and very promising
among new comers.
Drishyam gives much needed relief to Mohanlal too. After not
so success in last few movies he delivers best performance with help of good
script and dialogues. The movie did not had any big hype which usually comes
with the Mohanlal and the trailers did not reveal story plot, which really helped
the film. Family thriller is a genre which is very rare and gives completely
fresh feeling for a Malayalam audience.
First half of the movie takes its time to develop characters
and the plot for the second half. It had some genuine comic scenes and link for
the second half. After interval movie takes turn and becomes thriller and there
many situations will amaze you. And you keep guessing the plot and unveiling of
the story thrills you to the core.
Hats of to writer and director Jeethu Joseph, his hard work
can be seen throughout the movie. He had good support from camera department
handled by Sujith and nice apt background score by Anil Johnson. As usual
Mohanlal delivers solid performance along with Meena. Shajon shocks us with his
carrer best role. Others did their part well. The only negative part of the
movie was casting of some minor characters, otherwise it is a near to perfect
thriller.
