Where to Watch Bramayugam
- VarunOctober 19, 2024The future of Malayalam cinema is bright. The cinematography is absolutely top notch, it reminded me of the expertly crafted camera movements from old B&W Japanese films. For a movie set in one location, it kept me engaged for the entire 2+ hours. The mansion’s grand magnitude is overbearing and its desolation can be felt in every shot. The acting from all three characters is great with Mammootty standing out as a force to be reckoned with. The dialogue is also pretty good. There’s a meditative quality to this film and the pacing and script makes you experience the horror of being trapped and your time running out. The ending is a bit confusing at times, with a few awkward scene transitions and some plot points introduced out of nowhere. I’m wondering if the English subtitles provided were the real problem for some of the exposition. But I still enjoyed the end as it was pretty riveting with some well shot sequences and twists, and I also gained some satisfactory answers from an ending explained thread on Reddit. Overall it’s a pretty solid film, and since the large mansion combined with camera angles play a huge role in evoking a sense of dread, I highly recommend watching this on a big screen.
