Sadly it is just a revenge drama with some generic thrill moments!
The main credibility of Drishyam is how unique it was, which is totally missing here, especially the second half gets into a generic revenge space. The screenplay becomes so repetitive too, the vengeful people keep threatening the witnesses, they disclose the details and inform Mohanlal to be cautious. This happens as a routine several times, making it a tiring watch. There are plenty of small twists presented in frequent intervals, sadly none of them land due to lack of drama. The only segment that works is the climax, particularly the moment at the very end that exhibits the protagonist�s stubborn nature. Jeethu Joseph has got the potential to present a subject, but the writer in him seems to be washed away, such convenient scenes all over, simply to justify what is in the store next. And we are sent out from the cinemas with a lead for a potential fourth part.(more)

Mohanlal is the saving grace in the least effective film of the franchise
Drishyam 3, the least effective of the three films, does not feel like a page from a thriller series, but rather a peek into the personal diary of someone who has not had a peaceful day in years. But then, there is only so much excitement that can be built from a diary entry. May D3 be the last entry, although the makers teased the possibility of one more in the epilogue. (more)

Sadly it is just a revenge drama with some generic thrill moments!
Although the second part of Drishyam could not match the epic first instalment, it at least managed to maintain the pride with some sort of credible writing. This one is a bummer that it almost turns out to be a disgrace to the franchise.(more)

Georgekutty Finally Runs Out Of Tricks
Unlike the previous two films, which had proper conclusions while still leaving slight ambiguity, Drishyam 3 ends with blatant sequel bait. This time, the desperation to keep stretching the franchise becomes painfully transparent. And much like one character tells another in the finale, I felt like saying the same thing to Jeethu Joseph, Just let it be, just let it be. Let Georgekutty finally have his peace.(more)

The franchise explores guilt, but lacks suspense
The final portions still manage to deliver the tension and emotional payoff expected from the Drishyam brand. Yet the larger question remains unavoidable: was a third part truly necessary? The original film had closure within its moral ambiguity, while the second part expanded the psychological consequences effectively. This third chapter often feels like a continuation driven more by the weight of a successful franchise than by an urgent storytelling need.(more)
