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)
