Lemme keep it short and straight forward this movie really works because of Director's Ambition and Actors giving the movie their fullest. The long takes aren't new to Malayalam Cinema, be it the one in Angamaly Diaries or the one in Jallikattu, every long take I've seen from this industry is in some way brilliant and here in Malik the Long Take actually sucks you right in from the start. Acting performances were all brilliant, Nimisha Sajayan as Roseline is great especially in her later age, she embodies the rough look while the one Stands out would be Joju George, this is like the first time I am seeing him in a major role and Joju actually shows you how talented he is.
Now Fahadh Effin Faasil, the guy rules, Fahadh gets into the soul of character or the Character actually goes in his soul, I don't know but whatever happens results in this Brilliance and sheer Epicness. Now the Negatives... There are a few of those too. Number one would be the way they give out flashbacks..... They narrate it making it seem like its several perspectives but at the end they come out as mere Flashbacks rather than giving any kind of fleshed out Perspective. Number two would be CGI, it seems fake at points. Overall Mahesh Narayanan creates a really good saga that feels important and is a Cinematic Masterpiece that deserves to be seen by every Cinema Fan. Mahesh surely knew how to connect a Goon with the audience along with giving him a Godfather status infront of the people that doesn't effect judgement of the Audience.
8.5/10
THE LEGEND OF FAHADH FAASIL
Fahadh Faasil is one of the best actor working today and one of the best indian actor of all time. Its so great to see him perform, its like the actor disappears and we can only see the character on screen, and every character he's portrayed til now is different and he has nailed each and every character he has played. This year itself, 3 of Faasil's movies released and in all of them he had a different role and no matter how the movie was he nailed all three of them. His upcoming movies include Pushpa (He is rumored to be the main villain of second part tho he'll make appearance towards the end of first). And Legend Kamal Haasan's Vikram (That stars Sethupati as well, hell of a treat). And I can say I contributed in Revival of Cinema, as I watched all three Faasil movies Legally.
THE LONG TAKE
We've seen so many Long Takes throughout cinema's history so what makes the long take in Malik compelling? Its quite simple actually, there's a reason the long take works and sucks you right into the movie. The long take tells you about the aura of character, it tells you the power of Ali Ikka, it gives you a rough tour around the fascinating world you are going to witness ahead... It introduces you to most of the main characters and it sets you right in the mood the movie will head into. All these factors combined help the long take connect with the audience. The Long take actually proves to be much more than just a Cinematic marvel but it also helps elevate the storytelling.
