One of the few times the sequel lives up to its predecessor

Before releasing the review please note that there is a part of this review that reveals one of the scenes because it was crucial to explain a flaw...

Drishyam 2 was a well written and well directed movie filled with superb performances. First half is definitely is slow and subtle but after the 1hr 10min mark the thrill starts taking place and then you'll have goosebumps till the movie is done. This was probably Lalettan's best performance in recent times and his family, Meena, Esther, Ansiba and the side cast including Murali Gopy was solid and did not make me feel uncomfortable for 1 second throughout the entire movie. Although there were some improbable elements like waiting for the remains to be uncovered and then replacing it without any visible struggle but the movie made up for those things with everything else.

score 10/10
