Review by Deepak Chazhoor ★★½

Second thriller of the night. Sreeja Das does the role of  femme fatale  all right, but the problem here is that the film is longer than actually needed and overstays its welcome by around 30 minutes. Watchable once to kill time, though disposable.

Review by Sayed Musthaqeem ★

Wasted talented actors like Lukman, Sudhi Koppa and Sumitra with some dumb characters. Since the location is Munnar there are some scenic Shots there. Otherwise from cinematographer to Music technichally, it was a Mess. And the writing was so bad that Felt Like I am watching my imaginary movies from 7th grade.

Overall Such a Bad Film

Review by Athul Suresh ★★½

'No Man's Land' is a crime thriller directed by debutant Jishnu Harindra Varma. The film is about events that take place in an isolated resort on a hill station. The film highlights three characters, Sumitra, Mathaikutty and Ahmed. Sumitra has been working at a resort owned by Sunil for three years. Sumitra does all she can for the guests. Mathaikutty is a character who helps out with other jobs at the resort. Mathaikutty is a young man with no normal intellectual development. The arrival of new guests brings some turning point in the life of Sumitra, who is leading a drunken life. In a story without many characters, the mood and circumstances of the characters are given more importance than…

No man's land (2021) malayalam movie review.

The story of this movie moves around a resort. There are only few characters in this movie. The movie goes slowly and changed the path after a couples comes to the resort for stay. The resort lady and Mathayikuty is the two main characters in the film. Sudhi Koppa also played a vital role.

When coming to the story of the movie it is somewhat a new story but not completely new also. It is like an experiment movie. The story is actually short. Characters are also very few in this movie. Lukman's Mathayikuty is the sole of the movie. He pulled out a excellent performance in the movie. The other characters also do justice to their roles. 

Music and DOP of the movie created the mood that this movie deserved.

The negative of this is the predictability when coming to the climax portion. Logical errors also and characters are not defined properly.

If u like thriller sort of stories with different treatment you can definitely watch this one.

My Rating 3/5

No Man's Land: Experimental Malayalam film heads to Amazon Prime Video

A Malayalam indie film titled No Man's Land is set to premiere on Amazon Prime Video sometime this month. Debutant Jishnu Harindra Varma, who helms the film, describes it as an "experimental, uncompromisingly dark" drama replete with drug use and violence.

"From the outset, we were clear about this not being a film for the theatres. So the possibility of an OTT release afforded us the freedom of making the kind of film we wanted to," says Jishnu.

Lukman Avaran ( Operation Java ), Sudhi Koppa ( Porinju Mariam Jose ), and Sreeja Das ( Angamaly Diaries ) essay the principal characters in the film, which, according to Jishnu, is split into chapters named after each of its characters.

Jishnu cites Darren Aronofsky's much-discussed cult drama Requiem for a Dream as one of its influences. "It's not similar in terms of the story, but mood. The emotions drive the conflict," he says.

Jishnu is confident in his praise of Lukman, who plays the psychologically disturbed central character, calling it an extraordinary performance. "It has the potential to be a much-discussed role. It's a complicated character. There is an intense transformation sequence of his in the film." Aside from the three actors, the film will also feature a group of newcomers.

No Man's Land is said to be heavy on ambience, with sounds playing a significant part. "40% of the film is reliant on sound," says Jishnu. "The sound design took a lot of time and effort. To make sure that we got everything right, we had to go and re-record all the sounds. We shot this at a resort in a tea estate and followed a particular visual style (Pavi K Pavan is the director of photography). We didn't opt for a conventional pace or making style. It's a completely mood-based drama."

Before making his directorial debut, Jishnu worked in the advertising field and briefly associated with Madhu Ambat, albeit not in the capacity of a cinematographer. It was last year's nationwide lockdown that presented an opportunity to make his maiden feature. Filming was completed last September.
