Simple and entertaining
Thrishoolin1 April 2021
This movie had quite a simple story and a good script. It's done in such a manner that it succeeds in keeping the viewers invested in the story and the characters all throughout the run time.

The comic timing between the actors are really good. Gokulan stands out as the best comic performer in this one. But that is not to say others did bad. They too were quite good. In fact there is no actor in this movie who did his/her part in a sub par way. All of them did their roles neatly.

The movie doesn't try to be something bigger than it actually is, which is good. At the same time, the marketing for this one was practically non existent, which may not be something good. I doubt if the general public are even aware about the release of this movie.

If you want a light hearted entertainer which won't bore you, please do watch this.

Can skip this one if you want.

Nothing new or special is on the table. The first half of the movie is somewhat filled with few funny moments and jokes, followed by, cliche second half. The movie circular around a bachelor who was financially unstable and have a lot of problems. This is a typical cliche movie where one day he decided to look on the bright side of the world and become a good human being, due to a holy intervention. The movie don't address the real problems of the youngster nor convey any message to the world. After watching this movie i feel it failed to connect with the audience.

Pleasing and humorous film
indianature27 April 2021
I selected Innumuthal on Zee5 (orig. Malayalam w/Eng. Subs) just by chance as it said Comedy.

The film begins and ends with fabulous visuals of a grassland shola mountain range (Vagamon ??) with great music. In fact most of the songs in this movie were quite good.

The main character Abhi (Siju Wilson) is not a particularly religious person, but like almost every Indian he routinely says a short peremptory prayer in front of his God. The narrative revolves around Abhi's search for his 'missing' Krishna, as in a tacky plastic idol of Lord Krishna which one day mysteriously disappears leaving only the plastic flute and plastic cow behind. Abhi is a taxi driver staying in rented rooms. He is always in debt, to his landlady, the local meals kada, his friends, to everyone. Nice typical Malayalam film 'dig' to show Abhi ordering erachi fry in the meals shop :-))) And of course Abhi manages to have money for the favourite passtime of guess what ???? Boozing .. especially with his neighbour Eltho ( humorously played by Gokulan).

The film progresses in a lackadaisical and at times boring manner in the first one third. Eventually in great despair and at his wits end to get money to repay his debts and avoid being thrown out by the landlady, a weird looking person purporting to be the real Lord Krishna (brilliantly enacted by Sooraj Pops) suddenly appears before Abhi.

The story really begins from here, with ample humour, poignant moments, some life lessons and realistic glimpses of human nature. This peculiar Krishna is full of quirky home truths, demolishing many myths (love the typical Mallu film digs), speaks more like a rapper and is a cause of much nuisance for Abhi. Abhi eventually believes that this joker person is the real Lord Krishna who promises him a good ending to his problems if he does as he is told, no matter how irksome the tasks may be.

In short, Abhi sets out to do the various tasks set for him by Lord Krishna. The final task is to drop an elderly disabled blind man (Uday Chandra) to the railway station to catch his train home to rural Madhya Pradesh. Abhi leaves the old man in the train compartment which is chock a block full. He feels guilty leaving a helpless blind person on his own like that and ends up accompanying the old man in a series of transit journeys until they reach his village only to discover that the old man's wife and daughter have declared him dead, sold the property and moved on to greener pastures. Another Mallu film 'dig' here is guess who??? .. the current PM's poster in the village !!!

Nice Anbe Sivam style touch in the remaining narrative .

Innumuthal is quite a pleasing movie. I would have rated it an 8 and it would have been a much better film had the extraneous portions in the beginning been considerably shortened or dispensed with.

A fantasy feel good movie worth watching
hargemini31 March 2021
This movie does not disappoint you.... A simple but interesting fantasy feel good movie that breaks all stereotypical concepts about god and the perception about godliness... After Vaarikkuzhiyile Kolapathakam, director Rejishh Midhila has succeeded in delivering yet another decent movie that's worth a watch...

Not a fantasy, can happen to you too, may be one day you may meet your god
girijat9 July 2022
I am a great devotee of Krishna. When I saw the movie, I could relate myself in the movie and I laughed at many places as I could see myself in the movie. I only felt like I happened to meet Krishna and had these conversations. As hero ask in the movie, I used to tell Krishna that if you solve all my loan problems, I will be happy and try to be good. The answer god gae in the movie felt like an answer to me and really it was hilarious and I laughed my heart out. I couldnt see the actor in the movie who acted as krishna. I felt krishna was there in the place because all the dialogues were written with utmost care and at many places there were presence of divinity. The words were very selective and chosen carefully. Wherever it should appear funny, it is hilarious and wherever some serious thought has been pronounced, their the wordings were picked up so carefully, particularly the climax scene. My big salute to the director who really pulled this off movie with such divinity. Many shots had given me goosebumps like the interval scene, scene in where the hero was able to see Krishna idol in the temple, and the climax of the movie. Oh my god, I really lost my heart to the scene and I truly adored and loved it.

Director, a big hats off to you. Even if lord Krishna happens to see this movie, he will feel really happy. I get peace of mind and happiness when watching the movie. I mostly probably watch at least one to two times a week because I feel very connected with the movie. I do believe the story completely because I know for sure that I will one day meet my Krishna. My heartfelt adorance to Siju Wilson who brought life to the character of Abhinandhan and I loved his character to the core. I really loved the hero for his acting and also to his dedication as an actor. Love you man. Krishna loves you too.

A very simple movie
kuriakoseg4 April 2021
The movie "Innu Muthal" is quite a good watch. Initial few mins is a little slow but then you start getting sucked into it.

The Korean and the Hindi songs were beautiful.

The hindi song that comes towards the latter part of the movie gets you into the mood.

Overall my verdict: A very simple movie which is a good watch and has some amazing songs.

Watch it without any expectations and you will love it👍🏻

Entertainer. Good movie
nikhilnssn7 April 2021
Although started off weakly, the movie made it up from middle to end.

Even if it may bore you initially, it will create an impact towards the end.

Nice comedy in between. Nice story.

A feel good movie. Dont know why it went unnoticed.

Feels good movie
vipinshine11 April 2021
This is the first Siju Wilson movie I watched. I feel he is a versatile actor and having some resemblance with Mohanlal sir. Seems like he is having a great carrier ahead probably the next superstar of Malayalam film industry.

Movie is feels good one. Nothing extra ordinary. But performance wise great.

Relaxing thought-provoking movie
nidhin-0366312 May 2023
It's a lighthearted yet thought-provoking film with a spiritual essence. The story revolves around a unique concept: in our excessively materialistic society, where individuals go to great lengths to achieve success, they unknowingly lose touch with their inner spirituality. The movie sheds light on this reality and follows the journey of a character as they discover and nurture the divine essence within themselves. The film embraces the ancient concept of "Tat Tvam Asi" and explores personal growth and self-realization and in a captivating manner.

The film is also a commentary on the materialistic world we live in. It shows how people can become so focused on material possessions and success that they lose sight of what is truly important in life. The film suggests that we need to find a balance between the material and the spiritual. We need to have enough to live comfortably, but we also need to make time for our spiritual growth.
