Irul is a malayalam language mystery thriller released in 2021 available on Netflix. Irul means darkness.
This is my third movie of the day after Uru (2017) & Koi Jaane Na (2021), where all had a few things common. All three movies were thriller and one of the main character was a book writer. I guess either the writers are turning into serial killers or the killers have started writing.
Jokes apart, let’s come to the story. Alax is a book writer who recently launched his first book based on serial killings, recently got in a relationship with Archna who is a lawyer by profession. Alax plan a surprise trip on weekend and both agree to go without their cellphones.

But as their car broke down mid way they had to seek shelter in a nearby house. The person inside the house a quite mysterious and interesting. As the night goes on with some questions and answers, an electric shut down reveals a murder in the basement and the killer among them.
Who is the killer …..???
The story has a lot of twists and turns and kinda interesting and also engaging for viewers. And I must say the best thriller u have seen today. The acting and direction of the film is also good.

Overall the film is good and watchable. You may feel bore in between the scenes where there are no dialogues but rest is fine. And the ending could have been a bit better as well. But you can surely watch this on Netflix.
Rating: 6.2/10
The post won’t give you any spoilers so you can still have all the excitement while watching the movie. A review by a comman unpaid viewer.
