Anand 01/21/2024 The casting was strange to begin with. Jayaraman and Mammootty didnt quite fit there, or their tired acting suggested they were doing someone a favor. In an attempt to get into the story, the movie throws a lot of names onto the audience- its hard to keep track of them until the very end. When Mammootty comes into the scene the first time, there was a lot of blaring rock music in the score to announce his arrival. Seriously? Thats such immature movie making. As far as murder thrillers go, I think the best one in this genre was Ancham Pathira. Give this one a miss and you wont miss anything.

See more Dhanu K @RT34477984 04/01/2024 Abraham Ozler attempts to build suspense with a serial killer plot, but it relies heavily on tired stereotypes and fails to consistently captivate the viewers. However, the film's most critical misstep was revealing the central suspect through marketing way before release, spoiling the mystery and diminishing the overall experience.

I stumbled upon a comment in the Letterboxd review section which stated that, Garudan, Anjaam Pathiraa & Ozler should be in the same universe. I agree with it because it will become one hell of an ensemble especially the villains! Abraham Ozler is the story of the Ozler, a senior police officer, who is yet to recover from the murders of his wife & daughter. To keep himself distracted, he takes up the case of a new serial killer in town, who leaves a birthday greeting next to their victims.  Jayaram is the next veteran to take up a psychological thriller and become the lead cop. And as expected, he nails it. The sombre, insomniac, frequently hallucinating cop act is brilliant. The supporting cast members including Saiju Govinda Kurup, Mammootty, Anaswara Rajan, Adam Sabiq & Jagadish excel in their respective roles.  Midhun keeps the thriller vibes intact as he has done in his other movies. The setup is excellent, add in the element of a traumatised cop & you have yet another plot element to play with. But as with Garudan, the 2nd half is a bit of a stretch. With Ozler, once the suspense is revealed, the backstory just feels like a filler. Nevertheless, I loved the casting and I hope there is a shared universe somewhere down the line. As with Pathiraa, Ozler is sure to get a sequel. See more Read all reviews
