Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Dear V.K.Prakash,do you like movies? I mean, are you interested in cinema? Or do you simply want to save the human race? I ask because you did direct some awful films like Trivandrum Lodge and Poppins.There was quite a bit of mystery to your film Nirnayakam. For a while, I did not know where the film was going. The structure was quite interesting. An impulsive young man's anomie and acedia as a cadet in the Indian army develops into a story about a social crusade. In the process, he finds himself.Overall, you did keep the ship from sinking. It was not a bad film. But I only watched it because my grandmother was watching it.Every time I watch one of these new Malayalam movies, I'm always thinking - the possibilities were endless. You could have taken this film in any direction if only you had the imagination.Asif Ali was decent as the confused protagonist. He is as bad an actor as Kunjacko Boban or Biju Menon. Which means he is tolerable. Which means he is going to be around for another 20 years. Mediocrity is the future. And you V.K.Prakash would assure it stays that way. I hope you made enough money in the last 12 years, man. I don't think I would watch your next film unless my wife or grandmother is watching it.Best Regards, Pimpin.(5/10)

A common man's fight against the corrupt system is a topic that has been done-to-death by numerous films in the past.Fortunately,the expertise of writer duo Bobby and Sanjay comes here for the rescue and they have succeeded in presenting an inspirational emotional thriller that raises voice against the faulty proceedings existing in the system.V.K.Prakash translates the screenplay engagingly into a decent thriller with his good directorial skills and technical support from the crew.An easily connectible plot does half the job here with the major incident being something that each of us have come across at least once in our life,but have kept silent due to a variety of reasons.Even though the movie took some time to present its major plot in a concrete manner,the well-executed second half did the trick,keeping the audience hooked till the climax that puts forward a good message to the social scenario of today.The courtroom sequences was the pick of the narration and brilliantly executed by V.K.P with some notable performances from the cast esp Prem Prakash who have come out with his career best performance.The powerful dialogs by Bobby-Sanjay aimed at the fraudulent system were hard hitting and received claps form the audience.Performancewise,Prem Prakash stole the show with his brilliant portrayal of the firebrand advocate Sidharthan and this one can be counted as his best performance till date that showcases his caliber as an efficient actor.Asif Ali did his part really well,being particularly impressive in the pre-interval NDA sequences.Nedumudi Venu as Venukuttan Mash and Sudheer Karamana as the judge were notable.Among others Adhil Ibrahim,Malavika Mohan etc did their part well.Music by M.Jayachandran was average and the Background Score by Ouseppachan was powerful and well-suited.Editing by Mahesh Narayanan was crisp and frames by Shehnad Jalal were good.Overall,Nirnayakam is a decent thriller worth a watch for its theme and neat execution.Verdict::Leaving aside the minor flaws,V.K.Prakash-Boby-Sanjay trios Nirnayakam is a thought-provoking thriller that deserves a watch for its relevant theme and genuine narration.Do catch the film from theaters itself if you get a second chance as I did.Better late than never!

Nirnaayakam is definitely not an entertainer, it is not for those who go in for the sheer pleasure of watching a movie in a theatre, it doesn't offer you anything of that sort.But it contains a very relevant message which needs to be passed on. So Watch it for just that. The writers Bobby and Sanjay has once again proved their mettle with a good script. It is like a wake up call to the people of Kerala. Coming to the actors, there is nothing flashy, everyone did their jobs well. Prem Prakaash requires a special mention. Asif Ali has matured as an actor. VKP did OK. I felt some problems with casting, especially that of sri. NEDUMUDI VENU, because his role in this movie very much resembles his role in the Tamil film ANNIYAN(starring vikram). Good movies(i mean script) like this fail to impress the audience because film makers fail to understand that Entertainment is as vital as the message if not more.
