Night Drive - tea and biscuits


Night Drive
2022, Malayalam

Director - Vysakh

Stars - Indrajith Sukumaran, Anna Ben, Roshan Mathew, Siddique, Kalabhavan Shajohn

Mohan's Measure ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Anna Ben has done it again. She is a phenomenal actress, and in this quiet, understated, role, she stands out even in taking a back seat to others. She is only augmented by the gentlemanly demeanor of Mr. Mathew, who takes on a heroic role with ease. 

Together they are young lovers who decide to go for a late evening drive, and find themselves in a truckload of trouble. Particularly when the young lady, a no nonsense journalist, stands toe to toe against an equally no nonsense cop, played to perfection by Mr. Kumaran.

Corruption abounds, people are being bought out or knocked off, gold being smuggled, and two innocent people being set up as fall guys. While there are occasional exaggerations, what to mention an super hero fight scene, the tense story, good acting, and tightly wound plot make for one intelligent movie.
