  Oru Jaathi Jaathakam 2025

  ★★★ Watched 23 Mar 2025

  I had a good time watching it and found myself laughing in several parts. Vineeth Sreenivasan was great.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. It highlights how technology is often misused when it falls into the wrong hands. The screenplay was highly entertaining and engaging, and the performances from everyone were excellent.

Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington and Pedro Pascal give really good performance. I am really in awe of this director Ridley Scott, who in his late 80's pulling off such big movies. I really enjoyed the movie a lot, the…
