A film that pulled people to the theatres even without watching the trailer, whose hype broke the trending list of Book My Show, and created a stir with a rating of 9.5/10 on IMDb.
Today we are going to talk about that masterpiece, which refreshed the memories of ‘Drishyam’ but with a completely new twist.
A simple taxi driver ‘Benz’, who owns a vintage Ambassador car – black, shiny, but even more interesting is the story of that car.
Benz loves his family, but when his car reaches the police station, the story turns from a simple family drama to a mind-bending thriller.
The film will seem simple till the interval, but from there onwards it takes such a turn that you cannot stop yourself from remembering ‘Drishyam’.

Why This Film Is A Must-Watch
- Unpredictable Screenplay: Just like a magician distracts you and blows your mind in the last trick, the climax of this film is absolutely mind-blowing.
- Performance Driven: Aggression oozes from Mohanlal sir’s eyes and mass scene – no six pack, just raw performance.
- Negative Character: Villain of the Year 2025 – a character that silenced everyone in the theater.
- Family + Thriller: The story has emotion, mass, and the suspense that will not let you move from your seat till the climax.
Music & Atmosphere
The background score and songs of the film are also amazing. The story is also running in the songs – that is, there is no disturbance, only emotional connection.
Technical & Writing
- Cinematic Symbolism: Jungle, snake, elephant – everything has been used as a metaphor.
- Smart Writing: Five characters in the story – but the real story revolves around the one who is locked in the trunk.
- A little ‘Kantara’, a little ‘Drishyam’, and the whole of ‘Thoderam’.

Final Verdict
If you want to feel a movie, not just watch it – then it is a sin to miss Thodaram.
This is not a movie, it is an experience – 4.5 stars out of 5 from me.
And yes, remember – this movie is not available in Hindi yet, watch it with English subtitles. But the fun you will get from this, you will not get it in any remake.
Outro
Such movies don’t come again and again – so if you missed Thoderam, don’t rely on the remake.
See you in the next video with another blockbuster review. Till then take care, and remember – watch the original, change the taste!
