C U Soon (2020)

Its a movie about vulnerability and survival instincts. Its also about strong women and how their willpower rescues themselves, and fellow humans from predators. It has subtle elements of respecting space, identity, love beyond all conflicts and the need for mutual respect. No over acting. No distractions. A direct reflection of reality, well acted by the director and his actors and equally well delivered by the crew behind. I tell you, none of your predictions will go right about the story; - primarily because actors of this movie does not seem to be selfish to change scripts for their advantage.

Fmovies: #Review #OnamPremiere #CUSoon #AmazonPrime #MalayalamMovie #FahadhFaasil #SpoilerFree After the magnum opus that was Take Off, Mahesh Narayanan blows it out of the park again with the spine-tingling, compelling thriller that is C U Soon. Inspired heavily from the narrative style of films like Searching and Unfriended: Dark Web, the story moves forward primarily through Google Duo video calls and Face-time as a web-security expert searches far and wide for his cousins missing girlfriend. The nuance and subtlety driven into each character by the three brilliant leads-Fahadh, Roshan Mathew and Darshana Rajendran instantly buy you into the storyline. While Fahadh as usual captivates you with his eyes, Roshan conveys the urgency and desperation of his character with elan. However, it is Darshana Rajendran who steals the show as the initially timid 'Anumol' who becomes a well-fleshed out and awe-inspiring character towards the end. The fact that this film was conceived and shot completely at home, via iPhones and tablets during lockdown just goes to prove the adage from Johnny Flora "If necessity is the Mother of Invention, than adversity must surely be the Father of Re-invention." Highly recommended.

Just watched it on Amazon Prime on the 'Thiruvonam' day from Denver, Colorado. Quite frankly it was so hard to switch off 'Searching' expectation. But, as the movie progressed , it got me glued to my seat and switch off that other movie's 'screenplay'. The story is very good (not perfect for the small plot holes etc) and the acting is excellent, starting of course with Fahad and others. PS: Must watch and enjoy the flow of the movie than trying to make sense of the format if you are not used to it. It is an experimental one and I am glad Malayalam movie industry jumped at it. MG

C U Soon fmovies. Great movie, shot in a very different way. Fahad nailed it.... great work guys

Never thought it would be so interesting to witness a movie which is shot just on an iphone and that too completely online.. Fahadh, Roshan and Darshana truly stole the show.. It's the actors and actresses which makes a movie thrilling not the equipments.... 🖤

I have created an account in IMDB just to write about this movie. It is an extra-ordinary movie siting a serious issue. This movie is a magic. I am not pointing out anyone specific here. But they just nailed it man. A must watch movie.
