It is a crime suspense thriller. Director Jeetu Joseph, who had a sensational success with the Drishyam series, shot the film in the same style again. Jeetu is a director who knows how to make a crime thriller suspenseful. Nooti was one hundred percent successful in making the movie thrilling and suspenseful throughout. The film, which started with the introduction of 11 characters, turns interesting with Mohanlal, who made his entry as a drunkard. Mobile phones play the game at the bachelor party. One of his secrets is revealed with a phone call to Siddharth giving a bachelor party in this game. This creates confusion and suspicion among those friends. Meanwhile the story takes a turn with the death of their friend's wife Shiny.

Apart from this, there are no other twists in the movie but it is thrilling and interesting for everyone to reveal their hidden secrets. The movie run time is a bit longer at 2 hours and 42 minutes. Shiny murder? Suicide? Was narrated in a very gripping manner till the end. The screenplay is as impressive as the scene, scene 2. The background music is also well-crafted to create suspense.

Who did it?
As a drunkard, Mohanlal was cast in another role. There is nothing special about his acting. The rest of the characters gave a settled performance throughout the week. Story, narration, acting of characters, BGM, cinematography are the main strength of the film. The whole story of the movie takes place on the same day. From the beginning of the film, director Jeetu tried to immerse himself in the story. Then telling a truth .. in the meanwhile revealing that it is a lie can be said to have been directed in a very thrilling way. Overall, if you want to see a good suspense crime thriller like the 'Scene' series, you should definitely try '12th Man'.
