Bhamini (Honey Rose) is a She Taxi driver who picks up Lucky Singh on his arrival at the airport. The movie progresses with few businesses to take note of but leaves enough hints of something big in store. The story then veers into a thriller terrain and keeps on raining twists.

Monster movie review: This Mohanlal film is outright offensive (The Indian Express)

Monster movie review: It's time Mohanlal stops signing every film that comes to his reading table. Instead, he has to pick the projects that honour his ...

This is a film for amateurs and is not meant to be performed by a cinema giant. This is not the movie for a versatile actor who has given us Iruvar, Kireedam and Drishyam. Monster is a horrible, horrible, horrible film. The day he embraced Sikhism, his fortunes changed and he developed a Midas touch, he claims. The biggest twist in Monster is the main antagonist is a homosexual. He tells her that his life was marked by a series of misfortunes when he was in Kerala and he found his redemption at the Golden Temple in Amritsar, Punjab.

'Monster' movie review: An endurance test of a film, with a warped ... (The Hindu)

It has to be said that the Mohanlal starrer's portrayal of LGBTQIA+ characters does not help in normalising them, but rather in further stigmatising them.

Even the film’s title appears to be a random choice, evident from the last scene where an attempt is made to explain it, as an afterthought. In one key scene, where the lesbian couple is being confronted by a police officer, they proceed to kiss each other in front of him, in an attempt to overemphasise their sexual identity. This first hour is the extended slot set aside for Lucky Singh (Mohanlal) to regale the audience with his Punjabi lines (a mish mash of "Balle balle" and "Soni Kudi") and loads of humour, which is most often an excuse for crass double entendres.

Monster Review | A Monstrous Debacle That Only Udaykrishna Will ... (Lensmen Reviews)

I would say director Vysakh is a clever man in terms of making a film and promoting a film. In the promo material of the movie, he clearly stated that it is ...

Monster is a worn-out Udaykrishna script that uses its juvenile newspaper headline knowledge about the queer community to create conflict that will help them in pre-release claims of being “different.” After writing all those jacky and Stepney jokes, Udaykrishna had the audacity to preach about the acceptance of the LGBTQA+ community at the climax of this film. Sitting through the first half of this movie is an extremely challenging task, and there is a great chance that you might feel the second half is excellent simply because of the crappiness of what you saw before the interval. Just like what Vysakh said in the promo, it is a new thing for him and Udaykrishna. And when it comes to the movie, Vysakh clearly understands how bland the second half of the film is, and he makes sure that the audience will hate the first half so that the second half will look better on screen. I would say director Vysakh is a clever man in terms of making a film and promoting a film.

In a pre-release promo video, Mohanlal said the film's screenplay is both hero and villain. There was a mention of 'monster' in Aaraattu too, and I don't get the obsession. In the pursuit of doing something 'different', the makers conjure a background story for the killers that is as unconvincing as it is insensitive. Yes, we get a mention of it through Lucky Singh's closing dialogue, but it is as senseless as everything else in the movie. In a pre-release promo video, Mohanlal said the screenplay of Monster is both hero and villain. That said, the film exhibits the traits of a vampire in that it sucks your energy instead of blood.

Monster review: This Mohanlal film claims to be progressive ... (The News Minute)

Warning: This review has major spoilers and discusses the ending of the movie. Do not read further if you don't like spoilers. Monster, Mohanlal's new film ...

The crime they choose is murder, Bhamini pretending to fall in love with a man, marrying him, making him take an insurance of a large amount in her name and then killing him so the money comes to her. That’s when you are given the back story of Bhamini and Durga, who both remove their disguises and put angry expressions on their faces. Perhaps it is because the LGBTQIA+ content comes out only towards the end of the film, forming its climax and the answer to the crime the film has been trying to solve. The big suspense behind Bhamini’s so-far nice and loving character only comes out in the climax, in a big haunted-looking house that Mohanlal enters alone, unarmed. Bhamini is cooking breakfast for the family and her husband Chandran (played by Sudev Nair) laments that she has to do all this work and she promptly says, “That’s ok, it is for my family right?” To every woman and particularly every feminist hearing this, the film seems to say, "Don’t make a big deal out of cooking." She does a good job, dancing to a totally unnecessary song Lucky begins singing in their apartment, after barging into the house.

Monster Movie Review: Stay away from the film unless you are an ... (India Today)

Monster features Mohanlal, Lakshmi Manchu, and Honey Rose. · The film opened in theatres on October 21. · Monster is directed by Vysakh.

The Ghoom Ghoom track, composed by Deepak Dev, isn’t a particularly catchy one. It gives the film a distinctly rich look and feel. The film sadly falls apart after the interval. This, fortunately, doesn’t happen as Lalettan brings his quirky antics to life on the big screen without being too over-the-top. They should appeal to those who liked the ones featured in Vysakh’s 2019 actioner Madhura Raja. The film begins with a series of sequences that introduce us to Bhamini and her family. The scenes revolving around his attempts at wooing Bhamini are quite enjoyable and work because of the effective comic timing. Monster, however, fails to make the desired impact as the screenplay, written by Udaykrishna, is quite lacklustre. The first half does a good job of building a sense of mystery around Lucky Singh. It, however, caters to those who want to watch the veteran trying something new on the big screen. This sets the stage for a few revelations and confrontations. While the Ranjith-directed thriller had an intriguing premise, it ended up being a missed opportunity as the screenplay featured one twist too many.
