I am really fascinated to see something beyond the traditional tutelage. Thank You team Kathbirali for giving us a masterpiece like this one.

Fabulous cinematography & mind blowing script & screenplay

[masummpe · 9/10 · 27 April 2020]

Now it's time to show everyone that we can make real life & thrilling movie. Acting is mind blowing.

Kathbirali is a master piece.

[mahibulhaider · 9/10 · 31 January 2020]

I never expecte we can make such a wonderful movie. It's really an awesome movie. It has capability to play with your mind and your emotions as well. You could not even predict the story till the end.

Bold and strong one.

[hridoytarikul · 9/10 · 20 January 2020]

I am not recommending this movie just because it is a Bangla movie. (movie er bapare amar eto desh prem nai) I am recommending it because genuinely it is a good movie. Fantastic cinematography, story telling and character build up and most importantly bold story. Thrilling and Brilliant. Must watch.

Good movie, but plot can be more decorated..

[aasif-73484 · 7/10 · 24 April 2020]

Acting, cinematography, songs of the movie are excellent in respect of Bangladeshi movie. I feel that the story was not a perfect thriller. But it's a very good romantic & dramatic movie. Those who watch a lot of quality thriller movies, can guess it easily, then feel the plot boring. But general people may feel the thrill. To make the thrill strong, the plot can be decorated in a better way. The director is talented, he showed his talent in some points of the movie. Main theme of the movie is different.

Cinematrogaphy was too good ♥♥

[smsi-88088 · 9/10 · 27 April 2020]

Really it's a good movie. After Sopnojal I liked this one.

Best Awful and horribly distract full movie for ever

[princebiswajitbarua · 7/10 · 12 July 2020]

The Movie shows bothersome fornicational issue. And awkwardly single buddy kills everyone which fully absurd, where it is not caught by Police. Absurdity level is fully high. And This type of movie is very much injurious to new lover or newly married couple. This movie is fully demotivating, and Doubt making to the relationship.

Awesome

[mahamudfaysal-96035 · 8/10 · 2 May 2020]

Outstanding movie...Bengali cinema will move forward this way

best Bangladeshi romantic and dramatic cinema..

[shamiulalimbadhon-86229 · 10/10 · 30 April 2020]

One of the best Bangladeshi romantic and dramatic movie. I have never seen such a movie before. There is a strange beauty hidden inside the cinema.

Poor Screenplay but Great Cinematography.

[linassphinx · 5/10 · 27 April 2020]

Poor Screenplay of a wonderful plot. Great Cinematography of rural Bangladesh.

Every frame looks like a portrait of Aphrodite..

[juvenilex · 10/10 · 17 March 2021]

Splendid cinematography, picturesque landscape and sublime acting made the whole film worthy of being a lifetime memory in comparison to other contemporary Bengali films being created. Being curious, I looked for the debut director of this film, Niamul Mukta, on internet and came across his struggle to make this superb movie come in reality. Hats off brother. Even dreaming for such movie in present condition of Bangladeshi cinema, it needs guts.

Expecting more from you soon.

[akramul47 · 8/10 · 3 May 2020]

Great cinematography, great background score, decent story. This is definitely a step up from typical Bangladeshi movies and I loved it.

A master piece from Bangladesh

Nutshell- Kathbirali (2019)- Good, Bold but Could have been better

[lionel-logic · 8/10 · 16 June 2020]

The social message regarding the impotent problem has been increased in the Bengali society due to the conservative environment of the village. Furthermore, it explores the reasons of the odds in the rural area. The chemistry was quite a little off with Sporshia due to the acting skills that limited her to speak within their dialects that mixed with the Dhakaiya ones, until the ending. But, the ending is a bit rushed but it reminds me of Trivikram (S/O Sathyamurthy director) for its new and informative ending, though it could have been slowly justified. Otherwise, the story is brilliant and the other actors foreshadowed it so well that, we can understand the flawed human beings. On the contrary, few explanations are needed! Everyone's acting is awesome but Sporshia's due to the glamorous avatar that overshadowed her acting. To further mention, the protagonist's performance and charisma could have been developed a little more to take a time to the character, otherwise a good performance. The screenplay could have been a little tighter as a romantic story but the screenwriter has the potential to capture the emotions to carry out. It has a brilliant cinematography, good to great acting performances but a story which could have developed with the characters visually, not only in a dialogue form. The ending is quite unpredictable and emotional. Overall, it has the Bengaliana feeling and a bit of a charm, with the mixture of mystery and thriller, as well as its realism! For my friend screenwriter-I remember, Alfred Hitchcock remade his own film 'A Man Who Knew Too Much', then his remake became a hit as he quoted 'from a talented amateur to the living professional'. I know, you can do it!

Note- Furthermore, it symbolizes the expectations and reality and also our perceptions about 'Kathbirali' (Squirrels)

18+ 😑

[nisatfarabi · 4/10 · 7 May 2020]

Well to be honest, its a great work. I like the cinematographyof rural Bangladesh. The way director showed the plot and camera angel works are absolutely brilliant! ❤ story, background music are also good(not great). Acting was perfect, in the other words the story was slow dramatic romance. I was getting to like the slow story, characters and plot development. Until an hour.

SPOILER WARNING🔥 (Spoiler in the bracket, just ignore if you haven't watched yet. Read below bracket to find out my 4* reason!) (((((The story completely changed when the main actress said " jilapi dia ki mon bhore!". Then the happy family turned into in horrible situation, i like the works until actor went for job!)))))

Then all changed! Movie got boring. Just becouse it hasn't shown perfectly. Director made it fast. Story became fast. There were few big big twist in last 30 minutes. twists weren't consistency just becouse director couldn't highlighted very well. There were no seriousness background music, even on the protagonists! In the last of all, everything were perfect making in first hour. I couldn't even find a single relete between name and story! 😑

Nutshell: Kathbirali (2020) Good, bold but could've been better

One of the Best Bangladeshi movies.

[taseendu · 10/10 · 18 January 2021]

This movie amazed me. Story, screenplay, and most importantly a great casting. Sporshia, Abir, Shawon, ShaJib and, Shilpi sarker apu were outstanding. Cinematography was wow. This movie has a lot to offer you. The role played by Sporsho could not imagine anyone else... Honestly there is no other actress as brave as Sporshia.

Plot & Cinematography

[sohagh-s · 10/10 · 8 May 2020]

Incredible location of Pabna,Bangladesh ! Really amazing with marvelous cinematography! Storyline was good, well written-off , and it gives a very calm and peaceful vibe throughoutthe whole time with a twist at its highest peak! Another nice bangla movie after aynabazi and swopnojal.

Overall it was a very experience.

[dkdider · 8/10 · 30 April 2020]
