I saw this movie w/o reading any reviews of any sort and i was pleasently surprised.The film starts quite on a slow pace emminating on methran's presence .
Towards the hour mark we witness something that changes the entire dynamic of the movie.What follows is Methran's quest to find all his answers.
I specially liked the screenplay (or rather its timeline) and how it helps the audience to see from Methran's POV.
The director should be given due credit for making this movie as a message to the cinematic industry that with the right set of skills ,beautiful movies can be made.
I also felt that this director could turn out a much much better version of this movie if it were bankrolled by a bigshot.

Why you must watch Koodasha
madhavnishanth28 October 2018
The story is nothing new yet if one does not watch this movie, one is going to miss plenty of surprises. The first surprise is Babu Raj. A man who the people of Kerala know as a villain, a comedian comes back as a hero with a top notch performance. To watch him on screen was as good as watching any superstar. The subtlety of acting, the emotions that played on his face, the eyes...no doubt he gave a power packed performance.
The second surprise came as Aaryan menon. He has a class beyond comparison. Never before seen in a role like this, aaryan was incredibly real. So incredibly real that it was difficult to separate the actor from the character.
The third one was the story. I went in with no expectations but came back with tears in my eyes. A simple one liner but with a twist that becomes almost unbelievable. A psychological thriller is to say the least. You can't classify this movie into a genre. It is entertaining, thrilling and dramatic.
Watch this one. Be surprised.
Best movie

One of the best movie you can see. film is dedicated to fathers and mothers who lost their children due to human mistakes. I have seen baburaj sir in many films but this film is really a best portfolio of his life, I have became a fan to him now.
Excellent thriller

Moderately Entertaining Thriller

This movie is a crisp and entertaining thriller from actor Baburaj who usually plays negative roles in malayalam films but here though his character has dark shades he is a person of good heart.
Positives * Baburaj's performance * Fast moving narrative * Thrilling scenarios in the story
Negatives * It's climax twist is inspired from several Hollywood movies such as Shutter Island * some scenes should have had better executed to make it more gripping and suspenseful
Final Verdict- for thriller movie lovers this movie is definitely a one time watchable average affair
Score : 2.5 out of 5

One-Line Review: Koodasha (5 Stars)
nairtejas20 April 2019
Other than some serious issues in Koodasha's (Holy Ritual) non-linear narrative, it still supplies some novelty in the storytelling of this contract killer's (Baburaj) eventful life as he tries to get out of the world of crime for his daughter. TN.
Touching story and good narration
