Delicious
—The colorist saved the day 😀 Such a meticulous job in defining the greenery and different environments of the movie; our attention was captured!
—Vinod Illampally moved the camera gracefully, concentrating on the characters and set design. The lens was guiding our eyes to the specific detail to look at
Bland
—The storytelling was a bit confusing as it contained many unnecessary elements that didn’t affect the plot, e.g. the fact that the little girl Tina had to be an orphan and the scenes in the orphanage.
Heaven is about 95% flashback scenes that we totally forgot where the movie even started from
—What happened to Sudev Nair (playing officer Kuruvilla) and Nimisha Sajayan (playing Defence Councillor)? 😱
One of the reasons for watching Heaven was to see these amazing faces, but they were only allocated a few seconds
—The fight sequences were a little cheesy 🙁
—With a title like Heaven, you really expect ‘heavenly’ circumstances to happen. The film was rather quiet and didn’t explain why this name was required. Hence, another title wouldn’t have made much difference
