Cadaver was, unfortunately, a replica of many forensic thrillers without adding something new

Delicious
—From our unschooled eyes, we can say that the makeup done on the corpses looked pretty good! A little uncomfortable to view but it accentuated the reality of the story
—Always a delight to see Munishkanth (playing a police officer) on screen 😀 He usually plays the same hilarious and subordinate character, somehow it never gets dull
—The scenario was straightforward, presenting each character gradually.
We got a good sense of what was going on and when the truth was unveiled, it was quite heartbreaking… “In order to punish sinners, we can be God’s weapons”, a line said in the movie to explain why some prefer to render their own justice.
It’s debatable yet understandable especially when you witness the devastating incidents in Cadaver
—We got a free education on corpse study 🙂

Bland
—We didn’t see Bhadra the surgeon in the film, instead, we saw Amala Paul the superstar.
Amala didn’t appear immersed in her role, there was a lot of showing-off. Moreover, Harish Uthaman (playing a police officer) wasn’t at his best, he almost looked unmotivated
—Cadaver was presented in a trivial manner with the same character designs, e.g. a suspicious clergyman, another suspicious maniac prisoner, and a criminal wearing a black raincoat.
When the murderer’s face was revealed, it wasn’t an astonishing moment, we were more like “oh ok, that was him”
—The cinematographer wasn’t playful with the camera to usher in a suspenseful atmosphere
