Analysis
Garudan is an intriguing, thought-provoking work of cinema, and a true marvel as an investigative thriller. A movie that explores the multifaceted, nuanced psyches of two intriguing characters with equally high stakes, Garudan is a refreshing piece of storytelling well done to the extent that it'll keep you hooked and on the edge of your seat throughout. It deals with a complex storyline with equally complex characters. The riveting mental tug-of-war that takes place between the two leads is a treat for the soul. Their intellectual battle is witty, intense and suspenseful; loaded with twists and shocking revelations. The story in itself deals with some dark, realistic themes like rape and police injustice.
The direction in this film is amazing as well, with well-executed cinematography that stays in-tune with the plot to deliver a thoughtful cinematic experience. The focus shots in particular are splendid. The musical score for the BGM is literal perfection: it does a marvelous job of heightening the mood of the atmosphere as required flawlessly. Overall, Garudan is a riveting crime thriller that is bound to leave a good impression on you.
