Lucifer (2019) - 175 min

Lucifer is an Indian film directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran.
Starring Mohanlal, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Vivek Oberoi, Manju Warrier, Tovino Thomas & Indrajith Sukumaran.
The sudden demise of PK Ramdas opens the possibility of a new business proposition for Ramdas’ son-in-law Bobby. All his ideas shatter when Stephen Nedumpally stood against him to follow his political mentor Ramdas footsteps.
It's a 'mass entertainer’ from actor-turned-filmmaker Prithviraj in his directorial debut Lucifer. Lalettan with his amazing dialogue delivery captivates every single scene and expressions of a devil also boost his body language. Vivek Oberoi, who plays the villain role is menacing and Vineeth's dubbing suits him perfectly. The item song and its background scenes all fall short. Also, Prithvi's Zayed Masood character was not up to the mark. The cast looks rich so do the setup of certain premises. Sujit Vasudev's frames look damn awesome, especially the close-up shots. Murali Gopy's script is not a brain squeezer this time. Overall, It's a fanboy tribute to Mohanlal that can easily please the fans and has enough moments to capture an audience's attention.
Verdict: Good
