The movie "Karam" directed by Vineeth Sreenivasan, released in 2025, received predominantly negative reviews, mainly due to its weak script and writing. Critics pointed out that despite good production values, cinematography, and some strong performances, the film struggled with a poorly developed story that lacked depth, flow, and coherence. The writing, done by Noble Babu Thomas (who also played the lead role), was seen as shoddy, with stilted dialogues, an uneven narrative, and a script burdened by loopholes and coincidences. The film's attempt to handle serious themes like human trafficking was undermined by bad plotting, forced humor, and predictable tropes. However, the technical aspects such as cinematography and editing were praised, and some moments of action and visuals were seen positively. Overall, "Karam" is described as ambitious but uneven, with strong technical craft but a disappointing creative execution.
