I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Even the best of actors can't save a movie as awful as this one is and no one can blame the array of greats made to participate in this farce masquerading as an experiment. It's an experiment alright, but more like torture. Regardless of whether a movie is being shot in one day or twenty days, a good story is necessary for any movie. This movie seemed to be conceptualized to be filmed in a day instead of narrating a good movie. Mohanlal looks disinterested in the proceedings and does a rare mediocre act in this movie. The worst part of this movie is that it can't be even seen as a guilty pleasure. Sure, the effects are the extreme of tackiness, but, the movie is let down by its sense of dread and hero worship. Stay away or watch when you can't get to sleep.

"I dedicate this film to all directors who are inspirating me." - Prashanth Mambully. Yes, the key word is inspirating. Watching this beginning line in the movie, I realised that whatever happens next will be not as I expected. I saw Bhagavan mainly for one reason - it was completely shot in Allied Hospital, Kunnamkulam(Thrissur) where my dad works. So I sat through it.Okay good points first. I think many of the lesser popular actors like Daniel Balaji(best performance), actors who essayed the role of Police head Mohammed Iqbal, the wheel chair father of a young girl, the young girl itself(dunno their names), actor Sudheesh(flirty male nurse) have done their best to be sincere in their roles. Daniel Balaji will continue to get offers as he shines as a villain and maybe be a hero too. Even the camera-work was nice in some scenes like the commandos storming out of a helicopter or the slow-motion scene of police chief Mohammed Iqbal & his team walking through a corridor discussing strategy. And the aim of creating a record movie was good, and they achieved it too. Completing a movie in 12 hours with only 9 camera, absolutely inside the hospital. A good intention but bad delivery!The cons far outweigh any pros. "Inspirating"?!!! And "diffused"(as in bomb diffused)?! This clearly showed the interest levels of the filmmakers. A little Google check would have corrected such embarrassing errors. There's been negligible or no research even in the characterisation of the terrorist, forget other characters. The main terrorist Saifudeen(done by Daniel Balaji) looks more like a madman who's hopeless in hand to hand combat. If a middle-aged gynaecologist can take him down in less than 3 secs, then I don't really have to say anything! Even Mohanlal's natural flair could not save even his own performance, thanks to the script and clichéd dialogues like "One day, I too became God...." This must unarguably be the weakest movie in his career. Actresses like Lakshmi Gopalaswamy and Lena had nothing(significant) to do.Verdict - Unless you have a 'reason' like me to watch, stay far away.Finally, to the filmmakers - Forget Bhagavan(movie) and pray to Bhagavan(God) for your next movie. Amen

The story of the movie isn't that great. It mostly looks like a experimental movie...This movie was finished in a very short time, so the movie doesn't seem to have the right elements. i am just surprised to see an awesome actor like Mohanlal being a part of this project. I hope not to see a movie like this in Malayalam again. They should stop making movies for rather and start doing movies with great stories. I am sure there are more people interested in seeing movies with great stories and actors rather than seeing movies that trying to make history.This movie is one of the worst movies i have seen in Malayalam cinema. From the time I heard about this movie being made i was thinking how the story is going to be and it was basically worse than i thought. I hope Mohanlal chooses better movies in the future. Its sad to see an actor like him in these kind of movies. It feels like his tremendous acting talent is being wasted.
