Editor’s Note: Michael (2023) masterfully blends action and drama while maintaining a personal touch. Under the visionary direction of Ranjit Jeyakodi, the film presents a steady pace and a vivid sense of place. The standout performances, particularly from Sundeep Kishan, Divyansha Kaushik, and Varun Sandesh, add real emotional depth to the narrative. With a runtime of 2 hours and 34 minutes, it maintains a deliberate pace, making each scene count. The overall reception has been mixed; however, it’s worth watching for its unique mood and atmosphere. The tagline—“God only Forgives”—aptly captures the film’s essence. If the storyline resonates with you, it’s definitely worth a spot on your watchlist.
