The main positives are of course Mohanlal and Mammootty, major drawback for me was the lack of a strong plot and lengthy duration of the movie. I would say there were some high moments but the movie should have been cut short by at least 40,50 minutes to make it more engaging.“Another viewer offered a more balanced take on the film’s execution, stating,“The core storyline isn’t entirely novel. Similar thematic elements were explored in recent Malayalam films like JSK and Hridayapoorvam, albeit as subplots. However, Patriot attempts to present this idea on a much grander canvas. Talking about the positive factors; Manush Nandan’s cinematography was rich & it gives a class appeal. Editing of Mahesh Narayanan & Rahul Radhakrishnan was crisp & sharp.”DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
