Mixed audience reactions to ‘Leader’
The film is receiving divided feedback from viewers. One social media review reads, “Too much twisted spy thriller with very few interesting but mostly cliched. A spy thriller with too many cliche action scenes and intertwisted stories and too much twisted that every scene become a twist which are sometimes pleasant surprise like the end climax but sometimes too much cringe like the story of villain.. Good things first .. the cast has been well selected especially top notch villain role for santhosh pratap who has been seen in many filma as only foreign mappillai but had a meaty role… Incidentally all villains played their part very well which was one of the few interesting parts… Screenplay , considering the director as experienced with movies like Kodi etc.. is very disappointing trying to fix in too many sub stories in the time of play like bringing a hostage story of another country which itself is one full movie content but shown in 20 mins as sub story and so many places too huried..”Another viewer wrote, “Well written script. The script and screenplay of the movie are well-written and form the strongest pillars of the film. The story is engaging, with a clear narrative flow that keeps the audience interested from beginning to end. The screenplay, in particular, deserves appreciation for how it balances emotional moments, drama, and pacing without making the film feel slow or stretched. Each scene seems thoughtfully placed, contributing meaningfully to the overall progression of the story.“‘Leader’ is currently in a testing phase at the box office and the 13% growth on Sunday is a small positive sign. The film needs stronger traction this week to build momentum.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
