"Gangster" Malayalam movie is watchable one for its technical brilliance.a gangster story set mainly against the backdrop of Mangalore. The movie stars Mammootty in the lead role of Akbar Ali, a prominent gangster controlling the Mangalore city. 

 

Highlight of the performances is none other than Mammootty himself. He enacts the role of Akbar to sheer perfection with his stylish looks and dialogue delivery.Cinematography by Alby is brilliant. The frames look rich and some of the camera angles makes us just awestruck.

 

The climax portions of the movie are brilliantly executed which matches to international standards. The fight sequences are not those ones which we have seen in Malayalam movies. The director and stunt director deserves a big applause for the same sequences.
