Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 02/17/2021
2.5/5
Lucifer proves that Prithviraj does have a flair for direction, and the ability to amp up the drama, and keep things moving briskly. Next time around, maybe lop off some running time, and tamp down the ear-shattering background music. Go to Full Review

1.75/5
There is so much that could have been done with this intriguingly frank and realistic theory on the essentialness of evil... What we get instead is Lucifer's transparent ambition that overwhelms everything else in this enterprise. Go to Full Review

The Mohanlal-starrer is bursting with swag, has a genuinely gripping plot and is full of delicious twists and turns resulting in a strong political drama and delicious revenge saga in equal measure. Go to Full Review
Sanjith Sidhardhan The Times of India 03/29/2019
3.5/5
Lucifer is a mass entertainer that is sure to please the fans and has enough going for to make it an engaging thriller as well. Go to Full Review

Lucifer is almost a diehard Mohanlal fan's fantasy come true, but unfortunately it fails to rise above that. Go to Full Review

Arnav S Jun 23 Great movie and needs guts to make such type of movie. Media sold their souls to politicians which is reality in India See more Athul M Mar 26 A movie that starts out great with the backdrop of a power struggle set in Kerala's political landscape but slowly deteriorates into typical mass movie cliche.

Multi layered script is the main attraction of this film See more Althaf N 11/26/2023 As a normal film audience looking for entertainment this movie provides what it should deliver See more 06/21/2022 Prithviraj Sukumaran's Lucifer had huge expectations. First and important factor for that is Mohanlal is the main lead. Second, the rest of the cast and crew. The trailer was also excellent. I watched this movie two days after the release and all the reports stated that it is a masterpiece and best in recent times. Some compared it to Narasimham. After I watched the movie, I was wondering what was so extraordinary in this movie except Mohanlal's performance and the making of the movie. I am a neutral fan. Watching Mohanlal kicking some asses is good, but it is nothing extraordinary if the movie as a whole is not extraordinary. The movie is 180 minutes long and it doesn't bore often. This is a good movie showcasing the superstar power like Petta or The Great Father. Now don't get me wrong. This is not a negative review. But I have to say that from Prithviraj and the word off mouth after release, I expected a masterpiece like Drishyam or atleast Oppam. Performance wise, everyone has done a great job. Vivek Obroei did an excellent job and it is Manju Warrier's best performance after How Old Are You. The punch dialogues in some scenes were also good. Kudos to Sujith Vaasudev as it is one of the best cinematography in Malayalam films. Overall, Lucifer is a must watch for Mohanlal and the incredible making. There is nothing extraordinary e See more Read all reviews
