I felt that the director intentionally packed dialogues in each and every corner of the movie. It has visual assistance with CGI but more than the gimmicks of visual effects the film swirled into dialogue to dialogue presentation. The movie lacks its core on the progression where it can't connect the emotion among the audience. The main problem relies on the script itself. I completely agree with the Visual Effects and Costume Design section but I don't know why the jury selected this film as the best feature one. It bagged the best feature film, Visual effects, and Costume design recognition at National Awards. The next thing that urge me to watch the film on the first day is the acclamation received for the film at the National awards. I expect that kind of frame in this film and he didn't disappoint me. As an admiring filmmaker, I look upon his films not because of the subject matter he discussed but because of those frames. Priyadarshan is a good-crafty director whose visuals have innate quality and freshness. Except for that tumult I went for the movie because of some of the factors.

All that tumult is only a matter of marketing or publicity. Actually, I didn't expect anything more from Marakkar because all the fuss that I'm talking about only has validity when the film gets released. The term 'expected' only refers to the fuss covered on all sides by filmmakers, news channels, and also among the fans. Just put aside the matter of history, the film Marakkar: Lion of Arabian Sea is not much catchy and has not reached the expected level for me. So we can't argue about the exact validation of the things that the film shows and the historical shreds of evidence portraying. When we heckle the traces of Marakkar's legacy at the verge of the freedom movement we get the clear idea that all the marks pointed in the history is totally not at all history but it is something mythical in context. The Zamorins governance, invasion of the Portuguese, etc are the noted historical connotations. The titular character, Kunjali Marakkar is a historical person (where the film's protagonist is Kunjali Marakar IV), and some of the elements flavored on the path of the story have that kind of historical significance.
