Script & Direction
First things first, Jenuse Mohammed should be appreciated for taking up a concept, which is completely new to the Malayalam cinema. A concept that involves science-fiction, horror, psychological and emotional elements. More importantly, such themes are too risky to handle since they might be exposed to the unwritten laws of logic. Nevertheless, the plot of 9, which has a whole lot of fictional elements, looks convincing and believable.
