‘I, Nobody’ movie review: An unconventional thriller that fumbles in the final act

The film 'I, Nobody,' directed by Nissam Basheer, is reviewed as an unconventional thriller that starts strong but falters in its final act. The movie explores themes of redemption and the negative societal impact of sensationalist YouTube channels.
Why it matters
The film reflects contemporary anxieties regarding the influence of unverified digital media and social media-driven controversies.
How far would a fallen man go for redemption? If one were to ask Rajeevan ( Prithviraj Sukumaran ), the protagonist of Nissam Basheer’s, I, Nobody , he would probably say: from one extreme, reckless act to another. Consequently, the film also takes one on a rollercoaster series of events, which are intriguing and unconventional up to a point until they turn chaotic misfires.
The review offers a subjective critique of a film's artistic merits, which is standard for cultural journalism.
