Review Of Penalty

Penalty is a classic global quality sports film. If you have watched the trailer you will know that the film is surrounded around a boy named Lukram from northeast India. The film revolves around his struggles such as racial problems, struggle with language and teammates.

The story is based on true events. And director Shubham Singh has successfully brought this true story on to the big screen. The music directors, Siddhant Madhav, and Mannan Munjal have carried a high feel throughout the movie. The football scenes are absolutely realistic and don’t make you feel that it is staged.

And finally, the performance of the lead cast, Kay Kay Menon has given one of his best performances as the coach, we have seen him as a coach in ABCD, but this is on a whole new level. The movie is must watch.
