Review of Surongo

Surongo (2023)
6/10
Good story that deserved a little more compact & better execution
1 July 2023
SURONGO primarily comes with 2 acts...an introduction of a greedy wife, Moyna; how she manupulates and abuses her husband, Masud for money. In the 2nd act, the titular & more interesting 'Surongo' parts begins and I hoped this would get more focus from the beginning on a back and forth manner. Technically Rafi's film shines in the major areas i.e. Cinematography, lighting, background scores (mostly). The adult contents could have been handled more skillfully rather than throwing some random intimate scenes on the screen. Nisho & Shahiduzzaman Salim delivered best with their respective well written character arc. Though Toma Mirza did a competent job with her role, specially in dialogue delivery but with her "glamorous look" she felt kind of miscast for this part of a rural, deceitful femme fatale at times. The best part of the movie was its ending that will surely satisfy most of the moviegoers.
