Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Adoor Gopalakrishan's masterful portrait of a man clinging on to his feudal way of life which parallels the disintegrating world outside his tharavadu (home), is a rat in the trap of his own making... Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Jimmy Cage Jimmy Cage Movie Reviews (YouTube) Adoor Gopalakrishnan is one of the most fascinating filmmakers in India and even though I liked his other films more, RAT-TRAP is still a complex and above all remarkably presented psychological drama. Rated: 7/10 Mar 27, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member WEB. Genial alegoría que enfoca, con una delicadeza muy exacta, tanto la evolución psicológica de sus personajes como su simbolismo social. Envuelve más y más a medida que avanza. / Genial allegory that focuses, with very exact delicacy, on the psychological evolution of its characters as well as their social symbolism. Gets more involving as it goes along. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
