A Few Raised Eyebrows
While many fans were thrilled, some found the ‘Patriot’ teaser lacking. One user sharply asked, “Seriously asking, is this how you make a teaser in which the BIGMs of Malayalam cinemas are uniting together?? Have some shame #Patriot makers!! Weak BGM, worst cuts, and bad color grading!” They called it a “flat teaser” and lost hope because the makers seemed to lack dedication. Another fan added, “Patriot teaser is underwhelming, not exactly a hype raiser. Even Mammootty and Mohanlal’s presence didn’t elevate it, and Sushin’s score feels weak. The action sequences, however, do look solid.”
