Film making is a process which should always change according to the time, technology and sensibility of audience. “The King and The Commissioner” directed by Shaji Kailas and written by Renji Panikker is a movie that comes out with an outdated cliche style of story telling. The old fire of Joseph Alex and Bharath Chandran… Continue reading The King and The Commissioner

Ordinary
Debutant director Sugeeth’s ORDINARY is a movie that promises to be extra ordinary but ends up being a typical malayalam drama which in these days can be called as Ordinary. The typical malayalam family movie feel the movie has got through various promotions has helped the movie indeed in making it a crowd puller at… Continue reading Ordinary
Kahaani
“Kahaani”, directed by Sujoy Ghosh is an awesome thriller. A film that proves you dont want big bang banners, overdose of style and huge star cast to make a thriller. A beautifully structured engaging thriller. I cant disclose too much about the movie. Because even a mere outline of the story itself can be a… Continue reading Kahaani
Karmayogi
Karmayogi, the Malayalam adaptation of Shakespear’s Hamlet is a movie that has some content which has relevance in these days, but due to the making style it fails to reach the audience.

But unfortunately the script doesnt have that spark to ignite the audience. The movie is about a girl… Continue reading Thalsamayam Oru Penkutty
NIDRA
Sidharth Bharathan’s first directorial venture NIDRA is a finely crafted movie. A movie that will haunt us for some time. Eventhough its a remake, the film is not an exact copy of the older one. The style has been changed to suit the modern way of film making. With almost all frames in the movie… Continue reading NIDRA
Ee Adutha Kaalathu
“Ee Adutha Kaalathu” directed by Arun Kumar is a superb satirical thriller. This movie belongs to that class of small movies which made big impact in the box office. The star of the movie is basically the interesting screenplay. A script that goes through many emotions, many class of people in the same society, the… Continue reading Ee Adutha Kaalathu
