It is not that indigestible off beat movie where a typical commercial movie audience would struggle to find out what is happening on screen. Kaliyachan, directed by Farook Abdul Rahiman depicts the life of poet P Kunhiraman Nair. Soaked in drama in almost every frame, the movie is a passable slice of biography that has… Continue reading Kaliyachan

Life of Josutty
Well they have given the warning that Life of Josutty from Jeethu Joseph won’t have any sort of twist and suspense similar to the last two films of the director. The movie would have worked big time if it had a relatable amount of life in it. Made on a highly melodramatic preachy platform, Life… Continue reading Life of Josutty
Kohinoor
A heist movie set in the year 1988, Vinay Govind’s second venture after Kili Poyi, Kohinoor is a non boring entertainer that lacks an exciting suspense and needs much more unpredictability. Through the scattered witty moments that work because of the performances, the movie manages to stay alive, but at the end of it all… Continue reading Kohinoor
Black Mass

I sort of felt that if… Continue reading Black Mass
Njan Samvidhanam Cheyyum

A making style that competes with mediocre short films and a script that has unbearable amount of… Continue reading Njan Samvidhanam Cheyyum
Ennu Ninte Moideen
After seeing the documentary R S Vimal made about Kanchanamala’s eternal love and also the emotionally high trailer, I was expecting an extended extremely dramatic visualization of the love story. But the movie surprised me by adding life to the melodrama and also by having a fair enough amount of humor in the narrative. With… Continue reading Ennu Ninte Moideen
Trisha Illana Nayanthara
If you just broke up with your girlfriend and is extremely mad at her, the latest G V Prakash Kumar film Trisha Illana Nayanathara “may” help you in releasing the frustration. That isn’t a compliment for the film btw, the movie is extremely stupid and is slightly more than what you call as nonsense. Written… Continue reading Trisha Illana Nayanthara
Maya
Keeping the audience engrossed to the screen throughout its runtime and explaining the suspense factor in a really captivating way is what is supposed to be the usual pattern of horror flicks. Maya directed by Ashwin Saravanan hasn’t tried to step out from this usual routine, but yes it has an emotional reason for the… Continue reading Maya
