Director M Padmakumar’s much awaited romantic drama “Orissa” is sadly an overdose of drama. In an attempt to narrate an eternal love story on screen, they failed to root the characters into the plot. The most important thing in a love story is indeed the chemistry between the pair and also the depth of the… Continue reading Orissa

Well, they have sent out the right signal through promos and songs. Alphonse Putharen’s “Neram” is an entertaining one time watch film that scores for its making. The content of the film does not have many surprises to acknowledge it as a unique venture. But the overall placement of humor in the narrative makes this… Continue reading Neram

Director Akku Akbar’s Bharya Athra Pora is a watchable preaching on screen. The film mainly focuses on making people realize about their roles and responsibilities in family life. But the frequent exaggeration and the cliché dramatic style makes the movie an average one in terms of making. The plot here revolves around the life of… Continue reading Bharya Athra Pora

If you are someone who just can’t tolerate a movie like Trivandrum Lodge, then Hotel California may not be the right choice for you. Well the smallest description for Hotel California is that it’s the nonsense fun version of Trivandrum Lodge. The content will remind you about those old Priyadarshan comedies and a few new… Continue reading Hotel California

In the case of director Rosshan Andrrews’ latest movie Mumbai Police, it took almost a day (my bad) for me to sync in all those minute details Bobby and Sanjay… Continue reading Mumbai Police

The unconventional off beat style used for AKAM is not something new for us. But the question I found asking myself is how appropriate that style was to this kind of a theme. Based on Malayattoor Ramakrishnan’ famous work “Yakshi”, this film from Shalini Usha Nair is something that lacks clarity. The vague memories of… Continue reading Akam

Something difficult to convey is conveyed in a somewhat convincing way. That’s what I felt about director K B Venu’s August Club starring Rima Kallingal, Murali Gopi and Praveen Anidil. A theme that typically goes to steamy scenes and severe drama has been rendered in a better way. The plot here revolves around Savithri, who… Continue reading August Club

After making two relatively impressive action movies, director Diphan takes a u turn and tries to go for the humor track. But sadly just like his senior Shaji Kailas tasted bitterness with Madirasi, Diphan also fails miserably to handle a good theme which was written immaturely. Same old predictable jokes and some unbaked exaggerations about… Continue reading SIM
