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

Aamir Khan’s Talaash was one movie that disappoints you at some pivotal areas but when you rewind the entire content, everything in it makes sense. 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

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

If this was the real story of Silk Smitha, they should not have made this film; because the content of the movie is such a bizarre cliché. We have seen these kinds of films in the recent past like the bollywood films The Dirty Picture, Heroine and the Malayalam film Matinee. The new movie on… Continue reading Climax

A story that overflows with contents that are hard to sync in easily, that’s what I felt about director Siddique’s latest Malayalam movie Ladies and Gentleman starring super star Mohanlal. A predictable and simple one liner story with charmless suspense is told in a stretched out way with good humor and catchy performances. Mohanlal’s graceful… Continue reading Ladies and Gentleman

Well, an altered version of Benny P Nairambalam’s previous work Marrykundoru Kunjaadu. That’s what I felt about Dileep’s Vishu release Sound Thoma directed by hat trick hit maker Vyshak. It is a movie that is targeted for the audience who are there to laugh for the spontaneous humor. With a formula script that fails to… Continue reading Sound Thoma
