Njan Marykutty from Ranjith Shankar Jayasurya team is more like an informative movie like Toilet Ek Prem Katha or Padman. The ultimate sentiment you have towards the movie is positive and that isn’t really because of the cinematic craft it shows, but mostly because of the subject it addresses. Just like how a superstar like… Continue reading Njan Marykutty

Abhiyude Kadha Anuvinteyum
For an argument, the makers of the movie Abhiyude Kadha Anuvinteyum (Abhiyum Anuvum) can say that the film sort of addresses the troubles of living in a patriarchal society. But ultimately it’s a movie and needs something fresh or interesting to hold its audience. The bilingual directed by BR Vijayalakshmi is a terribly made melodrama that… Continue reading Abhiyude Kadha Anuvinteyum
Kuttanpillayude Sivarathri
When you kind of have two narratives within one film, it’s important how you merge both of them. Kuttanpillayude Sivarathri directed by Jean Markose has a bit of problem in merging its two narratives convincingly. Having said that, it’s not like the two plots stays isolated. Both narratives are executed neatly, one with emphasis on… Continue reading Kuttanpillayude Sivarathri

When Malayalam cinema got shifted from rural to urban stories there was a repetitive feel to most of the stories set in the village backdrop. There were textures and nuances in all those vintage movies which made us love the characters and landscapes. Premasoothram directed by Jiju Ashokan who made an impression with the movie… Continue reading Premasoothram
Naam

The nostalgia and campus memories work to an extent. But post that it’s usual and a little too ambitious. The idea… Continue reading Naam
Kaamuki
Binu S who made his debut with an impressive movie titled Ithihasa, went on to make another film Style which was criticized heavily and some people made a remark that it would have been a financially feasible idea in an industry like Telugu. It seems like those criticism has not bothered the director much and… Continue reading Kaamuki
B. Tech
The movie that came to my mind immediately after watching Mridul Nair’s debut film B. Tech was his Guru VK Prakash’s movie Nirnayakam. I wasn’t a big fan of Nirnayakam as it stretched too much around the issue it was trying to address. Much like that, B. Tech also has a socially relevant issue at… Continue reading B. Tech
Ee Ma Yau
The last 20 minutes of the movie Ee Ma Yau is perhaps the perfect example for breathtaking film making. My eyes were glued to the screen, I was able to understand the pain of Eeshi and it all ended in a fabulous visual. Set in the backdrop of a funeral, Ee Ma Yau explores human… Continue reading Ee Ma Yau
