Avarude Ravukal

Story telling in cinema becomes interesting when a director takes a convincing narrative style to tell a story. Sometimes they experiment with it and sometimes they choose the best suitable one. In the case of Avarude Ravukal, the second directorial venture of Shanil Mohammed who earlier co directed Philips and the Monkey pen, the treatment… Continue reading Avarude Ravukal

Gold Coins

Gold Coins directed by Pramod G Gopal tries desperately to be an earnest movie that tries to spread a positive message to the children. You can’t really blame the intent of the movie. But the problem is within the process of conceiving this idea in an effective way. I saw the movie with a minimal… Continue reading Gold Coins

Careful

The good thing about the Kannada movie U Turn was that it stayed close to the female lead of the film and added an element of supernatural activities very effectively. Even after being a social preach about obeying traffic rules, the treatment and the ghost factor made U Turn an engaging watch. When it comes… Continue reading Careful

Adventures of Omanakuttan

After watching Adventures of Omanakuttan, I had this feeling that the content would have worked very effectively if it was a digital series. There is a mystery behind Omanakuttan and his character which is revealed through many characters that come in to his life. But the problem is that the film takes an exhausting time (almost… Continue reading Adventures of Omanakuttan

The new Kannan Thamarakkulam film Achayans written by Sethu in a way repeats the same mistakes of Cousins and is almost as torturous as that movie was. With a screenplay trying squeeze… Continue reading Achayans

Godha

When story dominates over stars, the movie eventually becomes more engaging and that is what has happened with Godha, the new movie directed by Basil Joseph. Basil made his debut with an out and out comedy film Kunjiramayanam and this time he sort of extends his trademark humor to a heartening story of chasing and… Continue reading Godha

Ramante Edanthottam

Ramante Edanthottam is partially preachy for sure. But the theme of the movie touches an issue that seems to be very important in the busy life style of these days. Made as a woman’s self discovery journey by breaking the notions of patriarchy, this movie has discrete situations which have a likeable philosophical tone. Malini… Continue reading Ramante Edanthottam

Lakshyam

The credit given to Jeethu Joseph in the movie Lakshyam is of a script writer. But the debut venture of Anzar Khan has close similarities with Jeethu Joseph’s way of narrating thrillers. The film is about two prisoners who accidentally escaped from prison. Even though it has an interesting twist in the mid way, Anzar… Continue reading Lakshyam
