Half an hour in to the movie, I was thinking and the guy in front of me was mumbling the same thing. Why doesn’t this dumb hero go and tell his mother to stop acting like an idiot. While watching Oru Murai Vanthu Paarathaya, the thought that frequently comes to your mind is the dumbness… Continue reading Oru Murai Vanthu Paarthaya

The intention is to preach the parents about the relevance of having a good communication with their kids. In a way it succeeds in conveying the idea, but the path taken is a bit too grand and a little hard to convince. Ajoy and Angelina are siblings who study in the same school. Ajoy is… Continue reading School Bus

Happy Wedding is one of those movies which should have been made as an entertainer short film. Elaborated unnecessarily for the sake of charmless fun, this movie is entertaining only because of one man; Sharaf U Dheen. With outdated misogyny template being used discretely, Happy Wedding is a wafer thin idea that got stretched. Hari… Continue reading Happy Wedding

With juvenile nature of content in those portions comprising of a usual filmy love story with no attraction, Mudhugauv can’t… Continue reading Mudhugauv

The latest Kunchako Boban starrer Valliyum Thetti Pulliyum Thetti somewhat felt like a fused version of Meesamadhavan and Amen. I am not comparing the movie with the above mentioned movies or making allegation that it’s a copy or something. The film has the similar premise of the Lal Jose movie (and a few more films… Continue reading Valliyum Thetti Pulliyum Thetti

When the second half of James and Alice started, I had this impression that the movie will take a lighter approach in presenting its idea. But after that very narrow phase of “Bruce almighty”ness the film went back to its teary dramatic phase and thus fails to create an emotional impact on the viewers. James… Continue reading James and Alice
