Towards the climax, there is this impeccable performance of Biju Menon in the movie Anarkali that will surely make you laugh out loud because of the comedy timing the actor shows. Even after having the aid of some superb technical backup, Anarkali from Sachy can’t really establish itself as an eternal tale. With equal weightage… Continue reading Anarkali

Ottaal
Ottaal is very much that considerably compromised art house film which emphasize on a particular idea without the verbal explanation. The success of the movie is actually in creating that emotional suffocation in our mind seeing that lonely hopeful child. With a casting that couldn’t create a charm on screen, Ottaal is a haunting tale… Continue reading Ottaal
Ben
Coming from Vipin Atley, the man who wrote the torrent blockbuster Homely Meals, Ben in terms of story idea is very much similar to its competitor Salt Mango Tree. The difference is in the treatment. While Salt Mango Tree went for the humorous parent perspective, Ben focuses more on the melodramatic child perspective. With scattered… Continue reading Ben
Salt Mango Tree
Just like that recent Jayasurya starrer jilebi, Salt mango tree is also one simple fun film that has abundant comedy to keep you entertained and a not so convincing preaching which kind of serves the purpose of having a message. With Biju Menon single handedly carrying the movie to a different level with his comedy… Continue reading Salt Mango Tree
Rani Padmini
Rooted characters, blended humor and also the visual portrayal of the enlightenment one gets after taking a risky, lively journey. All these makes the latest Aashiq Abu film Rani Padmini an absorbing cinema that ultimately tells you to be yourself and take that leap of faith. It is not Thelma & Louise and looking at… Continue reading Rani Padmini
Kanal
Towards the climax, Kanal tries to get in to that diplomatic region defending the situation of a criminal. I thought the final product would be something like a Badlapur where the story will show a transition of a character. But unfortunately the film fails to deliver some variety in that aspect and ends up as… Continue reading Kanal
Lord Livingstone 7000 Kandi
On a very basic level, Anil Radhakrishnan Menon’s Lord Livingstone 7000 Kandi is a low budget wannabe “Avatar”. The idea was to inspire us to fight for the nature. The director may not have succeeded in creating that feel, but from the making perspective, Mr. Menon has really pushed the envelope to create something visually… Continue reading Lord Livingstone 7000 Kandi
Amar Akbar Anthony
Expectations weren’t that high about Nadirshah’s debut venture as a director, Amar Akbar Anthony as the trailers and teasers looked like something very typical and outdated. But I have to say that Nadirshah has managed to understand the pulse of the audience and within the “not so amusing” plot, he manages to bring out some… Continue reading Amar Akbar Anthony
