I don’t really know the exact definition of the so called mass films and I believe everyone have their own version of its definition. Directed by debutant Ajai Vasudev, RajadhiRaja starring megastar Mammootty is packaged very nicely as a festival entertainer. It’s true that it has all the clichés we have seen in some films… Continue reading RajadhiRaja

In the beginning of the film, they have asked the audience to switch off their mobile phone and logic. However, asking us to imagine USA as a glorified Kerala was something that was beyond the territory of “switching off logic “. With only dialogue humor working out in scattered portions, Peruchazhi from director Arun Vaidyanathan… Continue reading Peruchazhi

It is the state committee meeting of emotionless actors and certain makers who are stuck in the past. John Paul Vaathil Thurakkunnu from director Chandrahasan is a great example of shoddy film making. There isn’t a single scene that makes an impression on the viewer and by the time you finish it you will definitely… Continue reading John Paul Vaathil Thurakkunnu

There is a scene in the film Munnariyippu where our central protagonist C K Raghavan explains his philosophy or I should rather say his perspective about independence. To enjoy this film to its best, I think everyone should focus on the depth of that definition. Munnariyippu is a brilliantly scripted film that discusses a story… Continue reading Munnariyippu

The kind of comments that came from the audience after watching Njan Steve Lopez made me realize how badly the “entertainers” have damaged the brains of the common man. For those who like to indulge in cinema, Njan… Continue reading Njan Steve Lopez

Madhav Ramadasan’s previous flick Melvilasam was an extremely good cinema that used the drama and emotions to a great level which took the viewer to that atmosphere and think from the characters perspective. In comparison to that cinema, the director hasn’t reached that level of intensification. But with very socially relevant subject dipped in a… Continue reading Apothecary

Avatharam directed by veteran film maker Joshiy is a time travelling experience. A story that can be considered as a castle of cliche is made in a ridiculously funny way and the kind of fun it offers is from the audience comments rather than the film’s irritating content. Except for the good cinematography and fairly… Continue reading Avatharam

It’s a very typical Mammootty film that I believe matches with the expectations of fans of the star rather than the admirers of the actor. Manglish directed by Salam Bappu won’t bore you and it won’t make you excited. With some slick dialog humor in the narrative, Manglish is a onetime watch. Malik Bhai is… Continue reading Manglish
