The script of Swathanthriyam Ardharathriyil depends a lot on the execution and the movie feels like an appreciable effort because of that. You sort of tend to root for the making of debutant Tinu Pappachan as it looks sincere and thus Swathanthriyam Ardharathriyil becomes that engaging prison break film with a script that isn’t entirely… Continue reading Swathanthriyam Ardharathriyil
Baaghi 2
When you have an actor who doesn’t need a stunt double and can perform even better than the stunt men in the whole film along with dancing chops, why waste money on unimportant things like scripting and direction? After watching Baaghi 2, this was the only reason I could find that prompted Sajid Nadiadwala to… Continue reading Baaghi 2
Kuttanadan Marpappa

Hichki from Sidharth… Continue reading Hichki
Pacific Rim Uprising
The Kerala distributor of the movie Pacific Rim Uprising sensationalized the paper ad by calling it Transformers versus Godzilla. I don’t know whether the mind behind that caption got any chance to watch the movie prior to its release, but he or she was almost correct in my opinion. While the first one was a… Continue reading Pacific Rim Uprising
Sexy Durga aka S Durga
Sanal Kumar Sasidharan’s Sexy Durga aka S Durga can be called as a director’s movie as it has an upper hand in terms of the sheer making aspect. Sanal shares the opinion that cinema needn’t be a message driven thing and this movie also has no such on your face kind of preaching to its… Continue reading Sexy Durga aka S Durga
Sudani From Nigeria
The level of humanity in the nuanced and rooted story of Sudani from Nigeria is extremely heartening. Debutant Zakariya’s movie set in the backdrop of sevens football tournaments in Malappuram is ultimately a tale about compassion. Pepped up by natural humor and sensible sentiments, Sudani from Nigeria is definitely above the feel good mark. Majeed… Continue reading Sudani From Nigeria
