Abraham Ozler, the new thriller directed by Midhun Manuel Thomas, which pretty much marks a comeback of Jayaram, is a mixed-bag thriller that tries really hard to work on its generic beats. While Midhun may have said in the promotional interviews that the movie isn’t something similar to Anjaam Paathiraa, as a viewer, you can… Continue reading Abraham Ozler Review | A Mixed-Bag Thriller With Sporadic Moments of Excitement

Neru Review | An Emotional Courtroom Drama With Convenient Twists and Turns
If you look at this year’s Onam release RDX, we all know that the scene that showed the villains hurting that baby had a significant role in making the viewer root for the heroes. If you take out that scene from that movie, it would have been a huge task for the makers to keep… Continue reading Neru Review | An Emotional Courtroom Drama With Convenient Twists and Turns
Padmini Review | The Consistency in Humor Makes It an Enjoyable, Light-Hearted Comedy
Padmini, the new Malayalam film from Senna Hegde, works very well as this light-hearted comedy because of the way the writing places conflicts and characters in the screenplay. Constructed as the efforts of a 36-year-old man to get married, this Kunchako Boban starrer is consistently humorous, and the situations they have created in the narration… Continue reading Padmini Review | The Consistency in Humor Makes It an Enjoyable, Light-Hearted Comedy
Pranaya Vilasam Review | An Enjoyable Drama With Scope for Refinement

Suraj, an aspiring… Continue reading Pranaya Vilasam Review | An Enjoyable Drama With Scope for Refinement
Raangi Review | A Thriller That Mistakes Stupidity for Journalistic Curiosity
Story credit for the movie Raangi is given to director AR Murugadoss. And it takes little time for us to realize why Murugadoss opted not to move forward with this story. The supposed-to-be anti-war movie written and directed by M Saravanan is a colossal mess that misunderstands its central character’s stupidity as a journalistic curiosity.… Continue reading Raangi Review | A Thriller That Mistakes Stupidity for Journalistic Curiosity
Mike
The one-liner concept of the film Mike has noble intentions for sure. A girl deciding to opt for gender affirmation surgery is the theme of “Mike.” Even though it isn’t following the same trajectory as Njan Marykutti, Mike is confused about how to place the theme in its story. When you have to create a… Continue reading Mike
Aviyal
Aviyal wants to be this eventful coming-of-age story about a man. But its peripheral approach and the desperation to look complex somewhere makes it an unimpressive script. It shows the travel of a man from his teens to early thirties. But the movie wants to cover so many bullet points that it forgets to invest… Continue reading Aviyal
Super Sharanya
The texture of Super Sharanya is very much similar to Thanneer Mathan Dinangal, the first film of director Girish AD. But in terms of the canvas, Girish has taken a step forward. Unlike TMD, which focused on a thin premise, Super Sharanya is almost a coming-of-age comedy with a young teenager at its center. Sharanya… Continue reading Super Sharanya
