Our Rating : 3.25/5

After long wait. the most anticipated film of the year 'Charlie'  has opened to positive reviews.  Charlie is a romantic drama but it can't be compared with Premam or Ennu Ninte Moideen. It has its own  style. With less expectations , Charlie is a decent watch.
Charlie (Dulquer Salman) is a young man who leads a detached life. He loves to travel and wishes to live without any worries.  He leads a crazy and impulsive life.  The story goes through the view point of Tessa(Parvathy Menon) who elopes from her family as she doesn't wish to get married. She finds a shelter in Kochi. Tessa lived in a room which was earlier occupied by someone. His stuff in that room and one call from his creates curiosity in Tessa to find out who the previous occupant was. The film is Tessa's journey to find who Charlie actually is.

The film is not a complete fun film like 'ABCD'. It has its own dimensions.  The style of narration was good and the visuals were outstanding.  The climax was good but abrupt. Dulquer-Parvathy chemistry is added positive to the movie.

The film isn't a pacy one. It takes its own time to get into the track.

Performance

Dulquer as Charlie was brilliant. He could present the Charming character with ease. One of his best performance till date, Parvathy was good as curious Tessa. Her mature acting skills stole the show.  Aparna Gopinath, Nedumudi Venu ,Chemban Vinod, KPAC Lalitha, Tovino,  Soubin ,Neeraj were perfect in their roles.

Music

BGM was good . Songs were average ones.

Cinematography

Charlie is visually extravagant and the credit goes to cinematographer Jomon T John. He proved himself once again with his stunning visuals.

Script and Direction

Writer Unni R is successful in creating a fresh and simple love story. The way in which characters were introduced in the film created difference. The movie doesn't have any big elements of suspense but still engages the audience .  Martin Prakkat's direction was good and he could transform a good script into a better movie.

Verdict : Charlie is A Decent Watch ....

Rating : 3.25/5

Ezhu Sundara Rathrikal- An Average Feel Good Movie 

Director: Lal Jose

Cinematography:- Pradeesh

Starring:- Dileep,Rima..

Script:- James Albert

Our Rating:- 2.75/5

                                                                                               Ezhu Sundara Rathrikal is quite different from usual Dileep Flicks. That's what I felt after watching the movie. Actually 7 Sundara Rathrikal is a feel good movie from LalJose-Dileep combo. This is the 7th movie from this combo.

Aby (Dileep) is an ad film maker. He decides to marry Ann(Parvathy Nambiar) . He takes this decision finally after delaying it for 7 years thinking about his failed romance.He comes to know from his childhood friend Abid(Harisree Ashokan) that his ex-girlfriend Sini(Rima Kallingal) is living at the same place.Abi goes to Sini's house to invite her for his wedding. Sini is now married to boxer Alex (Murali Gopi) . Aby forgets a cigarette pack at her house which causes a lot of problems. Within 7 days before his marriage , can Aby solve this problem ? This forms the rest of the plot.

Ezhu sundara Rathrikal starts as a romantic comedy , turns into suspense drama genre and then it ends up without all those great impressions. It is entertaining in the firs half which contains elements of suspence,comedy & drama. But in the later half when the details are revealed, it loses control. The problem is due to the half baked script.

Performance

Dileep is the main attraction of the film. His timely comedy & expression are good. Rima & debutant Parvathi has done a neat job.Murali Gopi gives out a fine performance.

Technical Aspects

Cinematographer Pradeesh Varma's camera job is excellent.

Music

Music by Prashant Pillai is good & the two songs in the film are good. The BGM is also excellent. It dwells with the mood & need of the film.

Script

 Script by James Albert isn't a perfect one. It contains lot of loopholes. It is the half baked script that makes the film a bit down. His dialogues were good.

Direction

Lal Jose's Direction is what makes the film entertaining. Once again he takes an average script to a watchable flick.

Verdict :- It's A feel good movie. Different from Dileeps' earlier flicks.

Rating: 2.75/5

Things are fine till a brat Varun (Roshan) enters their life & spoils it. The rest of the film is engaging thrilling & emotional.Drishyam is surely a film that revolves around a family but it's much more than that. But the director Jeethu Joseph has managed to surprise the viewer with a completely different approach.It is a film without any artificiality & it engages the viewer with steady story telling.

The story doesn't offer anything new but the style in which it is made is surely awesome.

The film has an average first half which contains lot of family sequences for family audience. The second half was really thrilling & emotional. Lal Magic works out again in Kerala.
The first half of the film is like what we expect. But the second half is really excellent. What makes the film thrilling is its strong script & direction.

Perfect for all types of audience. A clean film. Must be a hit.

Performance
Mohanlal is the main attraction of the film. He acting was excellent as Georgekutty especially in some emotional moments.  Meena made a good come back. The child artists did their roles very beautifully. Kalabhavan Shajon's Sahadevan , the police constable was another notable character.  All other cast including Siddique ,Asha Sharath , Roshan etc do their roles perfectly.

Technical Aspects

Sujith Vasudev's camera has captured the beauty of the place. The visuals are too good. Ayoob Khan's editing is also good.

Music

There are two songs in this film. Both are good. Anil Johnson's music is good & also he deserves a special mention for the BGM of the film. 'Marivil ....' song in Drishyam has already become a hit.

Script & Direction

Jeethu Joseph once again establishes himself as a good director. His direction was superb. The script doesn't have much loopholes & it is very much entertaining. The strong script is the backbone of this film.

Verdict:- Drishyam is an entertainer which has elements of thrills, emotions & fun. Go watch it ....

SILENCE Malayalam Movie 2013 - An Average Thriller

Director : VK Prakash

Script : YT Rajesh

Music: Ratheesh Vegha

Cinematography : Manoj Kumar

Our Rating : 2.5/5  Average

Murder mysteries are always interesting & 2013 is an year which gifted many thrillers like Memories, Mumbai Police etc...Silence too is a thriller in which VKP & Mammootty works together for the first time.After 20-20 Mammootty essays the role of an advocate in this film.

Aravind finds that he should reopen a murder case & dig his own past which could ruin his career. Will Aravind succeed in solving this ? Answer is the rest of the film.

The film has an above average first half & an almost average second half.The intrigue & suspense is brilliantly built up initially. As the film moves to the second half , the plot gets a bit stuck & the thriller mode pales a bit.

Silence is a passable entertainer & an average thriller. The highlight of the film is Mammootty. Silence is a decent weekend watch for thriller lovers.

Performance

Mammooty as usual gave a superb performance as Aravind Chandrasekhar. Anoop Menon as Neel George IPS has done his role well. Pallvai Chandran was good. All the rest of the cast has given decent performances.

Music & BGM

Ratheesh Vegha's music and background score fails to create an impact and the background scores are unsuitable for few scenes.

Technical Aspects

Cinematography by Manoj Kumar Katoi is good & has nice moments to cheer. Editing is also good.

Screenplay

Script from YT Rajesh could have been better as the thriller thrills in the first half and fails to impress in the second half.

Direction

Direction from VKP is good. But he could have given much importance to the story line rather than some chase sequences & fight scenes.

Verdict :  Silence is an Average Watch for Thriller Lovers...!

Rating : 2.5/5

Punyalan Agarbathis Malayalam Movie Review

Director: Ranjith Sankar

Cinematography : Sujith  V                                      

Music : Bijibal

Starring: Jayasurya , Aju,                           Nyla...

Our Rating : 3.5/5

Director Ranjith Sankar comes up with his 4^th film ‘Punyalan Agarbathis’ which is  a comic entertainer & socially relevant film. Coming to his 4^th venture, it is different from his earlier films in the sense that it’s a comic entertainer but it has the elements of social importance & sattire.

Joy Thakklolkaran (Jayasurya) is a young enterprenuer from Thissur who wishes to be rich. He starts an insence stick factory & markets incense sticks named ‘Punyalan Agarbathis’  which is in fact made from elephant dung.He keeps himself afloat with the money his wife Anu(Nyla Usha) makes from her job where she has to work hard.Joy has a companion Greenu Sharma (Aju Vargheese) who considers Joy as his role model. Joy agreed to take elephant dung from the devaswom & later they disagree to give him what he needs since he is a Christian. He fights it out in the court with the help of his advocate Sai(Rachana Narayananankutty) while he tries to get elephant dung from other sources. He finally succeeds in the case . But all these were just a beginning . Things are yet to come.  

The film is suitable for all types of audience especially for the family audience. The Thrissur slang in the dialogues work out well in entertaining the people & the elements of sattire towards the present day society too works out well.The film do contain lot of things about social commitment & of course lot of funny moments to entertain us.

‘Punyalan Agarbathis’ is a perfect watch if you are not in a mood to dig out the very minute flaws which can be neglected.

Performance

Jayasurya is coming up with good roles & best performance. He is the winner of the show. It is his performance & dialogue which makes the film more lively. He renders able support to the script especially in handling the Thrissur Slang language & by rendering  beautiful performance.Nyla Usha was good as Anu.Sreejith Ravi ‘s performance was good & also T G Ravi’s. All the other cast did their roles in a very good manner which makes ‘Punyalan Agarbathis’ a colourful entertainer.

Music

Music from Bijibal renders ample support. The song  ‘Aashichavan..’ sung by Jayasurya has become a hit already. The background score entertains the audience further as it gives proper support to the mood of the film.The songs do arrive at the right places.

Technological Aspects

Sujith Vasudev’s cinematography & Lijo Paul’s editing was excellent. Sujith Vasudev captured the life of Thrissur in his camera.

Direction & Screenplay

The screen play was good which makes ‘Punyalan Agarbathis’ a neat watch. Ranjith Sankar in his 4^th films proves again with superb direction. Good Work Team ‘Punyalan Agarbathis’

Verdict: Nice Work.Good Entertainer,good humour & sattire.  Go watch it. You won’t be disappointed.

Rating :  3.5/5                  

After Celluloid , Kamal Comes With Nadan Which Highlights The History of Drama & Dramatists

Director :  Kamal

Music     :  Ouseppachan

Starring : Jayaram,Sajitha Madathil..

Script      : S Suresh Babu

Our Rating : 3.25/5 

After Celluloid - A Tribute to father of Malayalam Cinema , director Kamal comes with his new venture Nadan which zooms into the history of professional dramatists & a professional theatre artist. 

Devadas Sargavedhi (Jayaram) is a professional dramatist who had inherited his passion from his father Bharathan  (Hareesh Peradi). He runs a drama troup 'Sargavedhi' which was once a very famous drama troup which consisted of dedicated dramatists. He was a state award winning actor. Now they are in a not so comfortable position. Devadas , as husband is a failure.His wife Sudharma (Sajitha Madathil) left him taking with her , his two daughters.So his personal life too is off the track. There are people like KPAC Radhamani ( KPAC Lalitha), KPAC Abu backer (Chembil Ashokan) who still goes on with Sargavedhi but whereas people like Jyothi  ( Remya Nambeeshan) & GK (Joy Mathew) have moved to the world of cinema.All these form the plot of Nadan which mainly describes the life of Devdas as an artist & as a person.

Nadan of course is an appreciable work but if the script had been handled a bit more better way , the film would have been much engaging.There are lag at places & few unwanted elements. It becomes melodramatic towards the climax.There is nothing much in the movie for mass audience & it is a good watch for the others despite the lag.

All together Nadan is a good movie which has some flaws but the intention in making Nadan makes it a good watch.

Performance

Jayaram was good as Devdas. Sajitha Madathil also renders her full support through acting.KPAC Lalitha impresses us with her performance & others all tried to do their roles in a good manner.

Music

The background score suits the mood of the film but the songs won't last in our mind for long. Unlike the songs of celluloid, songs in Nadan is not much impressive.

Technical Aspects

Madhu Neelakandan have done a brilliant job in doing cinematography.Also the art director helped us to feel the atmosphere.

Screenplay

S Suresh Babu who have scripted Nadan could have taken much care to make Nadan , a much more better one.

Direction 

Kamal, as always does his direction part in a very good manner but if he had  given a bit more concentration on the script & made some changes , Nadan would have been an excellent one. Even though Nadan impresses to an extent, it won't gain space among Kamal's unforgettable movies.

Verdict:  Nadan as a Whole is Good Tribute to Dramatists. Impressive to an extent , but not                         extraordinary.

Rating :  3.25/5

Geethanjali Malayalam Movie Review 2013

Geethanjali Malayalam Movie Review. Geethanjali marks the return of Dr. Sunny in Manichithrathazhu after 2 decades. Audience has great expectation when the film belongs to veteran director Priyadarshan.Their expectations was not completely fulfilled by this film. As the director already said, Geethanjali is not a sequel to Manichithrathazhu. Geethanjali doesn’t make any comparison except the character of Dr. Sunny.

The story starts from Mumbai when Anoop (Nishan) & his good be Anjali (Keerthi Suresh) to Anjali’s traditional house Arakkal when he mother falls sick. She returns & meets her parents. But after she enters the house, something haunts her badly & she behaves abnormally.Series of unpredictable incidents take place in her life afterwards. Nishan with the help of Suresh Gopi(Cameo Role) invites Dr. Sunny (Mohanlal) to  look after the issue. He comes and examines the girl. He finds that the girl Anjali is the one who is haunted & not the huge mansion. He then finds the reason behind all this with good elements of humor, suspense & horror.

Geethanjali actually is a story of two twin sisters. Dr. Sunny doesn’t have much to do in Geethanjali more than being a psychiatrist. The horror works out in the first half & fails to impress in the second half. Geethanjali can be watched for once surely without a comparison with Manichithrathazhu.  This movies shows resemblance with a Kannada movie which itself was a copied one. Geethanjali is not as much as Manichithrathazhu but as an independent film, it can be watched for sure.

Performance

On the performance part Mohanlal tried well to impress the audience as Dr. Sunny but the limitations in the script makes him unable to be the old Dr. Sunny in  Manichithrathazhu though he is the same old funny Dr. Sunny. Debutant Keerthi Suresh wasn’t bad but her performance in the second half made the audience a bit unhappy but the climax made most of them happy again. Nishan was not bad. Innocent was good in his scenes. All others perfectly fit into their roles.

Music & BGM

There are only 2 or 3 songs in Geethanjali & Vidyasagar was fine in making the songs. The background score suited the mood of the film well & it entertained the audience.

Direction & Screenplay

Abhilash Nair’s screen play had lot of loopholes which could make the audience unhappy but Priyadarshan’s direction made the film a good one. The horror sequences were well shot & the audience was satisfied. But the writer & the director could have taken a bit more care in making Geethanjali a fascinating thriller.

Technical Aspects

Cinematography was excellently done by S. Tirru & the scenes were well shot. The camera work stands out.

Verdict:  All together Geethanjali is not the perfect horror-suspense thriller of all times but it can be watched once without any bore. Don’t go with much expectation. Watch it as a single film without comparing with Manichithrathazhu. You’ll definitely enjoy it.

RATING:  2.75/5
