Shibu Gangadharan's directorial debut 'Praise The Lord' based on Zachariah's novel of the same name is just an average feel good family entertainer which entertains most of the audience.

He lives there looking after his properties. He is a very simple man and he loves his wife very much. Joy's childhood friend Advocate Sunny (Mukesh) asks Joy for a help. He asks Joy to hide Samkutty(Ahmed Siddique) and Annie(Akansha Puri) eloped without the permission of their parents.Joy agrees to hide them. Samkutty is a firm believer in God while Annie is a modern spoiled brat whom he meets at Delhi.They fell in love with each other.Annie wishes to enjoy unmarried family life. They are later threatened by Joy's father Kunjutty(Joy Mathew) and they move from there. How Joy and others struggle to hide them and help them live together forms the rest of the plot.
Altogether 'Praise The Lord' is a usual average family entertainer which can be enjoyed if approached with less expectations.The first half is very much interesting with good jokes and performances. The second also is good despite the lag during the beginning of the second half.
Watch it with less expectations. It won't disappoint you. The film may appeal to all sections of audience.
Performance
Mammootty performed very well as Joy .He is the main attraction of the film. His expressions , dialogues and mannerisms as Joy was excellent. Reenu Mathews as Ancy is also good. Ahmed Siddique did a neat job as Samkutty. Akansha Puri as Annie was just fine. Rest of the characters did justice to their roles and rendered enough support.
Music
Music by Shaan Rahman was good. The two songs 'Innaleyolam' and 'sharon vaniyil' were good. Background score by Bijibal was fine.
Technical Aspects
Even though not excellent, Pradeep Nair's camera work was nice. He has captured the locations of Kottayam in a beautiful manner.
Screenplay and Direction
Screenplay by TP Deverajan based on Zachariah's novel was fine. Direction by debutant Shibu Gangadharan ,was also good. The film is a good and enjoyable family entertainer.
Verdict :- An Light-Hearted and Simple Family Entertainer...Go with less expectations...
Rating :- 3/5
