Movie Review: Hotel California



Hotel California:



A
fter two different movies with average results Aji John has tried his luck with a fun movie Hotel California. A movie with serious story shown in childish way ready to make everyone laugh from start.

About the movie:
"Hotel California" deals with lives of many which is ready to be turned in two days. The story shows the scandals that happen around us and life of different people knowingly or unknowingly becoming a part of it. Airport Gimmy is a main pimp and a conman will do all wrongs for making money is the lead in movie. Four people coming in same flight from mumbai to cochin has different but all scandal things to do in kochi. Awaiting them in kochi are a bunch of people from terrorists to conman Gimmy and from the moment they land in kochi things get to new turns as a confusion begins when people receiving each picks wrong ones. The movie all through goes in funny manner, most serious dialogues ending up in comedy. And different stories of different people gets linked in together and get it into series of Unfortunate but funny events. The story openly shows how scandals happen and filthy mind of people and everyone in run for making money and also in the end shows humanity still exists.

The direction part of Aji john was surely not worth it and needed to improve.
Jithu Damodar as Cinematographer made each frame stylish and colourful but unwanted slow motions each time we see Jimmy (jayasurya) made it boring though.
Editing by Xian was ok but could have done much better with more dragging of simple shots.
Music by Shaan Rahman did not keep up with the movie and always made some weird tunes not best for the shots and didnt give what was expected from him.
Script by Anoop menon was good but i think it went through wrong hands.

About the Cast:
Jayasurya as Airport Jimmy has done excellent job and the major stylish role in his entire carrier till now.
Shanker played the role of Aby Mathew a flirty business man surprise us with his way of dialogues and acting.
Anoop Menon as Superstar Premsagar did his role perfect as usual.
Krishna as Roshan bodyguard of Bollywood superstar did his part well.
Saiju Kurup did dual as Tarun Singh son of politician convicted in 2G scam and also Rafeeq Ahammed a poor NRI was did the best of all.
Dwani as Swapna a model/actress did her part well.
Jojo as Barthchandran IPS had the best dialogues in the movie and could be a break in his carrier.
Nandu and "Comedy Festival" group surely makes the movie fun filled by their kidnapping story.
Mariya Roy had a simple part and kept it going.
Aparna Nair too did hert part ok.
Manikuttan as police officer did his job well.
And many other characters did their part good. but made it felt like there were too much of them than needed.

Should You Watch:
The Movie has got many filthy dialogues and story of scandal and unwanted exposure of women surely made the film 'A' certified and could think twice before going for this with family. Otherwise a fun film need not take anything seriously while seeing the movie. For all Jayasurya Fans this is a must watch movie. Entertainment, good camera works fun filled story will make us entertained. But for story lovers and good creation lovers this is not the movie to watch. A good time pass if you got lot of free time !!!
And as always its your final decision to watch it or not.

My rating: 2.5/5
