Movie Review: Thank You

Thank you:

V.K.Prakash with his 3rd movie "thank you is a suspense thriller genre one based on social issues against women harassment.

About the movie:
The story is about a person who comes in trivandrum with some specific purposes. He travels from place to place and creates problem by threatening about police that he has planned for a series of blasts around the city. The police is searching for this "mysterious man" and media are utilizing this for their profit on the other hand. The movie slowly reveals the reasons behind the mysteries of this mysterious man. The film is goes in a trilling way towards the climax. 
V.K.P has always experimented with different genre, style and everything, some of them was not the best but this was very different and a social relevant subject surely did great.
Arun lal's story was very much relevant with the current social systems have left us with many questions to answer.
Cinematographer Aravind Krishna has shown the beauty within in trivandrum city and with sorts of experiments in camera works has done well.
Babu Rathnam Uthara with editing kept it perfect.
Music by Bijilal was impressive and the songs are pretty good to hear.

About the Cast:
Jayasurya has been impressive all through the year with some brilliant performances and he has continued the saga.
Sethu as commissioner was impressive with his fast language skills and tactical officer he was spot on.
Kailash as SI didnt had much of a part but kept it realistic.
Honey Rose as Jayan's wife played her part well.
Tini Tom, Mukundan, Saiju Kurup, Sudheer Karamana, Mridul, Aishwayra Devan and many others played their part well.
The movie was very much hero centered and did not had much space for other actors to do much, everyone kept their part of role well and casting was spot on.

Should you Watch:
Another experiment from V.K.P with a strong, bold and social relevant story from Arun lal the movie ends asking a lot of questions to the community and the views of each person right now about the social issues like harassment towards women and many other things. The film lack entertainment and is dry throughout. But surely will make us guessing throughout the movie and never gets off the pace. Movie surely is must watch to all because we need to think about the questions movie raises in the end. Watch it for a good script, nothing else. and don't see it if you are in a mood for comedy and masala entertainments. I loved this movie for it was true and bold. And as usual the final decision is yours.

Movie Review: Left Right Left

Left Right Left:

Arun Kumar Aravind, Murali Gopi team is back with Left Right Right- Revolution is homemade is a social drama and best of its kind.

About the movie:
The movie deals with story of few people such as SI K.P.Jayan (Indrajith), Roy Joseph (Murali Gopi) a leftist, Anitha(Lena) his wife, Jennifer (Remya Nambeeshan) a nurse and many others who face lot of problems in their life and somehow deals with it by their own way. Roy joseph so called "cheguvera Roy" by his friends is a true heart leftist. He is unhappy about the way of communism in the party but self consoled because of his incapability and limits but always try his best to make it corruption free the way he can. Anitha his wife working guest lecturer for journalism is the best support for him. She has lot of responsibilities to do and is always worried about her husband. Sub Inspector Jayan is a very rude police officer who is corrupted and a very angry man but is very sentimental when it comes to his family.He lives with his mother upstairs of Roy's home. He has a reason to live there. That is Anitha, Roy's wife looks like his elder sister, who died when he was small because the family could not pay for her treatment at the right time. This incident also ruined his childhood as he comes to a conclusion that, to live properly either you should be a police officer or you should have plenty of money. Also he loves a nurse named Jennifer who also resembles someone he cannot forget from his childhood memories.Jennifer is married and has a child and is trying to get out of marriage because her husband's abuse towards her and child. She needs a man's help and she acts as if she loves him for her own interests. One day two devotees of party (played by Sudheer Karamana and Sreejith Ravi) who are also angry with going on corruption and wants change in the party who also started a new Newspaper named "The Communist" finds a big corruption done by the leader Sahadevan. He is very much powerful leaderwho never allows someone to stand in his way or the party. Roy knows it would be suicidal to go against him and seeks the help of SR the other leader of Left party who Roy has a bit faith left. He assure to help him by raising the issue by his way. After the news been printed in the paper the things turn dramatically and from there we could see the black side of Red flagged party and how they deals with their own members if they raise their voice against them.

 In the recent past there has been many movies about the politics but i would say Arun Kumar Aravindh has kept it a step ahead of all.
Murali Gopi with a breath taking script has amazed me and truly he will raise his fathers name for sure. Lets hope the story of the movie doesn't make controversies when our Left leaders see it.
Cinematography buy Shehnad Jalaal has been spot on for the way the story should be narrated.
Editing by Arun Kumar was brilliant and spot on.
Music by Gopi Sundar was perfect to tell and the songs were very dramatic and meaningful and truly kept a communist thinking.

About the Cast:
Indrajith as S.I. Jayan has done his part brilliant as usual and he keeps on amazing me doing different roles in brilliant manner.
Murali Gopi as Roy Joseph again was brilliant and the way he presents his role really reminds us of his legendary father.
Lena as Anitha made her role beautiful and realistic and she proves how versatile she is.
Remya Nambeesan as Jennifer kept her role brilliant and has a negative touch but still will love her.
Sethulakshmi as Jayan's mother with her dialectic ways will make us laugh hard.
Vijayaraghavan as SR kept it spot on to the role.
Hareesh Peradi as Sahadevan was more of a surprise with his portrayal. He sure is actor needed to be more exposed.
Sudheer Karamana and Sreejith Ravi also made their role out standing.
Jagadish, Suraj, Mamookoya, Baiju, Saiju Kurup, Anusree and many others with small and decent roles played their part well and will have to give credit to the casting of the movie because it is spot on.

Should You Watch:
Watching the movie i could not say of the script of the movie is communist or anti communist, whatever the movie sure can be related to real life and current affairs in kerala politics for sure. The movie may not be fun filled but a true communist movie showing the real cruelty behind the smiling faces of our political leaders and surely questions the system of left atheists and their way of governance. The movie is a must watch for left believers. Sure a film watchable with family and needed to be watched by young bloods who give their life for politicians and leaders. A true and Bold Movie and relevant one. The only drawback i think is the drag in the second half which has few entertainment scenes. Kudos to all the crew behind the movie and the words "Revolution is Homemade" is stiffened and shown in the best way.

 My Rating: 4.5/5

One day two of them Sebastian ad Angel finds out they are in love.

The problem is much bigger because Angel is the sister of four notorious criminal brothers Michael(Lal), Father Cochin(Suresh Krishna), Martin(Amith Chackalakal), Antony(Hasim). Still the friends decide to take Seban to marriage home to meet his Angel and the next day Seban finds Angel in their home and he couldnot remember what happened last night as he was in hangover and story turns into a whole new level because the marriage is stopped and the brothers starts looking for their much loved sister and seban and his friends now think what all happened was not needed but cannot be undone too.

Lal Jr., Jean Paul has done pretty good debut with a familiar story to all youngsters but narrated in simple and childish way which has been very effective.
Cinematography by Alby was pretty good and kept it with the new trendy movies, surely made kochi look beautiful and watch out for the under sea shots.
Editing by Rateesh Raj was cool and did good with awesome BG and was spectacular to watch.
Music and BG by Deepak Dev was spot on and was the best for trendy movies. but again he is said to be copied a song form Bob Marley's and Far East Movement's together.

About the cast:
Asif ali as Seban did his job with ease and has many similarities to his last character in "kili Poyi"
Bhavana as Angel was beautiful to watch and could see an experienced actress in screen still doing it fresh.
Sreenath Bhasi as Abu will steel your heart with his cute expressions and awesome  dialogue deliveries in kochi lingo.
Balu as Ambro was another freak character from kochi and could be seen usual in kochi was awesome to watch and was spot on with his character.
Baburaj as Fernando will make us laugh through out the movie with his horrid english even in the worst circumstances.
Archana Kavi as Sara Ambro's sis with a secret love did a good.
Lal as Micheal was the hotspot of the movie was brilliant and kept it in style through out the movie.
Suresh Krishna, Amith Chackalakal, Hasim as Lal's brother did awesome with their characters.
The total star cast of the movie was spectacular and was always spot on with their own characters. Kudos to the team.

Should you watch:
Honey bee- its tripping is fun filled thriller with childish way of narration which will keep us entertained all through the movie. With some Filthy dialogues and lot of beep sounds think twice going for it with your family. But for youth its a tripping fun filled movie. Also with the chemistry of Asif and Bhavana which seemed to be worked out well we could see a good love story and the final Smooch is very much welcomed ;) Scene aanu buddy!!!!
and as always the final decision is yours...!!!

Mathew has already asked her parents to marry her and they agreed but after his job loss her father loses faith in mathew and decides to get out out of this marriage. shortly due to his unemployment he could not pay back Vatti Raja's money in time and he gives Mathew a last day to do. In the day he has to give money within 5 o'clock. Unfortunately the same day Jeena decides to leave her house due to his fathers decision to make her marry another one and she asks Mathew to come and pick him. Mathew at last finds the money and he plans to give it to Vatti Raja and then pick her up. But things get twisted from there. and the story gets into adrenaline run from there.

Director Alphonse Putharen did his debut with an ordinary and told story but presented in beautiful way that never made it boring to watch.
Cinematography Anand C. Chandran was exclusive and fresh and made every scene spectacular to watch.
Editing by the director Alphonse Putharen was spot on and was the best amoung the recent released films.
Music by debutant Rajesh Murugesan was awesome and went through the flow of the movie.


About the Cast:
Nivin Pauly as Mathew did his part well and another impressive role after Thatahin Marayathu surely is a promise to Malayalam industry.
Nazriya as jeena played her part well and would make us happy with her cute looks and love expressions was the best.
Simhaa as the Vaati Raja was the best in the movie. He made it perfect and made his character spot on.
Lalu Alex as Johnykutty Jeena's father gets hilarious sometimes and not ready to lose in front of anyone did great with his role.

Also many other characters like the trio thief friends, mathew's friend. Vatti raja's Bodyguards, Rayban's Bodyguards, Auto Driver... Many of them had small roles bu played the best way.
Totally in the star cast which was lead by Nivin was won by the villan and other characters more than Nivin and Nazriya.

Should you Watch:
"Neram" is not an untold story, it does not have a spectacular story, ends like a fairy tale and less realistic but the 1 hour 50 minutes movie guarantee us many funny moments to laugh and gives us an adrenaline run and would not be a waste of money or Your "NERAM". Even if doesnot like this you could atleast say "Neram randu thrathil undu. nalla neravum chitha neravum. chitha nerathinu sheham urapayittum oru nalla neram varum.."
Kudos to the team behind it and i surely will watch it again but always the final decision is yours...!!! :D

Movie Review: Hotel California

Hotel California:

After 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

Antony solves the case but on the way after solving and before telling to anyone he gets in to an accident and losses his memory. The story develops from there as Antony tries find about himself and his past and by that way solve his best friend's murderer once again.

Rosshan Andrrews has always traveled in different path of movie making and he has taken this movie to another level.
The story by Bobby-Sanjay has been pretty new to Malayalam movies and of course is thrilling from the beginning.
Cinematography by G.Diwakar has been brilliant and was apt for the thrilling story from start to end.
Music by Gopi sundar was good and fresh enough for the style of the movie.
The movie had no songs and a different and unsaid climax may or may not satisfy the audience based on their acceptance.

About the cast:
Prithviraj is in the lead character as Antony Moses was absolutely brilliant and was spot on with his character as a rough police commissioner and was really good with the dialogue deliveries, did a stubborn character.
Rehman as Faran did his job pretty brilliant as a calm and intelligent officer and looked younger than all.
Jayasurya as Aryan did a simple character and surely did not forget to make us smile with his simple and elegant dialogues.
Aparna Nair as Rakhee Menon played her part well.
Hima Davis as Rebecca,Riyas Khan as professional shooter, Kunjan as Sudhakaran, Mariya Roy, Shweta Menon, Harish, Mukundan and many others did their part pretty well.

Should You Watch:
Rosshan Andrrews has always offered something different with his movies and yet another different movie and except for some drag in second half the movie promises to be a good watchable one both for youngsters and family. Watch out for some pretty good stunt scenes which is done to perfection. After a bit while a good thriller genre movie has been done as it is needed to be. There is no comic parts or over filmy masala in this and as always its your final decision to watch it or not...!!!

My Rating: 4/5.

Movie Review:Emmanuel-Deivam namoodu koode

Emmanuel - Deivam namoodu koode:
The last two movies of lal jose were "Diamond Necklace" and "Aayalum Njanum Thammil" which were huge hits and kept really different from each other. So this time we wouldn't expect anything less than an awesome movie from Lal who has been the main hit makers in Malayalam movie industry.

About the movie:
"Emmanuel-Deivam namoodu koode" deals with the story of a simple and humble man emmanuel, his family and people around him. Emmanuel with wife and son lives simple but happy life in rented home. Emmanuel got a job in a book publishing press which can close anytime due to lack of publicity and the owner is tricky enough not to pay salary to employees, especially his favorite person emmanuel because he is very pure in heart and sees his owner as godfather. It was hard for him and his family but still they were happy with what they have. Unfortunately one day the owner josephettan goes dark and so the publishing press closes down and emmanuel has to find a new job with a reference. Now he gets job in MNC which is an insurance company. Here he comes across his boss Jeevan(Fahad Fazil) who is so strict and very cunning and gives his job first priority to anything other including his family. Emmanuel sure has a new job with a fixed salary and now has to finish his target every month and he finds hard to cope up with the new generation lads who have really different mindsets. From there it was hard and very challenging job for a pure heart person emmanuel and with his whole life dream of owning a house and lot of other things the story develops.
The movie is humored sentimental drama and have lots of lovely moments which makes us realise the world around us and ourselves.
First half of the movie got lot of humorous situation and surely the scenes with fahad and mamooka was fun to watch most of the time. Second half gets into the story pretty much and get dramatic and sentimental but surely never got me boring.

Cinematography by Pradeep Nair was simple and adequate for the movie.
Editing by Ranjan Abraham again was pretty good and never let it boring at anytime.
Art-direction by Mohandas was good. some simple sets but beautifully presented.
Music by Afzal Yusuf was again simple and just flowed through the movie.
And again another simple and humble climax makes us feel very happy and surely makes our heart little light.

About the cast:
Mamooty is emmanuel in the movie. Mammoka has been brilliant throughout the movie and has shown again the simplicity of a person at its best. Hats off to him.
Fahad as jeevan was absolute brilliant and you got to watch his facial expression change. It changes too quickly that we will never understand what kind of person he actually is.
Rinu mathew the new actress introduced by lal jose played emmanuel's wife and kept it brilliant and never made felt like it was her debut and was perfect for the character and promises a new talent to malayalam.
Master Gauri shankar will take your heart away as emmanuel's son by his angel looks and cute talking. He was the main attraction in the movie.
Sukumari amma plays an important role in the movie and seeing her on screen we will surely know what we are going to miss in future.
Nedumudi veenu, Mukesh, salim kumar, muktha, Guinness pakru and many others played different, simple roles and kept it pretty good.

Should you watch:
No huge fights, no big romance, not colorful, but still a very simple beautiful happiness filled movie and if you are a person with good heart and got much emotions you surely don't want to miss this movie because you will love emmanuel and his family and the whole movie which gives pretty good encouraging message to all of us.
And as always the final decision is yours :)
