Top Indian Movies of 2021

  Karnan A movie that is visually beautiful and socially impactful is one best adaptation of Indian mythology. Karnan shed light on the hardship the unprivileged group has to face in society but this time with some commercial touch to it. The film is full of symbols which for shadows the events which happen later in the movie. In this film not just the humans become the character’s but from a snail to the mountains are part of the story make this movie a unique experience.   Minnal Murali To make a superhero movie that suits Kerala culture is not an easy job. The tight screenplay of this film makes it a good story even if we take out the superhero elements. It has some issues in some technical accepts but all of it is outshined by the intent narrative that keeps us engaged and gives us the story that the director wants us to tell.   Nayattu I don’t know why I love films but this film is a summary bad and corrupted our system is and the marginal society get a...

Disserved This Much Hate??|Marakkar Lion Of Arabian Sea Review

Image
  I know this late to give an opinion on this movie, to be frank, I really enjoyed the movie those who say this movie is slow and lag I will be with you. Yes, it is not great it could have been much but still this solid historical film movie moves in pace and historical movie demands. The rise and fall of Marakkar are captured well. Marakkar is portrayed as a normal human being he makes mistakes as well which I really liked. Yes, there are some unwanted plot points even without them the story would work. The movie has cringe dialogue but that is not the reason troll the movie. Battle scenes in the ship and fort were short well. I don’t get the point comparing it with Odiyan and Mamangam is not fair. The criticism of saying the scene is copied from Hollywood movies is not valid this constantly occurring phenomenon and most of the Hollywood movies are inspired from Japanese and another language.   This story could have worked better if it is a two-part movie or a web se...

Jan E Man Movie Review

Image
Not all movies needed to be magnanimous or groundbreakingneighbors they can also be light-hearted and simple and the new Malayalam movie Jan E Man is exactly that simple a piece of work that everyone can enjoy but also sheds light on humans and emotions. The plot is an interesting one where the story revolves around two neighbours where one is celebrating the birthday of a friend and the other is mourning the death of a family member. How these two events take place and how they get connected is the plot of Jan E Man. This film requires good performance and each and every actor puts forward a great performance on the screen time they are given. Basil Joseph’s comedy timing is excellent and Lal performance was heart touching but it was Balu Varghese who was the standout performer for me Not a single character seems unnecessary in the movie everyone played the part one way or the other.  Another good quality of the movie is its screenplay by Ganapathy because the movie will make us t...

KANAKAM KAMINI KALAHAM REVIEW

Image
  I have always been a supporter of out-of-the-box movies in Malayalam, most of these movies won’t get the credit from the masses the new genre may not be everyone’s cup of tea. The new Nivin Pauly flick Kanakam Kamini Kalaham written and directed by Ratish Ambat is one of those offbeat Malayalam movies that won’t be like buy many. The theme of the absurd comedy is an exaggeration of daily life events.  The story takes in the Hotel which has over-the-top versions of real-life people. What like about the movie is that references a lot of stuff like body shaming, political correctness which are the most discussed topic nowadays. Apart from this, there are references to films like The Shining, My Name is Khan, etc. How much unique this movie is I didn’t quite connect with the movie, there are some laugh-out moments in the movie but they are too over the top for my taste. There are some good performances from Nivin Pauly, Grace Antony, Vinay Fort, Rajesh Madhavan, and Sudesh Kumar...

  The movie based on the most known fugitive of Kerala is something that every Keralites will look forward to, the name Sukumara Kurup is talked about at least once in every Malayali household.  When Kurup movie was announced with Dulquer playing the longest wanted fugitive the film enthusiast in me got hyped. Like other big movies, Kurup also got delayed, which also resulted in speculation. Sukumara Kurup is some who killed an innocent human for his greed and the teaser of the movie felt like glorifying a criminal which will be an injustice to the family of the murdered. person.  However, the speculations ended the family said there is no glorification of the criminal but still approval from the audience was required and it is stratifying that There is no glorification Sukumara Kurup.  Coming into the movie the highlight is the making, Bombay and Kerala from the 1980s is captured brilliantly as if the movie was shot in that era. Credit goes technical team for recrea...

Bhramam Malayalam Movie Review

Image
  Bramham Review It is a fact that now the Indian film industry is flooded with remakes, one language is remaking successful movies from another language. The industry which is constantly repeating this is Bollywood, a bunch of south Indian remakes is the line for release in the Hindi language. Due to their constant remakes of South Indian films Bollywood is trolled by the South Indian movie fans because of ruining the billowed films and Malayalam movie lovers are in the front row of trolling Bollywood movies. It is also a fact that this could also be a reverse action when Mollywood remakes Hindi films if didn’t work Hindi movie fans will troll Mollywood for ruining it. When Bhramam's remake of the Bollywood Movie Andhadhun was announced it made me look forward to it due to this reason. Paid Prime Membership on Primevideo.com Brhamam can be termed as respectful but an unnecessary remake of the original. What I like about the movie it at least tries to be different with its comedic ...

Fahad Scores Again

 Malik follows the story pattern of hero to many but villain to the system which we have seen in many films. What makes Malik unique is its making, performance, and cultural aspects in the movie. The film is filled with amazing visuals kudos to the cinematographer. Malik is 2hr 41 minutes long but it never felt like that because the movie moved in nice pacing that does not make the viewers bored. We immediately get transformed into the world and culture. The cast as usual has done a great job to make the film engaging because the script demands good performance.  Parallel's with Kamal Haasan's Nayakan can be s seen in Malik but still, it is unique in its way. As mentioned earlier there are cliches in the plot that can be overlooked. Malik could have been a better experience on the big screen.

  Jurassic Park (English) Jurassic Park is a movie I grew up with at first it was just a monster film me and my sister will die to see Jurassic Park on TV. But when became an adult and started to understand English conservation I understood that it is more than dinosaur eating people. The movie is a well-crafted sci-fi flick that has scientific accuracy.  The facts of how they made dinosaurs, how female dinosaurs became male, genetic engineering made the movie even more interesting. So those who think Jurassic Park is a monster movie you are wrong. Spadikam (Malayalam) Spadikam is a Malayalam film being Keralite is a must-watch. The movie is a perfect combination of commercial and classic elements. The protagonist Adu Thoma has a lot of fans than the actor Mohanlal who played the role. The plot is about a Thoma who became a goon due to a lack of support from his father. The father played the late actor Thilakan is a strict mathematician who forcing his son to be like him but T...

Horror + Crime

Image
  The new Malayalam thriller is a blending of horror and crime genre. The movie is not the next best thing but a one-time watch. The editing and camera are excellent in the film so are the BackGround Score.  The story, it started in an interesting way but when it comes to it became quite predictable. In a crime thriller, the story will be interesting if the task of solving the crime is a challenge but when it comes to the second half it becomes easy for the protagonist. The horror part is done in a believable way that does not break the reality of the world it is set. When it comes to the acting part everybody has done good jobs the roles were not challenging for anyone. "Cold Case is a one-time watch thriller that does not belong to the must-watch category but worth giving it a try" Rating 6/10
