Top Indian Movies of 2021

Image
  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...

Rise of a New Hero !!!

Image
  The superhero genre is something the Indian film industry is trying to crack. There have been solid attempts on this famous genre in cinema but most of them didn’t get the recognition they deserve apart from Krish. For a superhero movie to be hit in India there should be something unique in it that makes not only the fans of the superhero genre but those who don’t like this genre as well. Well, Mollywood’s very own superhero movie Minnal Murali is more than a superhero movie that everyone can enjoy. The character arch of both Villain and Hero is written well in the movie and the story is all about how these two discover their powers and what motivations lead them to become who they are in the movie. Minnal Murali has got iconic shots and also hilarious characters that help in world-building. The movie has some flaws but it is not fair to point out all of them there will never be a perfect film. Tovino Thomas as the hero is perfect in the role his innocence and his discovering...

Bloody Thriller in Malayalam in Cinma

Image
  It is rare to see a thriller that has blood-shedding action in Indian cinema. Movies with violent scenes may not be accepted by the audience but the 2021 Malayalam movie Kala directed by Rohith V.S break the odes with its gory and bloody treatment that makes the viewers engaged throughout the end. Tovino Thomas in Kala The movie starts without giving the idea of where the story is heading and when the main plot happens it is a non-stop ride.  It is a new adaptation of hero vs villain or privileged vs underprivileged, rich vs power. The protagonist is tribal and the antagonist is rich and privileged and it is a battle between the two. The camera works is so brilliant to bring the experience to the viewers.  For those who want to see a bloody action thriller, this movie is for you.

A perfect Tribute to the legend?

Image
 Ray is yet another anthology based on short stories of the legend Satyajit Ray The negative I have is at least three movies could have cut short in 40 Minutes rather than almost one hour of running time and they could have made more impact. The movies Bharupiya and Spotlight were a bit confusing when it comes to the end because it kind of breaks the reality it is set in even though the stories were interesting. The final twist reveals of Spotlight which is the first entry in the anthology was quite predictable. The movie which likes among the four  Manoj Bajpayee starred "Hungama Hey Kyon Barpa" which felt a good mixture of seriousness and comedy but again running time made the movie lagged. On the technical side the visuals, music was good and have some sequences which are rare in Indian movies and all the actors have done a good job. Like the idea of telling stories by adapting tom to the modern-day.  I think some of these works as written material and the makers shou...

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...

A Perfect Ending | Money Heist Review

Image
    Since the last year of the Pandemic era, the show Money Heist has become a global phenomenon. The first half of the final season is a heartbreaking cliffhanger wondering the audience what would happen next. To be honest, I am not a huge fan of the whole gold part of the series. It was unnecessary and some character death seemed like a cheap trick to get emotionally invested in the show but the first two parts of the fifth season have won me over. The plus point of Money Heist is that all five seasons were fast-paced which never bore the audience. Coming from Spain the series has a unique style to it. When it comes to the fifth season the story has a nonlinear pattern and the second story in the series felt unnecessary but it paid off in the end. The story is also an extension of this universe; it shows the previous life of the characters and how they ended up in the heist of the Bank of Spain.   Well, this is the season where the side characters also go to Shine Gandi...
