Summary:

When I envisioned this blog, I had promised my self "Good Stuff" means anything above 3 Stars.  So at 2 Stars, this does not quite cut it.  Yet I wanted to bring it to your attention because, as mentioned above, it's Old School.  Family Vs. Family, Good Vs. Bad, Generations being passed on, Tharavadi Vs. New Money....so on and so forth!!!!

For that reason it's a worth while watch as it has all the elements of a normal "Mohanlal" Family Vs. Family flick.  Nothing different here, so please set your expectations.

Noteworthy Performances:

Saikumar/Siddique:

Although his beginnings were mainly in Comedy (have to mention Ramji Rao Speaking), he has transitioned and perfected the Villain role in many many Malayalam Movies.  He took a step over the the Good side in this one and did a great job being the Good Guy that cares and takes care of all his people.

Similar to Saikumar, Siddique was also a loved Comedy actor in Malayalam (have to mention In Harihar Nagar).  He two has been seen primarily as the bad guy recently.  He once again takes on the Villain character and delivers as expected.

Prithviraj:

I don't know why so many people dislike him (Social Media).  He is a good actor that seems to work hard at perfecting his craft.  I commend him for breaking some of the barriers in Malayalam Film.

Biju Pappan:

Normally seen in the negative role, he actually had a "Good Guy" role in this one.  Throughout the movie, I expected him to turn into the bad guy but props to the makers for at least not taking this predictable story turn seen in many films.
