Malayalam Movie Review - Mumbai Police (Rating 3.5/5 Star)

Pushing the boundaries!!!

Summary:

Overall it's a solid movie, with some great performances and an incredible twist which 99% of Malayalam Movie fans will not see coming. 

Malayalam Movie Mumbai Police Cast Absolutely give credit to Roshan Andrews and the creators of Mumbai Police for pushing the envelope, although I am not completely convinced it was needed.  It's certainly ONE of the routes they could have taken to close out the film, but there may have been a 100 other ways it could have been done that would have done justice.  That being said, this was the vision of the creators and I certainly respect that.

Malayalam Movie Mumbai Police PrithbirajThe story unfolds in a very clever manor.  Essentially the entire movie is about figuring out what happened in a 45 minute span while leaving the answers right in front of our eyes (W/out connecting the dots, of course).  Often times Malayalam movies will leave a lot of gaps in a story.  The makers of Mumbai Police go through great measures to have a solid story that closes out all gaps (Except for one slight stretch involving a gun).

Malayalam Movie Mumbai Police CastThe combination of Prithviraj, Jayasurya & Rahman is spot on for there roles (though the movie overplays the whole friendship angle a little too much w/out fully developing it).  Jaysurya, while not the main character, makes a solid impact to the film.

Prithviraj absolutely knocks his role out of the park with a great performance.  I am not sure if any other Major Actor in Malayalam would have taken on this role and delivered.  Props to you.

Overall, you should definitely check out Mumbai Police.

Malayalam Movie Review - Shutter (Rating 3.5/5 Star)


Malayalam Movie Shutter, will have you on the edge of your seat!!!

Summary:

Joy Mathew
A Malayalam Suspense Thriller.  A very different movie that has twists and turns that I did not expect going in.  Shutter is the directorial debut of Joy Mathew (Who also wrote the story), and he certainly knows what he's doing.  A very well made movie.  Although this is his first time as a director, many of you may remember him as Fr. Ottaplakan from Amen (The main priest).

It's a very simple story, but Joy Mathew is able to really capture and keep the attention of the viewer with the twists and turns in the story.  All with a subtle comedic touch.

Not many frills to the film (Most of the story unfolds in a single room), but Lal, Vinay Forrt and Sreenivasan
Shutter lal
deliver quality performances.  A great performance is always expected from Lal and Sreenivasan.  I had no clue who Viany Fort was before this film, but what a great job by him as the Auto Driver.  I hope we see more of him in the future.

Certainly a  Must Watch!!!
