Great movie to take your kids to!!!
Summary:
As you can imagine from the name, Philips and the Monkey Pen, as well as the trailers, Comedy is a large part of the movie. It's not all just fun and games, the movie does convey some messages regarding morals and values to the audience, especially the young once.
Some of the "Simple" incidents taking place in the classroom shown in the movie is sure to bring forth some memories for many who has gone through similar incidents in their own lives. Another subtle aspects of the movie I enjoyed very much was the meaningful quotes that were delivered at various points. The best of which is regarding how Honesty is the Best policy:
“The truth isn’t bitter; it is the lies that are excessively sweet”. (Sounds much better in Malayalam).
Noteworthy performances:
The Kids
Ryan Philip is the lead in the movie, and he did an excellent job in all aspects of the film. Jugru and his smile with the missing front teeth, while not the central character, stole the show at many points.
Notes:
- Innocent & Jayasurya, while small roles, delivers big (as expected)
- Good role for Vijay Babu
