"22 Female Kottayam" - Movie review

Its not a great Entertainer... rather u feel it more like a Disturbing movie .. But the good thing is that all those disturbance is in the right direction and is for a right reason ....

A bold subject with an even bolder treatment ... A big salute to Aashiq Abu for taking such a risky move especially after a hugely successful Salt'n Pepper ... But surely he hit the nail on the head ...

Final word : A must watch ... 

Warning ; Don't go for it expecting our usual filmi gimmicks OR those soaping feel good affect !!!

"Second Show" - Movie review

In one word its NOT any old wine in new bottle, but rather some new fresh wine served on a normal good old bottle ... 

My verdict : Goes neck in neck with Beautiful and Salt n Pepper, and may an inch higher for avoiding all those boring typical Cliches as well....

And for those who still live in M&M nostalgia and complains that Malayalam movies are dead .. my advice is Go, Watch and Wake up ... There is still hope, a lot of them !!!

"Casanova" - MovieReview

Stunt/Style : **** ABOVE AVERAGE
Comparing to fellow Molly wood movies the stunts are good (may be a tad less stylish than 'slow motion specialist Neerad ji). I strongly feel majority of the Budget went for this part.

Songs/Dance : *** AVERAGE
Couple of good songs and a energetic dance from Lalettan 
But one song was released years back and thus don't have its charisma now !

Performance : *** AVERAGE
Rated three stars mainly for Lalettan, who again did manage to do justice to a Role which possiblly cannot be done more perfectly by anyone else in Molly wood. For all others I feel there was NOT enough space or chance to act itself.

Direction : ** BELOW AVERAGE
Did NOT expect such a futile effort from Raosh Andrews. With all the hype it gave, the direction is far below par.The control which Roshan had over the movie in his previous efforts was missing and its too direction less one.

Story/Screenplay : * POOR
Its so hard to believe that the people who wrote Notebook, Traffic is behind this crap story.There is Nothing new in the story with all the same old cliches.
The screenplay was a disaster and there were too many potholes, may be more than our state roads after monsoon !

Final verdict
After watching this movie on Release day, this was what I lost and gained
Loss : 50 Rs, 2.5 hrs
Gain : A very frustrating head ache

... and I am sure most of the other fellow Lalettan fans in that theatre will also be feeling the same way
Do I need to say more !
