Fight Club (2023)
Complicating the Simple.
It was just another revenge story. I have no idea why its rated so high. There is nothing in the movie to deserve such a high rating. No emotions, not a bery good plot, no big moments, acting was okay. The director has just tried to do a Tarantino or a Lijo Jose but fails big time. Plot and the entire thing is hyped to peak. I seem to start wondering why Lokesh is rated so high... I didnt like any of his three movies that I watched so far - Master, Vikram and now this one. All of these movies are hyped with nothing in them to be rated so high. Talking abot FC in particular, the only aspect that was okay is the acting of its protagonists.
Animal (2023)
Mindless movie-Awesome Ranbir!
Same mysogynistic saga that Venga displayed in his first venture. Alpha male, really??? Are we living in the days of hunter-gatherers or what??? Nonsense. Too violent and too illogical. If it wasnt for Ranbir, Id have given it a rating of 2 or 3. Ranbir is absolutely brilliant. His intensity just blows your mind away. When you think he has reached perfection, he delivers something that is even a notch higher than before. Must watch one time or may be two, just for Ranbir's out of the world performance. He has nailed it. None else could have make me watch this mindless slaughter hunt for 3.5hrs.
Kantara (2022)
Whats the fuss about!
I seriously dont undertsand all the hooplah around it. Yes, the God-messenger thing is kind of novel but everything else is what we have been seeing in Indian movies for past several decades, the main storyline being the rich oppressing the poor or say the upper class oppressing the lower. Acting is loud, so is the background, it felt more like noise than background score. Climax is good, everything else is bore. I didnt find anything worth praising, there arent any special moments or dialogues either. I found it nothing but loud, too loud. Filled with overacting characters. I repent watching it.
12th Man (2022)
Jeetu-Lal combo
Yet another winner from Jeetu Joseph and Mohanlal. Gripping. First 30 minutes seem to be a little made up. But then, once tue questioning begins, its all the way Mohanlal and Jeetu Joseph and their sheer brilliance. Got me hooked to the screen again. Expected nothing less from the pair. Watch it and enjoy!
Puzhu (2022)
Mammooty all the way
Mammooty... He ia brillaint, the only reason I watched this movie till the end. Movie is a drag but talk about Mammooty, he has just killed it. Watch it for him. U will seldom find better performances than this... Right from the top drawyer.
Churuli (2021)

They could see n understand wat a normal person lyk me couldnt.. watch it at ur own risk... i wasted two hours of my life, u save yours please.
Kala (2021)
Nonsense
What utter non sense was this. Cudnt watch full, Didnt dare to, fast forwarded after 59 mins of torture and ended up torturing myself for another 5-10 minutes in d end. Director whoever it is (I dnt care to know) - Pls spare us and dont make another movie.
Drishyam 2 (2021)
Absolute must watch!
What a movie... Right from the top drawer. Jeetu Joseph and Mohanlal have nailed it. Killer climax. Must watch
No Bed of Roses (2017)
Nonsense
Does art movie mean complication? Does it mean nonsensical and meaningless camera angles? If it does, then this movie is top class. I watched it for Irrfan but it isnt necessary to watch at all. Irrfan is one of my favorites n with due respect to him, he didnt need to make this one. Story is good but it cud hav been shown more effectively if the Director had used more simplistic approach. Unnecessarily complicated.
Dabangg 3 (2019)
Another nonsense from Salman
I dont know whats up with Salman. Im his big time fan, but even i couldnt watch this movie in full. I left right after the Munna song and Im thinking why didnt I leave early. Its pathetic. Given 2 stars just because of Salman. Otherwise my review would have been in negative. Its high time he gets back to some sensical movies like Bajrangi and Sultan. Im really afraid he seems to be digging his own grave. Eagerly waiting for Inshallah and Radhe. Hope these movies wont disappoint like his recent movies like Bharat and D3. Prabhudeva seems to be looking for exploiting punches and dialogues from D1 and D2 but falls too short. Im utterly disappointed, had big hopes from the Dabangg genre. It seems none of the characters was interested in doing this movie and everyone is just sleepwalking. Sai seems fresh and Sudeep too dramatic. I couldnt find anything appealing to sit through the entire duration of the movie, didnt even wait for Sallu to go shirtless. May God give him some sense. His ardent fans like me expect much more from him.
Jallikattu (2019)
Why was this movie made
Lijo Jose has gone from brilliant to overdo. Taking his leaf out of Kamal Hassan who went from brilliance to self-glorifcation. Man turning to savage over his need was the motto, good enough. But the way he has portrayed is where the problem lies. Unnecessary loud music and some nonsensical camera angles reminded me of the downfall of RGV. The brilliance of Lijo Jose lies in his witty/ironical dialogues and characters that he builds which we witnessed in Angamaly n ee ma yo. There is no relevant/strong character here in this movie, no sensitive dialogues and a very forgettable plot. I thought of leaving the theatre during the interval but only stayed with the hope that Lijo will come up with something before the climax. But I was utterly disappointed. At the end, I was wondering why I allowed myself to go through this ordeal all the way through. I am sorry to myself.
Joker (2019)
Must watch... Hail Pheonix!
Just go and watch Joaquin Phoenix deliver one of the best performances in the history of hollywood movies... He does justice to the legend of Heath 'Joker' Ledger... Sure deserves an Oscar for this one.
