Christy
Christy walks a thin line between a story of one-sided love and two-sided love. At about the halfway mark, one wonders where Alvin and his writers, G. R. Indugopan and Benyamin, will take the story.

Ranbir and Shraddha are at their effervescent best in the song, but their chemistry seems off right from the start.

Gulmohar is proof that Hindi cinema still holds onto its traditions. This may not be a bad thing for some, but others who want freshness in Hindi cinema will find it a little underwhelming.

A revolution is like war in that it is never fought alone. This means Thuramukham is not a call-to-action in the same way that a film like Padavettu is. The film powerfully captures the first stirrings of pent-up anger against the Chappa system in Kochi.

Shaji Kailas' film has Mohanlal as a mysterious man living alone in an apartment during peak COVID. The premise of the film may be interesting, but the writing is poor. Even if you consider that Mohanlal is self-parodying these days, you cannot overlook the lousy writing he gets.

For the good part, Ntikkakkakkoru Premondarnn rides solely on the charm quotient and charisma of the leads, but tedium starts to set in soon. The major deal-breaker here is the lack of fresh conflicts in the plot.

It is refreshing to see a film where people are OK about their loved ones meeting their exes. Some movies may use this scenario to create some sort of domestic tension, but Pranaya Vilasam veers more towards the feel-good category.

The writing in Iratta is a mixed bag, but the acting and plot are so good that the film is consistently fascinating. There is a big twist in the plot and an even better piece of narration that give a new dimension to the twin characters and the title of the film.

"Romancham" (goosebumps) is a film so funny that it will have you rolling on the floor, laughing. It is an incomplete film, or a prequel, that works mainly based on moments of sheer improvisation. Perhaps Romancham II will give us the goosebumps that the title promises.

The movie does not recognise that a police encounter is a bad thing, because it only proves the failure of the judicial system to deliver its duties. I am all for movies celebrating mass vigilantism, but Christopher is not a good advertisement for it.

In Thankam, director Saheed Arafath and writer Syam Pushkaran offer an engaging police procedural that plays out as an investigation film. The movie is about the ins and outs of gold dealing in Thrissur. What works best here is the authenticity in the treatment of its characters.

Usually, films that celebrate male bonding show the passing of time so well. But the characters in Saturday Night hardly grow old enough on screen for us to feel the effect of passing time. This is a major issue that deprives the film of its authenticity.
