Nna Than Kesu Kodu
Like most satires, Nna Thaan Case Kodu ridicules the machinery of government. The movie takes a few cinematic liberties but packs a punch in terms of the satirical elements. It also has some terrific performances.

Laal Singh Chaddha
Laal Singh Chaddha appeals more to the heart and is a bit too long, but there is enough in it to leave you teary-eyed. The movie works like a warm blanket from head to toe on a cold Sunday morning.

Thallumaala
Some fight to avenge somebody, and others fight for money. The characters in Khalid Rahman's Thallumaala fight mainly to let out their feelings. It is a bizarre, experimental movie that works mostly for the treatment.

Darlings
Darlings deals with a grim subject matter, but writer-director Reen mines moments of hilarity from it. There is a hiccup or two in the second half, but the actors keep it grounded and engaging throughout.

19 (1) (a)
19(1)(a) is an indirect exploration of the incident it discusses and the politics that triggered that incident. The film has some flaws, but it's politics is so powerful that it stays with you even hours after watching it.

Paappan
For the most part, Joshiy's Paappan is like every other whodunit thriller. It becomes more engaging as it approaches the climax. It has an interesting plot and a villain with a strong reason for the killings. It has no red herrings or fake suspense elements.

Malayankunju
Fahadh Faasil usually acts in a way that allows us to form a mental image or a profile of his character. It applies to his role in Malayankunju as well. It is a survival thriller that works as an acting showcase for Fahadh.

Mahaveeryar
Mahaveeryar works as an allegory about the static nature of authority even amid the passing of time. It is not easy for everyone to understand the film as Abrid Shine does not explain anything verbally here.

Vaashi
Vaashi has an interesting approach to courtroom drama that respects the intelligence of the viewer, handles a sensitive issue deftly, and does not hurt our sentiments. The makers do not quite treat the courtroom drama with enough seriousness, but the drama is engaging.

Ela Veezha Poonchira
The story is simple, but the pleasure of watching the film stems from the brilliant atmosphere that the makers have created for it. With his cinematographer Manesh Madhavan and sound designer Ajayan Adat, Kabir creates a sense of dread that permeates the air that surrounds the characters.

Paka
Lukose gives more importance to the revenge aspect than the love story in Paka, making the film more violent and intense. This also means that the audience thinks more about who will survive or escape as compared to whether the couple will be united at the end.

Kaduva
The narrative of Kaduva does not do enough to strike a chord with the audience. A mass film usually works better when a hero's failure seems like our failure and his triumph appears to be our triumph. It is hardly the case here, as the writing is unoriginal.
