Kanakam Kaamini Kalaham

Ka Kaa Ka is the latest film of Ratheesh Poduval who amazed us with the brilliant "Android Kunjappan". Quite shocking to see the quality of this film as it is way lower than expected.

Nivin and Vinay Forte were carrying the entire film on their shoulders although other actors did well, nothing quite managed to be watchable. Jaffer Idukki got a role which he did with perfection but extremely boring thanks to sloppy writing.

This is a film with no story and just a string of minor events to convey a social message. What could've been a short film dragged till eternity.

The film has its moments that ll make you laugh at times but soon become monotonous with jokes that make you cringe than laugh. If not for the good actors, this would've been unwatchable.

It seems that the makers struggled to intentionally push in comedy on every scene which misfired most of the times after initial hour.

Many do call this a potential "cult" film. This definitely is a 'double barrel (2015)' reminder that not all shots do hit the target whoever makes it.

Good concept. Bad execution. Pointless film.

KaKaKa is a good experimental comedy movie. After a long time we have a very enjoyable movie that we can watch with family and kids. As an experimental movie this is not everyones cup of tea. Laughed a lot in a long time. There's not a big or great story just a simple plot and executed well with satire comedy. All actors performed well, especially Jaffer idukki what an awesome performance. Those who love to enjoy a movie without any tension & doesn't care about the story, it's for you liked The Grand Budapest Hotel, will definitely love this experimental one from mollywood.

An absurd comedy with more misses than hits, Nivin Pauly's Kanakam Kaamini Kalaham fails to carry its initial momentum all the way through. The obvious hat-tip to Stanley Kubrick's The Shining and Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel aside, writer-director Ratheesh Poduval's film tries to be too many things but not quite getting anything right. It also frequently divulges into total randomness in the name of absurdity fetching neutral results. Some scenes, especially in the latter half, lack any sense or purpose. It becomes evident that they exist purely to amp up the noise and chaos.

Nivin has donned the "lazy, good-for-nothing" character way too many times for this one to be any surprising. It's Grace Antony who walks away with the applause here. She's ably supported by Vinay Forrt (who plays the front office manager) and Jaffer Idukki (who plays a drunkard), who come up with competent feats. Whether a full-blown absurd comedy like the ones Priyadarshan made in the '80s work for Malayali audiences (who connect better with realistic plots and performances) in 2021, is a pertinent question to ask. A not-so-distant counterpart to this film could be Vettam, another comedy of errors, but is miles ahead in its situational comedy quotient. Vettam makes us laugh our guts out even now, but I don't think Kanakam Kaamini Kalaham will have that kind of recall value.

I enjoyed this movie a lot. Not suitable for every audience who seeks for a comedy film. This is a different experience. I loved this cast.

Movies like this need to created in malayalam industry.

This is a film that relies entirely on the charm of its actors. There is nothing in the script. The jokes are weak. Everything about the movie is uninspired. Nivin sleepwalks through his role. Jaffer Idukki and Joy Mathew provide some relief. Grace Anthony was inconsistent. Vincy Alocious was charming. Vinay Fort was godawful. Take the worst Srinivasan or Jagadish film of the 90s. It would still be better than this film.
