Kaapa

Despite a strong foundation on which to build, Kaapa remains a generic gangster drama despite its potential. I truly hope they don't continue filming the sequel after that disappointing climax. Although Anna Ben is the film's central character, she has a smaller role than Prithviraj, Jagathy, and dileesh pothan, who are the film's three biggest pluses. Aparna and Asif Ali were fine with the possibility that had arisen. There isn't much excitement to be had in Kaapa. The fact that it takes itself so seriously stands out as a huge flaw. The group members rarely discuss anything other than business. The weak writing makes the characters seem pompous.

Watched kaapa movie perfect Ganster crime Movie from Director Shajikailas .!

Once again the hit combo Prithviraj Sukumaran & shajikailas done it neatly ..!

This time more class than mass , a lot of good performances jagadish and Asif Ali stand tall !!!!!!!

Aparna balamurali made impact .!!! Anna Ben is decent !

& Prithviraj Sukumaran acting side he is in control of his skills and In Actions he is the SWAG ,simply superb !

One of the highlights of the movie is excellently choreographed actions ,some shots are crazy and along with good background music and cinematography !!

Script writer indu gopan give quality time to most of every actors and nicely put a engaging crime action movie with a emotional depth !

If you are looking for a gangster crime movie with emotions and plenty of good actions , take a ticket and enjoy.

Watched Kaduva and then decided to give this one a try. This one failed to impress me as the previous one. Lot of scenes are quite unique and presented the gangster rivalry in different people point of view.

This movie is trying to portrait the gangster in half cooked way. It rides in some classic Malayalam cinema way for some scenes and derailed to mass elements in most of other scenes.

Looks like Shaji written the climax and started to develop the story towards that. This is not clicked in right way for the mass masala lovers, like me. Looks like it succeeded in half for both mass and class way.

First of all, this movie should have been directed by Venu. The material clearly demands a gritty, slow-build approach and not just a series of scenes that lead to some inconsequential set-piece. Shaji Kailas, I must say, has almost given GR Indugopan's screenplay the typical mass treatment, robbing us viewers the chance to connect better with these characters and their milieus. As a result, you get a watchable film with some fantastic shots (by Jomon T John), an occasional glimmer of hope that Kotta Madhu (a stiff Prithviraj) isn't your usual gangster, and a climax that's predictable from the get-go. Among the performances, Jagadeesh and Dileesh Pothan are solid while Asif Ali is alright. In fact, the film falters when the storytelling perspective suddenly shifts from Asif's character to Kotta Madhu. The ladies, Anna Ben and Aparna Balamurali, don't have much to do here.

***Kaapa Malayalam Movie Review***

Kaapa Movie starring Prithviraj Sukumaran Asif Ali Aparna Balamurali Ana Ben, Jagdish in lead role..

Directed by Shaji Kailas

A Gangster Story with a deep Vengeance

Various forms of Gangster films we have seen, kaapa doesn't offer a variety or a unique kind but still Kaapa able to entertain & that is because every character has a powerful impact..

When these characters are performed by talents, then it's always thrilled to watch...

Prithviraj as Kotta Madhu. When it comes to serious genre roles, this man effortlessly performs.

Asif Ali's screen presence comes at certain points of time but during that period he delivers well.

Aparna & Ana Ben , had not been given much screen presence except the last 10 minutes. They should have been exposed more.

Jagdish & Nandu performance was also good.

Although movie directed by Shaji Kailas, at some points we could see his signature film making shots but still this was different from what he done till now.

BGM was fantastic.

Overall a watchable movie.
