Angamaly Diaries

First of all A big round of applause for the whole team of makers for Introducing 86 fresh new faces who have dreamed to face the camera and to make a thoroughly well acted and an entertaining film from them is no easy task and hell yeah it requires a lot of guts. The movie immerses you into this small town of Angamaly from the first frame.This movie revolves around a bunch of friends who are basically outlaws and series of unfortunate events in their lives, the best part is none of them had to act as they were literally living the characters, Malayalam film Industry get ready to witness some raw and realistic performances from a whole bunch of new talent ( since Kamatipaadam ) . Though there isn't much to say about the plot , there is a lot to experience from it's making especially the 11 minute single shot climax which is a marvel in film making . Lijo Jose Pelliserry needs to be given credit for presenting experimental cinema to Malayalam, What a comeback from his previous Collosal box office disaster Double Barrel ( Which according to me is one amongst the most technically well made movie but a failed experiment ). Chemban Vinod Jose for his tight screenplay needs to given full credit as there is pretty much lot happening and never a dull moment. Coming to the cast - Antony Varghese ( Vincent Pepe )the new kid on the block was excellent and this lad is here to stay , with a bunch of supporting casts who were spectacular in their respective roles. Special Mention to the guys playing the baddies, they were terrific . Word of caution to those people who look forward to mainstream cinema as this is not your cup of tea ,this movie is about experiencing the essence of Angamaly and its people .Verdict ( Ee katta local padam Pwolichu)
