Dubai

"Dubai" is a film that revolves around Major Ravi Mammen; his journey from a betrayed soldier, to a succesful millionaire businessman in Dubai and his relationships with various characters and the revenge.

Made on a huge canvas, this was definitely a landmark in malayalam film industry. After "Ayal Kadha Ezhuthukayaanu" that gave a glimpse of Dubai, this sure did utilise the location well without over emphasizing on it.

Joshiy and Renji Panicker made a film with very well written story, strong dialogues, a very big cast list including Bharat Gopi, Janardhanan, NF Varghese, Cochin Haneefa, Nirmal Pandey, Biju Menon,Preeti, Nedumudi Venu, Anjala Zaveri and much more alongside Mammootty. The film has an ending which was a bit let down, but not inferior in quality.

The film was unnecessarily criticised at the time of release. Had missed watching this due to poor reviews over the years. Considering the "Industry Hits" made nowadays with pathetic stories, nauseating dialogues and senseless acting, even from actors like Mammooty and Mohanlal, this indeed deserves better appreciation.

The music from S. P Venkatesh did add an impact to scenes. Vidyasagar made songs pretty good.

The film length of more than three hours could've been cut short.

Overall this is a well written, well directed film that can be watched even two decades past its making.

Actually the movie is famous for the location, the movie completely shooter on Dubai and showed the beauty of Dubai to viewers. The songs was the next important part of this movie.Overall it's a good entertaining movie.
