Pavi Caretaker

I didn't enjoy this movie, and the extended runtime felt completely unnecessary. I expected a comeback from Dileep but that didn't end up well.

The story was also not convincing at all and somewhere the screenplay was a bit sloppy. You usually expect a good family-friendly movie when Dileep is in it, but this one just didn't have that feel.

Everyone has performed well in the movie and Dileep also did a great job. I think he should do more serious roles like he did in Ramaleela. He's an actor with a lot of talent, so naturally, we expect much more from him. Hopefully next time he won't dissapoint us, fingers crossed.

Pavi Caretaker stays true to the classic Dileep formula, blending humor and simplicity in a way that feels both nostalgic and refreshing. While the film doesn't push any new boundaries, it offers a pleasant change from the flood of low-quality OTT content that has become all too common. The plot is straightforward, but the humor and lighthearted moments are well-executed, keeping you entertained throughout.

Dileep's performance is consistent with his earlier roles. Despite the controversies surrounding him, Pavi Caretaker stands on its own as a fun and engaging film. It doesn't aim to reinvent the wheel but succeeds in delivering a solid and enjoyable viewing experience. If you're looking for a straightforward, feel-good film, this one fits the bill.

Surrounded by hate and a negative image, Dileep is trying hard to make his comeback. I watch movies for their content, and I do not let actors' personal lives cloud my judgment when it comes to watching a film. Given the chance, I approached this one with an open mind.

The story revolves around the mundane life of a caretaker in a posh residential building, which takes a turn when he forms a special bond.

The narrative is entirely focused on Pavithran, played by Dileep. If this story had been released in the '90s, there's no doubt it would have been a box office success. However, today, both the plot and execution feel outdated. The screenplay is weak and is stretched to such an extent that it tests your patience. I would be surprised if you don't find yourself pressing the fast forward button to get through the movie.

Dileep has returned to his usual element. He is a brilliant actor-there's no second thought about it-and I enjoyed his antics throughout my childhood. But now, seeing him engage in buffoonery feels cringe-worthy, to say the least. He really needs to contemplate his choices of films, both in terms of acting and producing, if he genuinely wants to achieve success. Additionally, a series of new actresses join the cast, each with limited screen time, and they all perform well in their roles. Johny Antony and Raadhika Sarathkumar are decent in theirs.

The comedy sequences work in parts and could be enjoyed as isolated reels, but as part of the narrative, they falter. The songs are merely bad, adding only length to the film. The scenes with the dogs are heartwarming and resonate with the audience. However, the movie ultimately fails to connect with viewers and does not entertain.

Reiterating the point, the world has moved on, and it's high time Dileep does too. His old techniques won't suffice anymore, and the chances of failing, as seen in this film, are at an all-time high. Watch a few comedy sequences by fast-forwarding; otherwise, just ignore it.

This film was ok, performances over the top, Dileep and director trying to recreate slapstick and cliched physical comedy of 2000s ( homages or scenes reminiscing of CID Moosa, Parakkumthalika, Vettam etc. Put in)

But the story and character development was given less priority in going for the comedy!

Also screenplay is hit and miss and supporting acting was below average.

The movie is not as bad the rating I gave, movie is watchable when it is comes on TV - can watch on a lazy afternoon - when you don't want logic, but just entertainment. But Malayalam movies and audience deserve better ! The story and premise had potential and a better more serious treatment! Ity

The leads character got messed up trying to inject comedy - because Pavi in comedy scenes and in other scenes are totally different - it's like he is suffering multiple personal disorder.

*** Pavi Caretaker Malayalam Movie Review ***

Directed by Vineeth Kumar starring Dileep in the lead role.

Plot of the Movie.

Pavithran a Ex NRI returned to hometown serving a security guard duty in an apartment. Leading a single life, his only companion is a dog whom its refereed as "bro." One moment comes up when a girl whom he has not seen become his most important person in his life & how his life changes is all about the movie.

Movie Analysis.

1) We could able to see Dileep performing his best when he comes in his ground. Comedy and Dileep are always hand to hand & here we could see that magic again.

2) The story gives the shades of his earlier movie "Bodyguard" but still it is a watchable flick.

3) As the title suggest, Pavi is the care taker of the apartment, but in life when he was in the notion there is no need of anyone but a moment which changes his view towards his life & he feels that there is a need of care taker not only to take care during his old age but throughout his life a person whom he could share his thoughts , express his emotions , rely blindly , the story although seems to be heard a lot but still it's a point to be remembered in each one's life.

Overall a decent watchable Dileep fun flick.
