Shikkari Shambhu

Shikkari Shambu is a good entertainer. Comedy, acting and climax are the main strengths of this movie. The movie starts with comedy later turns suspenseful and twist at the climax similar to Romans, 2 Hariharnagar, Ghost House Inn, Seniors If you loved these movie you will love Shikkari Shambhu for sure. Overall a watchable fun movie 6/10.

I loved this movie. It is so entertaining with it's funny scenes. And the climax was simply awesome. It was really shocking and unpredictable. Totally,a good suspense thriller.

You can almost predict what's going to happen in Sugeeth's Shikkari Shambhu. Crafted like any of his previous films (starts funny then gets dramatically serious) and bearing semblance to another film that Kunchacko Boban did in 2013 (Boban Samuel's Romans), this comedy thriller is only as good as its first act. Boban is the leader of a thieving trio who move to a village masquerading as hunters who are given the challenging task of trapping a man-eating leopard (or tiger). With intentions not aligning with this task, the trio fool around chasing skirt and making acquaintances until something more serious comes their way. The plot stinks of predictability but somehow pulls itself together to throw out an unfeasible climax that is convoluted to the core. At the end, Shikkari Shambhu, although faintly funny and apprehensive at times, ends with a lot of unanswered questions. The actors are decent, but it is the tried-and-tested story and narration that makes this a very average affair. If entertainment only means a thriller that you can crack and predict in 5 minutes then Shikkari Shambhu is a masterpiece. Otherwise, move along. TN.
