Murphy

It's a great script and the movie is very well written on the page. From my perspective, the execution isn't as good. For example, I didn't feel the 1996 era and Janani still looked younger at the climax .

There was a possibility the director could have used artificial intelligence , how Janani would look at the age 50 +, and had her make up that way... that would have been better ....... The visuals are very good...appreciated .

I wish the movie had more impactful background scores that added a magical touch throughout. Perhaps budget constraints played a role (not sure), but these aspects could have been improved: 1. The background music (BGM) overall 2. The depiction of the 1996 timeline difference 3. Janani's appearance in the climax Enhancing these elements might have elevated the movie into the ranks of the industry's best.

ALL THE BEST FOR ENTIRE TEAM........CREATE ANOTHER GOOD STORY JONRA THAT KANNADA NOT YET EXPLORED.......

Murphy is a breath of fresh air for Kannada cinema! The visuals are stunning, immersing you in the world the filmmakers have so carefully crafted. But what really stands out is the well-woven story that keeps you hooked from start to finish.

The performances are top-notch, and the direction feels precise and innovative. It's not just a movie, it's an experience that deserves to be seen on the big screen. I gave it 10 stars because it truly raises. People need to come out and support movies like Murphy that push the boundaries and bring a fresh perspective. Don't miss it!

Super fantastic one.

Really good acting by all the actors and with a very good storyline. The hero has acted very well, does not feel like a newcomer. He will be a guy to watch out for and hope he chooses movies with good content going forward.

Background music is pleasant, is not overdone, and very good story telling.

Really well made sci-fi movie, captivating throughout. Good content oriented movie, hard to get such movies in kannada industry. Direction is amazing, expect similar good movies from this team in the future.

Please watch it and encourage this team.

Dattatreya sir is a treat to watch as always :)

Murphy (2024), directed by BSP Varma, is a beautifully crafted emotional drama that strikes a chord with anyone who values deep human connections. The film's central theme-an exploration of family, love, and the weight of time-offers a touching narrative that reflects on the complexities of relationships.

From the outset, I was captivated by the story's unique use of a radio as a metaphor for connection across time. It wasn't just a plot device but a symbol of the emotional wavelengths that bind us to our past and loved ones. Prabhu Mundkur's performance as the protagonist stands out, with his quiet yet powerful portrayal of a man navigating both nostalgia and present-day realities. Roshni Prakash's role complements his performance perfectly, adding layers of warmth and introspection.

The film's cinematography elevates its emotional depth, capturing the beauty of everyday life while weaving in moments of almost magical realism. The pacing, while deliberate, allows the story's emotional weight to sink in, particularly during key scenes where time travel is hinted at, offering viewers an allegory for the timelessness of love and memories.

If you're drawn to stories that are rich in sentiment but not overly sentimental, Murphy offers an immersive experience that resonates long after the credits roll. It's a must-watch for anyone who enjoys introspective films with a touch of magic.

Joe Murphy wants to gift his dad the precious radio post-repair but on the way home, he meets with an accident. Years later in 2024, his son David has been raised by his grandfather who is still attached to the radio and David wants to repair it as a surprise. He falters in it and soon, gets a bigger surprise when a cross connection happens in the radio transmission to a person named Janani in 1996. As they bond over their radio conversation, he realizes there is still chance to change the past and Janani being the key. How do they learn the laws of physics when it comes to Love in this process, forms rest of the story.

Murphy joins the list of beautifully shot Kannada films this year and is aided by some beautifully written lines. The drama which uses time travel as a plot point is all about good vibes and the director has a firm grip on the film's tonality which doesn't change from start to finish. However, the screenplay remains quite predictable and there is no surprise in the store. This at times does feel dragged and one wishes to have made a better balance between both the love stories - 1996 and 2024, rather than solely focusing on 1996. It is still a good attempt and I definitely don't want to run it down because of the predictability.
