Kurukkan

Directed by Jayalal Divakaran. One time time pass movie. Silly comedy dialogues scenes for all actors. There is death of an instagram influencer, and Vineeth Seeenivasan who is a police officer is investigating it. He fixates on Shine Chacko as the murderer, and creates a story and fake witnesses to make him the culprit. Shine being tech savvy defends his own case. Oo antava vava by Vineeth Sreenivasan, and all his comical scenes, is hilarious. He did really well. Sreenivasan is the usual fake witness for the police: He gets his dues as well at the end. Overall fun for a one time watch. And great to see Vineeth Sreenivasan being comfortable in any role.

Vineeth Sreenivasan is an extremely talented person, his songs are heartwarming, his direction although feels cringe at time usually is good, but acting is not his cup of tea and of late he has been type casted as an eccentric character as in this film.

Another actor that i have zero opinion about is Shine Tom, he was good some years back like in Ithihasa and all but of late his acting is so clumsy, his dialogue delivery is atrocious. I see no acting chope on this guy that so many people choose to cast him. In this film it felt like he was forced to act and talk. Seriously guys who casts this guy?!!

When you have both your central characters played by these people no matter what content you push out it wall fall flat.

Please avoid this movie at all costs, and tell anyone you know not to watch this. Good lord!

The movie falls somewhere between good and bad. It has noticeable direction flaws and even experienced actors deliver subpar performances. The script lacks originality, and when compared to "Mukundan Unni Associates," it falls short in greatness.

Nevertheless, it's a decent watch. In the last few minutes, Vineeth Sreenivasan nailed the entire show with his humorous mannerisms, and Sreenivasan, known for his witty dialogues, makes a commendable return to Malayalam cinema. It's heartwarming to see father and son sharing the screen.

All in all, it's not a terrible choice for a movie night. Keep your expectations in check and enjoy it as a time-killer.

The film reminded us a lot of 'Mukundan Unni Associates', where a struggling main character uses cunning means to make it in life.

Hence, there was sadly nothing extraordinary

DELICIOUS

-As expected, Vineeth does not disappoint when it comes to being the comedian. He always delivers the funniest lines with a straight face😆

It was nice to see Srikant Murali in a comic role!

-Impeccable work done on the sound effects which accentuated inspector Dinesh's numerous mishaps

BLAND

-Kurukkan had several long scenes; e.g, the opening courtroom scene took about 20 min; even though this was meant to introduce Sreenivasan's character, it felt very tedious and could have been done differently

As a result, we weren't well directed as the focus was placed on areas that didn't matter much

-It wasn't Shine Chacko's best rendition. His appearance was sloppy, he looked tired, and wasn't as memorable as he usually is

-Overall, there wasn't much to take from the film. It was the common mischievous scheme to win a court case. There were unfortunately no sizzling elements that made it fascinating.

"oola" film like the name of one of the characters. Very bad film making. There is nothing good about this movie especially with such a star cast. Over acting by everyone - guess they were made to. Court scenes very similar to the ones in the recent movies. Looks like they were "inspired" by lot of movies. Waste of time, money and effort.
