Shylock

Although I watched Big Brother on its release date last week, it was too soul destroying of an experience to write a review on. The release of Shylock today fared no better, underscoring the lack of quality writing and a story backbone in Malayalam cinema's attempts at mass entertainers these days.

Shylock is just a mish-mash of classic Tamil movie punch dialogues and slow motion sequences strung together with not even a single attempt by the director to form characters, back stories or genuine plot points.

Directors have to stop banking on just the superstar persona of Malayalam's two era-defining megastars and write characters and scripts that play to their acting strengths.

Awaiting Sachy's Ayyappanum Koshiyum and hoping it will offer a much better filmgoing experience.

A One time watchable nbelow average movie which director made only for mammookka fans. Okayish first half with poor second half and cliche revenge story which makes this utter scrap.mammooka have to avoid these kind of roles. Waste of Both Money & Time. 👎

As a mammootty fan pls don't watch and waste your money😭 Trust me when I say I'm one of the biggest mammootty fans. If you wanna watch a good mass mammootty movie watch bheeshma parvam it's really good top class stuff. This movie is a disgrace to mammookka.

JUST AN AVERAGE MOVIE......IT HAS NOTHING IN IT EXCEPT FOR SOME MASALA STUFF....... HIGHLY OVERRATED.....JUST WATCHABLE IF U DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER MOVIES FOR A NORMAL PERSON WHO IS NOT A FANBOY OF ANYONE....

Ofcourse Mammootty did well, but this movie is an illogical non sense. " Really surprised to see so many good reviews for this movie. "Mass movie" means showing nonsense with a high definistion camera and mind blowing background sounds ? First half is ok with some entertaintments but the scrip writter could have avoided the clownish acts of mammotty which is so annoying even for his fans . Second half is an illogical story showing the killings of almost everyone and how that can be an entertainer.?? I don't think anybody could watch this with full comfort for hours of extreme violence killing all good and bad charactors one by one with knife and gun . Atlast only mammotty and his brother are alive ?? . I always admire mammotty but really wonder how he is not not getting involved in editing the nonsense clownish part of himself and reduce the uncomfortable mass killings and extreme long violence ? If this movie make money ,that will be only due to Mammottys image and looks . This scrip writer and director should get zero rating and should not be in the field.The audience definity would have watched this seciond half of extreme violence and killing with extreme discomfort. killing around 50 people one by one with knife, sword and gun, good and bad. Is it really entertainement ?????
