Puzhu

Despite all the shortcomings in the screenplay and the somewhat generic making style, Puzhu stands out for yet another brilliant performance from Mammootty. Playing the role of a retired cop and strict father, he's confidently telling us that there's still plenty of acting fuel left in the tank. One can't help but be reminded of his mysterious performance as C. K Raghavan in Munnariyippu, with added layers and subplots. The whodunnit parts of Puzhu fail to fire on all cylinders, even with writers like Harshad, Sharfu, and Suhas on board. The film also briefly touches upon casteism and social stratification but these aren't explored beyond the surface. Puzhu rests entirely on Mammootty's shoulders (the child actor also deserves a special mention), and I can't wait to see him expand his repertoire further as a septuagenarian.

Not at all impressive, poor script. Only good thing in the movie is the innocence of the child and Ekkas acting.

Good that it did not release in theatre's.

3/5.

Movie overall is a decent thriller which is a slow pacer. It feels amateurish in certain scenes but can be overlooked in overall. Now comes the part which makes this movie a worth all your time , a single name Mamooty. At this age when other actors are selecting scripts only on the basis of amount of mass scenes in it , this guy is doing such roles and giving out outstanding performances. Everyone did a good job in the acting department but Mamooty overshadowed everyone with his performance. We should not let this movie fail so that we get actors getting out of their safe zone roles.

The Movie Is An Emotional Crime Drama. It Talks About The Relationship Between A Father And Son Which Is Not So Good. And Other Social Issues Created By Him Through His Mind. Its A Good One To Make In This Age. Hats Off To Mammotty Sir. You Did A Great Job By Portraying Different Shades Of The Character. Everyone In This Movie Gave Their Best. Still Mammotty Sir Stole The Hearts. He Still Vibrant In His Roles. Its Much Different From The Other Police Character's Done By This Man. Puzhu Is Worth Watching For This Performance. Alert This Movie Is Slowly Paced One. So It Is Not Everyone's Cup Of Tea.

I am not a malayalee but fond of watching the malayalam movies , Puzhu is a good movie ,nice performances,. BUT in all these kind of movies , Bad guys are from upper caste and highliting the rituals and Yagnopaveetham (Sacred thread over the shoulder), please come out shell, think beyond communist kerala (anti hindu)
