Christy (2023)
Movie without Logic
This is the first movie I am watching in theater after many years gap.
1. Lot of logical fallacies, the hero uses Google Maps explorer etc in the movie but then uses a local phone to call her! Why can't he just video call her from PC when he has high speed internet connectivity?
2. No one from the family is aware of both their antics.
3. Till first half it's ok but after that its way to laggy and repetitive. Also the hero's acting needs to be improved. Malvika has outperformed in the acting department even if I just ignore the glamor quotient.
4. Christy is always unsure to speak anything out during critical points of the movie and continues to interact with Roy even though she might not like his likeness.
5. Roy seems to be making palace in the clouds having superficial belief of how immigration checks works and how his love will end up.
6. Overall it felt like the main hero is a dumbo who tailed behind the actress to a flight ticket to Mali.
7. Nothing comes out of the climax and its super unconvincing.
They should have made the climax along the lines that Roy realises his mistake and starts his own venure/ job at Mali ignoring the actress and having made peace that such an relationship would never work and they are just good as mere friends. Instead I feel they wanted to portay like love is blind. Here i would opine the movie didn't show love is blind , but more like love is foolish.
Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey (2022)
Nice movie but lacks basic logic
It felt like Basil Joseph forced himself to make a movie in the same genre after the success of another similar film "The Great Indian Kitchen".
Logical Fallacies:
1. No one can be so good in Karate by just watching YT and practicing at home.
2. Even if we say that is true, the guy also learned Karate from YT, and according to proven human strength, male >female in muscle power. But in movie we see that Jaya is beating a couple a guys at the same time which felt absurd.
3. The climax felt absurd and seemed to be shortened to wrap the films shooting. Since Basil is holding control of poultry farm across that area, under no logical circumstances , he won't be well aware that Jaya has bought the other man's farm. He / his workers will surely know before going to court itself.
Overall, I wished the film would have ended amicably with both accepting their faults(more by Basil) rather than existing "brandishiment" of women empowerment which is common off late for men vs women genres right in Kerala.
Kantara (2022)
Good no doubt but can't match Tumbbad
Both Kantara and Tumbaad have seemingly similar genre.
Kantara's ending is by the end predictable to me.
Personal opnion: Kantara is a good but not grander than currently running PS1 of its time , owing to the latter's magnanimous set.
Kantara is good in showing rural setup and highlighting age old traditions down in Karnataka , however, as the story unfolded, instead of it being a suspense ride till the end, it felt to be dragging us to the end , by again and again showing the hero having sudden apperances of the Bhootham.
All in all a very good watch and i believe native speakers will find it more comfortable to watch than people who watch this with subtitle.
Marakkar: Lion of the Arabian Sea (2021)
Bit lengthy but good historical movie
It's not a mass masala but a good historical movie .
I really liked Pranav's acting . Especially the dance with Kalyani was very good.
Second hand was quite guessable. There were too many subplots here and there, with Kirti Suresh love story. I am guessing it was introduced to give it a pan india appeal.
I would say it is a good movie, but not a grand one. Grand was Bahubali but it's budget was also grand.
This movie was shot in a very short duration amidst pandemic. Have to appreciate the movie and also for the national awards it received.
Overall a good watch ( and not a must watch).
Saina (2021)
Where is Gopichand??
The movie keeping aside the dismal performance of the Parineeti, also fails to showcase the role of Pullela Gopichand as a coach. I think his name is not even mentioned and is played by some other imaginary coach. Her mom gets more coverage than coach .
Probably Saina forgot her roots and okayed such a script. Weird. ...
