    Concept wins the Mark

    The movie was a good one. I felt it like two parallel world's joined together to convince the audience. The movie could be shot as two different films.

    Adventures filled ..travel for fun in America

    CIA- a travel for love and meaning of life U CAN WATCH UT FOR A EVENING SNACK TIME MOVIE..its best for it A must watch watch amal neerad film..there is not much of big story but the way the director had made us to feel in this movie makes us great.. Dont expect much in this movie..without expectation watch and get the most fun of it and sure i say climax gives us a worthy satisfaction.there goes the credit to director..and excellent screenplay and amazing DOP BY cameraman.gives us a pleasing throughout the entire movie.. Some drawbacks i feel was..if some story would have been that would been an excellent to dulquer as he can keep this in some good movies list yet its a good movie..it doesnt waste ur time..

    NOT UPTO THE EXPECTATION

    FILM LACKS A GOOD SCREENPLAY. THE PROTAGONIST PLAYED BY DULQUER SALMAN IS A COMRADE WHO IS FALL IN LOVE WITH A GIRL. BUT SHE LEFT AJI MATHEW ( DULQUER ) BECAUSE HE DID NOT LIKE TO LIVE IN USA WITH HER. SARAH ( THE GIRLFRIEND ) IS AN USA NATIVE WHICH PLAYED BY KARTHIKA MURALIDHARAN.

    IT IS JUST AMAZED THAT THE FILM IS DIRECTED BY THE AMAL NEERAD WHO DELIVERED THE POWERFUL MOVIE LIKE IYYOBINTE PUSTHAKAM .THIS FILM COMPLETELY HIGHLIGHTING ONLY THE STAR VALUE AND STYLISH APPEARANCES OF YOUNG SUPERSTAR DULQUER.

    FILM DID NOT CONVEY A GREAT STORY LINE RATHER IT PRODUCED THE SITUATIONS OF ILLEGAL EMIRATES IN USA. AFTER FINISH WATCHING THIS MOVIE ESPECIALLY THE CLIMAX AS A VIEWER IT DISAPPOINTED EVERY REGARD.

    Stylish Intro,Comedy First Half,Adventure Second Half

    Comrade in America is one of the most awaiting movie of the year.

    Amal Neerad,The Man Who Give Audience a New Treat has Not Gonna Gail Here.

    i Watch the film In First Day First Show.

    Positive

    *Great Direction *Great Cinematography *Nice Character Sketch(Especially Aji Mathew as Dulqar Salman) *Dulqar Does His Best *Supporting Cast Steal the First Half(Especially Saubin and Dileesh Pothen) *Mass Intro In Dulqar's Career *Unpredictable Twist

    Negative

    *Second Half is Very Lagging And Boring *Heroin's Acting is not Satisfied *Not Much Better Than Other Amal's Film

    One Time watchable

    First i opened Netflix and i was searching for a feel good Malayalam movie then i came through CIA. So i started watching it on an LED with surround sound and then gradually after interval,even the Surround sound system couldn't wake me up from deep sleep !

    ONLY WATCH IF YOU'RE A FAN OF DQ :)
