Ottakkayyan (2007)
Liked the surprise ending..
I like G. R. Indugopan's books.. This is his directorial debut and hence I watched this movie with great anticipation. He is one writer in Malayalam who doesn't shy away from experimentation and this shows in this movie too.. The whole film is shot at night and in real time.. Overall it was a good theme but I felt this movie could have been made better.. The film does have its moments though.. and I liked the surprise ending in the climax..
On the technical side, it looked like the script needed some more work. Also this was Harisree Asokan's first serious leading role. Obviously he needs a lot of improvement to be convincing.. Rest of the cast does a commendable job.. MJRadhakrishnan's camera work was superb!
Vasthavam (2006)
Pleasantly surprised
I started watching this movie not expecting much. But was hooked into this movie from start to the end. The movie depicts the rise of a young man through the state bureaucracy ranks by all means.. Prithviraj shines in the lead part.. We we can see that Malayalam Cinema has got a new super hero. Other notable performances includes that of Jagathy Sreekumar and Murali..
Dirctor Padma Kumar utilizes the script to the fullest. Whoever has written the script has done a good job. The editing was brisk.
I'll be waiting for more movies from this actor-director combination.. In short I was pleasantly surprised by this movie.
