Somehow we had the impression that Kotthu was going to be a thriller by looking at its poster and watching the trailer.
It turned out to be a slow drama with a few fights. The film was presented like a documentary without having a cinematic effect to it
DELICIOUS
-Kotthu illustrated what political party life is about: members who pledge allegiance to an ideology and are willing to do anything, even if it means killing or dying.
-It was touching to see the solidarity between Shanu and Sumesh; they wholeheartedly supported each other as well as their families through thick and thin.
No need to stress how Roshan Mathews can ACE any role😃 He radiated Sumesh's beautiful spirit in a touching way, it almost felt like he was Sumesh in real life!
-Kotthu took the time to spotlight the martyrs' families.
We indeed got to see how the victims' families endured great agony while parties were raging vengeance against each other
BLAND
-The lighting was bright, way too bright for the sad atmosphere of the narrative
-Kotthu had no parallel story; the entire film revolved around Shanu and the party which became inevitably redundant.
Moreover, the movie wasn't quite engaging; it was more like a documentary presenting the facts and acts of political party members and we just sat there as observers.
