guppy is the only Malayalam movie that made feel complete recently, and I have no words other than superb! to describe master Chetan's and Tovino's acting. it was simply mind blowing. while watching this movie we can see each character has story behind then and that's why I decided to write my first review in IMDb for guppy.

Guppy is a malayalam language drama film written and directed by Johnpaul George.The protagonist of the story is a boy known as guppy, as he sells guppy to earn a living.The boy works in a teashop and sells guppy to look after his mother,whose lower half of the body is paralyzed.But events turn out when a rivalry arises between him and an engineer Thejus Varkey who came there to construct an over-bridge in the area. The best word to describe the film would be 'Beautiful'.Yeah,it is beautiful in every sense-the cinematography is beautiful,the music is beautiful, the performances are beautiful,the direction is beautiful even the script is beautiful.Ever aspect of the film deservers applause-the direction,screenplay, cinematography, music,performances, editing, makeup,art direction, costume design,make up everyone has done a brilliant job.This is one of the few films in which almost every actor has given a 'perfect' performance.You could hardly point out any actor who has either overacted or underacted.Despite not having a great story,what makes guppy so good are it's characters,out of which many remains in our heart even after watching the film.Every character has been carefully written.The backstories along with the simplicity of the characters play an important role in making them so good.Eventhough the script was well balanced the 'automatic wheelchair' plot proved to be a disturbance.Both the background score and music was perfect for the 'beautiful' script along with the splendid visuals which at times seemed 'too good'.Eventhough the film had a lot of subplots(some of which could have been reduced)and the narration has a medium pace,it rarely test's your patience.It deals with many subjects like friendship,love(both mother-son love and girl-boy love),revenge,hope,loses but the theme which the director tried to convey at the end was unclear.But in the end it proved to be a beautiful tale which is not only a visual but also an emotional treat for the audiences

The story revolves around a boy nicknamed as Guppy(a kind of fish) played by Chethan Jayalal. The movie invites us to travel through his life, his affection with his mother, friends and many more people who love him. With the introduction of the engineer(Tovino Thomas) into the plot, events take a turn. The main strength of this movie are its characters. They are like perfectly carved sculptures. Even the characters appearing in one or two scenes have their own importance. Music suits the process of story telling perfectly. The performances by all artists were excellent. The director(and writer) Johnpaul George should be appreciated for handling this story that glides through various emotions and situations with exceptional skill. "Guppy" makes you think, feel and will remain in your mind for quite some time.

A movie with substance. Many of us will find ourselves in each one of the main characters. People whom we often perceive as bad, are not necessarily bad in reality. When driven by the harsh realities of life, we often come across negatively in the eyes of people around us. The storyline conveyed this message beautifully with its three main characters. Script was good and songs were beautiful. Enjoyed cinematography thoroughly. Each frame of the movie had shades orange and blue; formed something sort of a theme. Very good acting by Tovino Thomas and Chethan Jayalal. Great work by director John Paul George and team. Wish there were more movies of this genre.

The story revolves around a boy named Guppy who finds his living out of rearing and selling the small fish Guppy. Guppy has this dream of buying an automatic wheel chair for his ailing mother. An Engineer comes to the seaside village for the construction of a railway bridge. Many unexpected things occur when a small rivalry starts between Guppy and Engineer. All characters in this movie will remain in our hearts for a while and all characters have some important role too... In this movie we can see the amazing cinematography, super bgm scores and good songs.. I promise you, this movie will get into your favourite movies list..
