Kilometers and Kilometers

A new movie of an upcoming star of Malayalam movie industry released directly to a satellite channel had raised much expectations. Right from the title to the promos viewers were expecting a road movie. It starts ok. But then gets confused on which direction to move on to and ends up being a mishmash of genres. The lead actor who's had some nice movies hams it up over here. Nice locations, a couple of good songs and a hope that things will turn for the better is what keeps us going along with this poor effort on storytelling. Eventually one ends up realising it is beyond redemption. I watched this on cable network and am not sure if the channel had further edited the movie at their end which turned the movie for the worse. It was the premiere show of the movie released on cable channel and this was my take away.
