Ishq

Movie started off slow with typical Shayn Nigam all smile and in love. Then the pace picked up once Shine Tom came on screen. After the interwell it really made us on the edge of our seats. The best thing about the movie was the climax. I don't want to spoil it for you but you are going to clap if you are not a misogynist. Well done team

"Ishq" Malayalam movie Cross section of the today's world shown in 2hours and 15 minutes. The movie "Ishq" is all about the love affair of an young couple, moving through contemporary affairs of present Kerala, like public ogling and sexy remarks on couples, moral policing, frustrations of young men and insecurities of dames. Shane Nigam as the reckless youth lover, played his part with ease.... his 'don't care' attitudes changing to revenge mode is excellent. Shine Chacko fits into the anti-hero character well, his facial expressions are superb. Ann Shethal as the timid dame is good and strong ... especially at the climax, when she takes the lead to express her bold decision. 7.5 on 10 for this thriller movie, which comes with a tag line... 'it's not a love story' It's a blow to the society for keeping women as sub-standard citizens, it's a blow for the hyper-inflated male egos. "Ishq" ... Love is a triangle of Acceptance, Understanding and Appreciation ... remove anyone, the love triangle falls. Must watch 'Ishq' ... If you are seriously in love or planning to love... because Love is not 'child's play'

Really this is an amazing movie, acting and direction and finally screenplay is amazing, I think there will very few movie like this ever made in India, While watching this one thing will be always roaming in mind 'what next' I am a little be disappointed that this movie has got very few ratings.

Love it like it bottom of the heart.

I really enjoyed this movie. The director keeps you at the edge of your seat and enthralled after the initial 20 odd minutes of setting the scene. I could really relate to Shane's character as a young suburban boy who can show his guts and courage in a familiar setting around his friends and locality, but succumbs to desparation once he is in unfamiliar territory. I think the director did a great job of showing his vulnerability and confusion cos he wanted to protect the heroine at all costs while he was also battling the fact that whether what he did was right/wrong. I also liked the twist in the end shining light on the male chavunism of wanting a woman to be pure and pristine and Shane focussing all his thoughts and efforts to understand what happened to the heroine. Overall, a good attempt and a good watch.

This movie truly lives upto the tag that they advertised, 'not a love story'. Since they already told that, anyone would expect something different to happen when the movie starts, and thats definitely the thing that you get from this movie. The turn of events in both the first half and the second half of the movie is insane. It has managed to capture every bit of attention. Thriller to the core. The direction and screenplay is refreshing. I definitely noticed the amount of work done in direction, it added more clarity. The cast again is another strong point of the movie. Definitely not a big cast, but has done their job perfectly. The story is awesome. Raises voice against a major social evil that has gained popularity in India in recent times. Overall a very good movie
