Freedom Fight

I had the chance to watch Freedom Fight and its was after a long time I was watching such an interesting anthology from Mollywood. All the short films where different and unique in nature but was based on the theme freedom. One of my most favorite part was Geetha unchained and also the last 2 short films which discussed 2 important issues of old age and also the power dynamics well. There were certain short films in the anthology which felt amateurish in its editing and also direction which reduced the message in these films.

Overall an interesting anthology on Freedom which could have improved with better direction and editing.

RATED 6/10 Language: Malayalam Media Partner: Sony Liv

The realistic anthology with the stories revolving around issues of containment and the burst of emotions. Each story core subject is unique and presented very well. It is so solid and nice making. The problem with this anthology is that the interest of watching is getting reduced when each next story starts. It becomes more artistic than entertaining one.

If you are expecting some award worthy long shots with some strong story content, this is the one made for you. For me it was like never ending presentation and becoming more uninteresting.

I would undoubtedly say that this is one the most refined politically corrected movie I have ever seen in the last 2 decades. The movie regardless the five shorters unleash a string of social issues that people don't even care. This one is indeed a breakthrough. 5 Carefully knit plots, sewed artfully with subtle acting, candid shots and seamless transition from one to another captivates you.

There have been a lot of anthology released in south india in the past few years but i can guarantee you this is the best and most powerful. Every one in this movie has done a fantastic job. All the parts are good but my fav is the last one.

Freedom Fight was such a bold move in storytelling, touching issues that normally wouldn't appear on screen. We congratulate the screenwriters for such an endeavor👏

Overall, the vibe of Freedom Fight felt like a heterogeneous mixture; it would have been better to make a feature film of each story rather than an anthology

DELICIOUS

-'Geethu Unchained' set a good lead for the movie. Rajisha Vijayan delivered powerful lines and a performance that got us excited, rooting for her freedom from traditional bondage and marriage pressure.

The ending was mind-blowing, the smack on the camera lens was simply fantastic😁

In the second story, here again, we understood the struggle: the screenwriter coughed up some raw truths about female access to toilets.

'Pra. Thoo. Mu.' was painful to watch due to the torture, "viewers' discretion advised". Thanks Jithin Issac Thomas for highlighting the case of feces collectors that most of us are oblivious to

-The editing of 'Geethu Unchained' was creatively carried out, very engaging and amusing.

It was a splendid idea to have Pra. Thoo. Mu in black and white to camouflage some of its graphic elements

-The score of each film merged nicely with the events taking place

BLAND

-The first two stories gave us a great start for the fight for freedom, however, 'Ration' and 'Old Age Home' kinda lost the pace.

It wasn't quite clear what the freedom struggle of was about.

-It's understandable that when you have an anthology each writer will deliver their own interpretation of the central topic; but in Freedom Fight, everyone embarked on separate directions, not remaining true to the passionate spirit of freedom fighters.
