Palthu Janwar

Seriously i saw this movie just because of 8.8 rating but this is not true nothing special in this movie get bored in first half i thought second half will be better than first half but it was useless

The film starts off well, and then collapses miserably in the second half. The premise, the people, their problems really helped make the first half more convincing. The second half was more of a stretched version to prove the mettle of the protagonist, to give the character much needed high, and that leads to a bigger issue of characterisation.

The protagonist is weak in every aspects, the initial graph builds up very well and then it strays and leads us to a place where I was wondering what was this movie all about. I felt the protagonist did not led me to any particular emotion where I can connect, everything looked superficial, even his qualms, his humiliation, his sudden spark of anger, all of these came out very casual without any empathy element, probably that could lead us to another aspect, the treatment.

I think movie was short and a bit boring to be honest. Probably because I watched with family and paid close to $100. First half looked like a promising comedy. Second half mostly boring. Even the kids song at the end was boring.

When I went to watch I thought given Basil is actor there will be a lot of comedy. Surprisingly there wasn't much. Shammi Thillkan role looked pretty good and lot of comedy but his was a short role.

I liked the scenery and the village like ambience. Songs were pretty ordinary.

May be it would have made sense to watch myself before taking family. I never review but I think I lost money here. So thought of reviewing. Thanks for reading if you made it this far and sorry if I made you feel bad.

I love slow movies, I love original simple movies, I love low budget cute little gems from Malayalam. But this movie wasn't one of them. There is this guy who is pushed to do a job that he didn't wan't. Good premise and I was expecting a his nice journey which changes his perspectives and growing as a person. But none of these things happen in this movie. He goes there, few things happen and a cow delivers at the end. That's it.

I don't understand the hype of this film, or the box office success. Did I miss something or did I watch a different version on OTT !!

If you love good movies , just skip this one. Watch may be Home once again.

The movie is kinda fell good type...small story..small village... It's about prasoon played by basil Joseph who is kinda animator turned livestock inspector. He is not fond of this job and at end ..as you have guessed he slowly begins to feel attachment to "paltu janwars" Basil Joseph does a good job in portraying the depressed prasoon. The characters played by indrans , shammi thilakan makes the first half interesting. The way prasoon tries to adjust with the rural people and embarrassing moments with his elder sister (unnimaya Prasad) is so good and so real..

Yes, the first half is interesting. But towards the end ,it's disappointing. The ending seems rushed and i think the ending sucks... So I gave 7 stars... I want to appreciate the use of animals in the movie..ah.yes the name itself is paltu janwars. Animal lovers ,look closely you could find hidden animals in various scenes. And the song at end is such a masterpiece.

Yes, the treatment worked for me to a large extent, the realistic approach. The treatment somehow loses its grip to convey the noble thought visually owing to poor characterisation and probably lack of some interesting plot points, especially in the second half.

Performance wise, nothing much to brag about except this should be Shammi's film, he gave a fab performance, the moment his character went offscreen, I felt the film took the downhill.

This could have been a far better & impactful short film.
