Masterpiece

Masterpiece was and is one of the most waited films of this year. Its lead cast comprising of Mammootty, Unni Mukundan, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Poonam Bajwa, a newcomer. The film also houses many young stars who are stuggling to find a place in Malayalam cinema, so kudos to the casting director for such a impressive array of young talents.

The film was touted as a mass, action thriller early on itself. After Rajadhiraja, a miserable failure from Ajai Vasudev, comes Masterpiece. It puts itself against a background of a college, where students are split into several factions. A subsequent crime and its events follow up the film's plot. The acting was commendable by the lead cast, although the quirky handling of the camera made it look kind of ugly. The direction is in all praise for a mass film, which Ajai handled perfectly.

If not titled and promoted as a mass entertainer, Masterpiece would have been a stunning failure. Aside from Mammootty's impressive performance, coupled with some really good fight scenes, Masterpiece falls flat at every department. Unni Mukundan, was not a surprise casting since he is known for his excellence in action roles and scenes.

The entire film hangs on the climax, which may come surprising for many.

Rating - 3.75 / 10.0

I like it... Good movie... But in fight scenes i think actor got some superhuman abilities.... Flying, jumping ... That was tragedy... BGM music is good and overall it's good...

An okay suspense thriller + mass heroism scenes but not a class one. Mammootty's screen presence was good to watch and fights stunts were great. Not a great storyline and screenplay,last 30 mins was very engaging.

I don't understand why this director is always make this kinda action scenes .. it's very awful .. come on .. the time is over .. make some realistic actions .. let this Malayalam industry grow in standard!!

An average viewer can simply guess the climax. There is no logic in the storyline. The guest role of captain raju was a complete disaster. Totally, a bad movie.
