King Fish

Have you returned to your favorite places after a long time? Are you haunted by the guilt of wanting to go back? When you see the old rooms, corridors and courtyards that were once everything, do you feel that the memories are pierced and bleeding? Directed by Anoop Menon, King Fish is a film that tells the story of a man who goes back to the ancestral home of buried memories. The film starts with a romantic comedy track and slowly transitions to a thriller and also deals with a topic of contemporary relevance. Anoop Menon is also posing a bold question to the audience that in a society where the social trial of victims of sexual harassment is much discussed, why can't she reveal her name and walk in the society with her head held high?

Honestly I watched it with no expectations. The IMDB rating is also low.

Over all not bad for an OTT watch.

First part there is some fun , usual Anoop Menon intellectual dialogues , beauty worshiping etc. There are few good characters as well. Towards the end it picks up some steam.

Then in between it is some what boring , some forced feminism , unnecessary buji stuff etc.

It has nothing that worth a theater watch, so I understand why the rating is so low. More like a basic story cooked with Anoop Menon flavor.

Nothing more to write. This IMDb useless char limit is killing the fun of reviewing.

Just a wow flick with a beautiful story lineup Superb songs and nice screenplay one of the most classic one in recent times anoop Menon directorial is mind-blowing and renjith is also good Durga too Songs too impressive and melodious and repeat value Must watch in theaters not wait for ott please It's a visual treat for all audience damn sure Climax is very shocking and fabulous one anoop Menon and renjith scored well durga stealed the whole show what a performer she is and irshad tooo And excellent bgm too addicted one . Niranjana anoop guest appearance was tooo bind blowing one she is vere level 🔥

The movie gets a few things right - the Ranjith character, the coming back to childhood home - nostalgia angle, and the things that happened in the house (not the cringeworthy flirting dialogues mouthed by Anoop himself). But some passable scenes here and there without any coherence or contribution to the main revenge plot (which we know is the main plot in the last few minutes ) doesn't make for a good watching experience. The initial gangster portion, the dialogues on the whole and the final act were underwhelming and I honestly enjoyed nothing in those portions. The boyfriend - girlfriend break up scene was too comical and artificial - though they seem to have been in a living together relationship which is a very progressive thing nowadays isn't it? Putting that into a movie must make it progressive too - or so someone had thought.

Overall - watch if you don't have nothing else to do - Anoop Menon is a good actor, a bad screenwriter and a bad director. He needs to concentrate more on acting IMHO.

Like in the majority of his movies, Anoop Menon plays Anoop Menon under an alternate name. Bhaskara Varma is the typical being a tease lone wolf who likes to remain single. Ranjith might have the vibe of a veteran Casanova in that salt n pepper look. However, effortlessness isn't there in the discourse conveyance. Durga Krishna as Kalindhi is that run of the mill Anoop Menon courageous woman with counterarguments. Divya Pillai is there for one flashback melody. Niranjana Anoop's personality has importance in the story, however there isn't a lot of there as far as degree to perform. Big Fish a great thriller.
