Vettam

Out and out comedy entertainer from Priyadarshan. Fun to watch movie with a good set of songs. A must watch during your free time!

My rating - 9/10

This movie is definitely a must watch, the scenery and the plot just blends nicely. The songs are just superb and even after all these years this movie is one to definitely watch again and again.

The first half has the right amount of sentiments, comedy, and romance that it hooks you in. Its not a masterpiece or anything but an enjoyable film for that much time. The chemistry between the pair is good. Kalabhavan Mani has some good comedy scenes. The village scenes are very beautifully shot. The music especially Mazhathulikal is great. It's the second half that completely ruins the film. The terrible side plots about a bunch of nobodies is irritating and unfunny. The amount of times they try to do slapstick comedy and fail is more laughable than the jokes in the films itself. It is very clear that the film is meant to be a hindi movie or a remake of it. The climax is one of the most wtf moments I've seen in malayalam. There is a bound where it is acceptable to cross logic, and this film takes that to 11. It felt like a movie for kids instead of everyone. Definitely stop after the interval if you want to save your sanity.

"Vettam" is a delightful Malayalam comedy that has stood the test of time. Released in 2004, this film continues to tickle the funny bone of audiences even today.

One of the standout features of "Vettam" is its outstanding soundtrack. The songs are not just catchy but also beautifully composed, adding a layer of charm to the overall experience. The music enhances the storytelling and sets the perfect mood for the film.

Comedy is at the heart of this film, and it doesn't disappoint. The comedy scenes are uproarious and keep you laughing from start to finish. The timing of the actors is impeccable, and their performances are top-notch. However, one thing to note is that the humor in "Vettam" is very much rooted in the Malayalam language and culture. As a result, some of the jokes may not land as effectively if watched in other languages. This is where the film's authenticity shines, but it also means that viewers from different backgrounds might miss out on certain nuances.

Fun to watch with few good songs, great message. Pretty girl. Dilip brought a little freshness to the screen with his style of comedy. Few unnecessary scenes towards the end in the Hotel. Overall it's watchable again.

Watched on Amazon prime.
