Oru Jaathi Jaathakam

It's a storyline with a lot of projections of confused understanding, and an attempt to find comedy through it. Seeing the film made me really miss the ability of certain individuals who were able to make everyone laugh a decade and half ago, it was simply fun and often had a clean finish. Nowadays, not many have that skill. Another thing I noticed is Vineeth is perfect now to portrait a Kollam-based character, his energy-level gives off that vibe. I don't know if the curse word used through-out the film is something commonly used around that area or not, and not including other regional expressions made me feel like they were lazy on that end. The ideology of embracing uncertainty or ambiguity is expressed through out the film, and felt like it is the statement that the film was making. Anyhow, not that good and not that bad, but bearable than some recent ones.

Seeing a comedy film after a long time in Malayalam.

Thumps up to Vineet Srinivasan and the director.

Must watch.

Encourage more comedy movies to come.

Fed up with suspese horror detective and crime movies in Malayalam.

Now we want comedy which we missed many years back.

Better way of picturization. All have done their parts perfectly

Vineet Srinivasan in at its best role and acted very well.

Best songs and dances.

Lot of new faces acted well too

Should encourage more comedy movies in Malayalam which we missed in since last 20 years.

Excellent movie to watch in theatre. Don't miss this movie which is a gem.

Rating - 3/5

A fun laughter satire drama conveyed through slapstick humour moments.

The story revolves around a man in his late 30's struggling to find a perfect alliance for him matching the conditions set by him & his family.

Rakesh Mantodi has blended many humorous moments through the story portraying many misconceptions and expectations about married life. M Mohanan who is known for his feel good happy ending movies has moved out of his comfort zone and delivered an out and out family laughter entertainer with some sensible and thought provoking messages about relationships.

Impressive performance by Vineeth Sreenivasan as the eccentric character. Good performances by PP Kunjikrishnan,lady who played Vineeth's mother character,Thaha Thug,Renji Kankol,Pooja Mohanraj & Mridul.

Good Background score by Guna Subramaniam bringing quirkiness and excitement to the story.

A watchable flick with family as a fun relaxed weekend entertainer.

The movie has a very unique storyline with fresh comedy packed throughout the movie.

All actors did a great job and even the newcomers seem to have acted very well.

The film gives a unique and realistic perspective on how arranged marriages work today and also sheds light on the current generation's preferences and choices about their partner.

In my view, this is quite an underrated movie and deserves much more credit than what is mentioned online as reviews.

Music and bgm was okay but nothing outstanding there.

Direction was done very well and there did not seem to be any lag anywhere in the movie.

This was unbearable to watch. Just like M Mohanan's past movies the characters are cartoonish and the comedy is outdated. His movies makes me feel like I'm watching a play(natakam). Aravindante Athithikal is an exception.

Coming to OJJ, the actors have done a terrible job. But with writing and direction like this, I don't think anyone could've saved this movie. Most scenes made me cringe while they were going for comedy. I don't understand why there was so many characters. None of them had any depth at all. It had a satirical nature but it simply didn't work.

It's like the writer found some topics from social media comment box and made a script around it.
