Ittymaani: Made in China

Ittymaani Made in China is Mohanlal's latest offering in family/comedy genre. Mohanlal was as good as always as Ittymaani but he couldn't save the movie because of weak script and poor direction. The first half of the movie opens okay with a few comedy elements but the second half is so cliche and utterly boring. Ittymaani Made in China gives some good messages but as a movie, it is a forgettable one.

Seriously I don't know why I watched this movie fully. After the first 10-15 minutes itself I was quite sure this movie is just going to waste my time. The message of the film was good but couldn't execute it well enough to entertain the audience or couldn't give any kind of an emotional attachment. There were a lot of meaningless and boring comedies throughout the movie and a few audience started leaving theatre after first half itself. I didn't find any standout performance from any of it's cast. It's one of the most horrible Lalettan's movie I've ever watched.

Watched it just because of the good reviews I saw online (mostly from the fans I believe), there were a lot of positive reviews saying it's much better than "Love Action Drama", but frankly 'Love Action Drama' was an entertaining movie and a lot better than this movie. I won't recommend this to anyone. If you still need to waste your time, I prefer watching it in any good theatre, so you can have a good sleep at least.

Weak script. First half was watchable just due to Salim Kumar and Hairsh. Second half and climax is super boring.

I gave it 1 because i found no option for a zero. Now if anybody asks me which is the worst movie you have watched, i will say ittymaani. I couldn't believe what i watched, not in a good sense but in a very bad sense. Mohanlal is a legendary actor. I am an admirer of Mohanlal's acting,it was sad to see him this way. Since odiyan something happened to his face. Normally expressions just flow naturally for him. I hope he come back with his natural face like before odiyan. Now it seems like only big budget movies like lucifer suits him not the down to earth simple characters. The movie was torture any way. Siddique was the only relief.

A standard Mohanlal film would involve the main lead acting as an outsider and the story would follow with the hero trying to solve a family's problems. The same old Mohanlal film story has been repeated in this film which we have seen in movies like Drama, Odiyan, Vismayathumbathu or Aaraam Thampuraan and many such films. The Chinese angle of the film, even if it was the main part of the film, proved to be a deterrent in the flow of the film. Mohanlal and the supporting cast enacted there parts well but the cliches shown makes it a strict one time watch.
