Ishq

Movies against the moral policing have been seen in the malayalam industry in the recent times and i think this is the best of that kind. The first half is really haunting and brings you to the edge of your seats, second half does the same but gives you a different experience. If you're a movie lover and love raw, realistic movies then go for it. Do watch it in theatres

Ishq (Love) is as much about moral policing as it is about the menacing male ego in a romantic relationship as we see in this psychological thriller where characters played by Shane Nigam and Ann Sheetal are caught in a mess while trying to execute young love in a modern Kerala setting. TN.

Great acting by Shine and Shane, brilliantly written move, gave me goosebumps, Ann Sheetal did a nice job, whenever movie becomes predictable something different happens, Awesome ending!

1 Extra star for irritating Shine!

Storyline handles a deadly current issue which happens in our society, and they did well with its structure. The strength movie is cast, what a brilliant performance from Shane Nigam 'nd Shine Tom Chacko, 'nd all other supporting cast did their best. Loved the way they cracked the usual cliche in last minute. Thanks to the makers for this nice movie with a slap to the audience.

I really enjoyed this movie. The director keeps you at the edge of your seat and enthralled after the initial 20 odd minutes of setting the scene. I could really relate to Shane's character as a young suburban boy who can show his guts and courage in a familiar setting around his friends and locality, but succumbs to desparation once he is in unfamiliar territory. I think the director did a great job of showing his vulnerability and confusion cos he wanted to protect the heroine at all costs while he was also battling the fact that whether what he did was right/wrong. I also liked the twist in the end shining light on the male chavunism of wanting a woman to be pure and pristine and Shane focussing all his thoughts and efforts to understand what happened to the heroine. Overall, a good attempt and a good watch.
