Valiyaperunnal

I dont understand Malayalam well. Still watch Mallu movies. I think the slang used in this movie is something different. I liked the action sequences. The songs are also little bit different. I felt so.

The only reason I'm giving it an extra half star is because of Rex Vijayan's score. The storyline is a convoluted mess with too many inconsequential characters. A couple of new talents (in the cast) seem fine, but the rest either awkwardly ham it up or are terrible. The writing, for a movie where the location is a character of its own, lacks finesse. The dialogues are often ridiculously condescending. Mattanchery & Fort Kochi looked much better in Soubin Shahir's Parava, both from storyline and aesthetic standpoints. Even stupendous actors like Shane and Joju put up half-hearted efforts. Himika Bose looks pretty, but like 99% of the cast, plays an inconsequential character who shows up intermittently. What was Soubin, Alencier, Captain Raju, and Atul Kulkarni doing in this movie? At 2 hours and 55 minutes, Valiyaperunnal is a total borefest.

Difficult to connect the sequences. But the attempt was good. Malayalam indusry has only few actresses who can dance like a pro. The actress in this movie is a promise.

This was my most awaited movie of the Christmas season. I was hoping that it is not another Double Barrell.

Unfortunately, it is another Double Barrel meets Parava meets Angamaly Diaries. The film does not work at all. Imagine a heist movie where the heist itself isn't important but the story of a place and it's characters are. But the place and characters are nothing great. The dialogs are awful.

But I'm certain about one thing. Shane Nigam is a huge future legend. What a talent. He really lights up the screen when he's on. Does a great job in action scenes. Reminds me of a young Mohanlal.

Such a bore .I think the writers didn't have a clue about they should write. Such a jumbled film , not worth it .
