Mike

This is an excellent display of a vulnerable yet relevant thought by the whole team. Happy that something good is happening in malayalam filim industry and aashiq akbar ali has been excellent in expressing his ideas. A must watch movie for all the malayalam movie fans.

Felt like I was watching a good subject and at that a first one in malayalam(afaik) focusing on gender transitioning/sex rearrangement surgery & mastectomy being stamped over and over by fights and song sequences through montages after montages.

I liked the songs but the fact that they had tracks after tracks and bgm after bgm on a constant basis throughout the film had me annoyed asf.

The fight sequences were nicely choreographed and the sound effects implemented during those were really impactful and believable.

Anaswara's performance was wonderful and felt compelling throughout while the newcomer was good in his supporting role.

But one time watchable mwone for timekilling :)

A Decent family Entertainer, one time watchable movie.

No boring scenes.

Overall good perfomance of each character, songs are average. Bgm is good. Cinematography is also good.

In Mike people do a lot of weird stuff like for example changing gender because of societal pressure which is so absurd. The makers didnt clearly do their research. In short Mike has no story to tell and absolutely nothing to change.

Where do they find dudes like this? The protagonist and antagonist all look the same in looks and acting! The character development was downright bad.

Although the topic is socially relevant it did little to nothing to make an impact. It was lazily written and poorly depicted. The editing is so rushed and wonky.

Also, off topic but whats sup with this lead actress( A. Rajan) always saying the same lines over and over agian in every dam movie? For ex: "Oh all these guys are lusting over me cuz im a girl" " I am a girl and poor me" (For ex, TMD and Super Sharanya). Is she the only girl in the whole dang movie? Even better question is, why does her characters make her think she is the best looking girl in town? Pitiful.

She is obv. Being typecasted and its sad that she is agreeing to do the same old character over and over again.
