Godfather (1991) :
Brief Review -
The Grandfather of All Family Action-Comedies made in Malayalam Cinema. All hail Siddiqui-Lal Duo!!! 1991 was meant to be the Most Memorable year for Malayalam Cinema when they got so Many Cult Films in different genres. Sandesam, Kilukkam, Amaram, Bharatham and Godfather five cult in five different genres, all in the same year. Any other year has competition for that? I don't think so. I have watched 'Hulchul' many times on TV and enjoyed it a lot which was nothing but just a simple copy-paste of this Malayalam Classic. Siddique-Lal who had already delivered couple of evergreen comedies in Malayalam cinema, came up with another timeless script and their direction made it even better. The writing of this film has done half the job as it mixes up multiple elements like Comedy, Action, Drama and Family Values together very nicely and nothing looks outdated or cliched. That's the best thing you know because you are not doing anything out of the world, you are just using same old formulas with some new ideas inspired by youth's references and blend it perfectly by carrying two generations together in one narrative. Two young scions from rival families each pretend to fall in love with the other in order to humiliate their rivals, but end up falling in love for real. Now they must find a way to get married anyhow by convincing or tricking their family members. The entire cast Unit in the film is perfectly suitable to their characters. Mukesh, N. N. Pillai, Thilakan, Innocent, Bheeman Raghu, Kanaka, Jagadish, Siddique and Philomina every single artist has done fabulous in his/her own way. The screenplay is engaging and doesn't let you find any boring moments and that's why the film has high repeat value. If i had not seen Hulchul so many times then i would have definitely watched this one multiple times. Overall, another Timeless Comedy and Must See Product by Siddiqui-Lal.
RATING - 8/10*
