CIA: Comrade in America

CIA- a travel for love and meaning of life U CAN WATCH UT FOR A EVENING SNACK TIME MOVIE..its best for it A must watch watch amal neerad film..there is not much of big story but the way the director had made us to feel in this movie makes us great.. Dont expect much in this movie..without expectation watch and get the most fun of it and sure i say climax gives us a worthy satisfaction.there goes the credit to director..and excellent screenplay and amazing DOP BY cameraman.gives us a pleasing throughout the entire movie.. Some drawbacks i feel was..if some story would have been that would been an excellent to dulquer as he can keep this in some good movies list yet its a good movie..it doesnt waste ur time..

Alright, first thing first, the Intro Music of DQ(Kerala Manninayi) made me to checkout Comrade In America and this movie is definitely not about communism or about the communist leaders. It is about the struggle, the hero goes through to reach his lover who is in America without visa and the life lessons that he learns through his arduous journey.

DQ's presence and acting is the only saving grace of the movie. As an audience you neither feel connected nor empathise with any of the characters.

The surprising part of the movie is the casting of Stalin, Karl Marx, Lenin and Che, which was remarkable and they looked so real and believable. Apart from that there is nothing enjoyable about the movie.

CIA is the type of film that you could watch with tight mouth and could relish joy of the beautiful frames moving through the screen. The film explores many themes and fails to deliver it perfectly to the audience. It just switches from one another that you will be quenching the worth of your money till the end , where the film stops abruptly.

Dulquer's acting was great along with the secondary actors who shone brilliantly and their comic appearances burst the theatre into joy.The visuals along with the music was so good that the on screen cinematography and direction needed to cope up with them.

CIA has a shallow plot and a disastrous screenplay and we quite often forget why we are here - what's the film's message ?

I have never waited for a film due to a director and Amal Neerad had done his work quite well. Although we did not see the type of direction as seen in Iyobinte Pusthakam And a short film in 5 Sundarikal, Amal has done justice to his part and has left me happy enough. The film offers great themes for the audience to feast on. Communism , Romance , Don't expect much in life and many other themes frequently found in coming of age dramas and films that have released in many decades over the time.

In short, watch this film on your own risk as never go expecting a film that goes with you, but a film that you must go with. Breathe in the visuals my friend, for the cinematography is great.

My Rating - 7.8/10

Summary (no spoilers)

This movie is about Aji Mathew who is an adorable, fearless and humble youngster, who lives in a place in Kerala called Pala. He meets an NRI girl Sara in collage; they fall in love despite of their background. Their moments of love did not last long so do his happiness.

My Review (no spoilers)

This movie has a really good and unique plot I have not seen this concept in any other movie. It was filled with a somewhat action, a little adventure but not much thriller. Dulquer did his part well he can't be blamed for the way this movie was directed. Karthika has a lot to do to improve her acting skills, Chandini on the other hand got very less time span in this movie but her acting was noticed among the others. The other notable acting would be Siddique, Dileesh, Soubin and Maniyanpilla Raju. This movie had some really good standout songs. Amal Neerad as a director could have done a better job. The ending of this movie was unpredictable and good.

No I would not recommend people to watch this movie.

My Rating 6/10

First i opened Netflix and i was searching for a feel good Malayalam movie then i came through CIA. So i started watching it on an LED with surround sound and then gradually after interval,even the Surround sound system couldn't wake me up from deep sleep !

ONLY WATCH IF YOU'RE A FAN OF DQ :)
