Queen

College nostalgia mixed with social commentary that touches upon a lot of issues that are not properly represented in Malayalam cinema. Though not without its flaws in some situations and dialogues solely for proving a point that doesn't feel organic with the whole picture and a little bit of Royal Mech glorification. But all of that can be overlooked for a debutant director who has managed to make a well made entertaining film with responsibility. The last punchline and some parts do point out some of the misplaced sense of responsibility due to the ingrained patriarchy but it comes from honest and well-intentioned reasons. I can clearly understand that some people will absolutely love this film while others will absolutely hate it.

Considering that it is the debut movie of director and most of them are new faces, movie can be rated very good. Felt that actress overacted a bit in first part. The message conveyed is too good. Any women, any where, any time, is not an opportunity, but responsibility of a Man to keep her safe. God has designed Man to be protector of Women, not destroyer. Great movie to watch.

Today, a lot of filmmakers have a lot of things to say through cinema. A perfect example of such unregulated, uncontrolled puking of everything one has to say through a single film is what Dijo Jose Antony's Queen is. A college drama, a political crime whodunit, a social message, a courtroom drama, and even bits of romance - it is a rehash of everything you saw on the silver screen in the past few years. Queen narrates the inconsistent story of a group of sexist Mechanical Engineering students with nothing better than loafing to do, whose lives change for the good when a female student joins their batch. Logic is out of the window at every juncture of this vapid plot that is as haphazardly written as it is executed. Random sequences with no cohesion in the plot line, hard attempt at humor, and cringeworthy elements make up debut director Antony's overlong and slightly annoying feature film. A jack of all trades, it ejaculates its core message after engaging in foreplay for more than 2 hours. That is what makes Queen a messy failure because it never sticks to a single theme. A melange of multiple genres that never follows a structure - a song here, a sub-story arc there - it does not even conclude a sequence before starting another. The writing is poor, but thankfully the energetic cast make up for it. Not fully developed, they still do a decent job at portraying familiar characters with a cause. If the first half is a charged-up film about college and students intended for the loafing Y generation of today's Kerala, then the second half is for their sisters and unscrupulous brothers. To quote someone on Reddit, Queen is a premature remake of Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury's 2016 hit film 'Pink'. Even if you are a masterful navigator, this is going to wreck you. TN.

This Film Is Attractive In Many Ways. The First Half Of The Film which is 1 - hour long is the highlight of the film. They've Said All About The Mech. Branch. Right From Their Smiling Faces to their department fights... We Can Just Watch the film for this thing... The Department Fight Scene Is AWESOME in all aspects From The Expressions of the actors to the BGM.... It will Give GooseBumps..

I am Giving 9/10 Because Of The Overacting Of THE QUEEN and the serious and dull second half...

Saniya Iyyapan Who've acted as the MECH QUEEN is bad everywhere.. She's Just Overdoing Her Role.....

The Second Half Is The Place where we'll miss the fun of mech branch boys BUT ANYHOW, You Can Watch The Once and the 1-HOUR First Half can be watched as many times as you can because IT IS AWESOME

:I have seen many movies that were set in campus background. Queen outshines all of them with the seriousness of the topic that it discusses. One cannot simply watch and forget it, especially the second half. The first half of the movie is pretty ordinary with usual campus and hostel life comedies, whereas the second half is sufficient enough to evoke some serious thoughts in the minds of viewers regarding the serious social issue that we face in our society. The acting of the artists who played the student characters was average (sometimes even below average), whereas Salim Kumar and Nandhu gave a top-class performance in this movie. The songs were brilliant and convey the feel of the movie very well. Overall, Queen is definitely an above average flick that deserves a watch.
