    Why does Mohanlal how to act in such films???

    I was never fond of the individual films directed by Siddique. Even if it is critically acclaimed Friends, Hitler or Chronic Bachelor or flops like Ladies & Gentleman & Fukri. For the first time Siddique directs an action film entirely, which turns out to be a disastrous experience for both the viewers and die hard Mohanlal fans. The plot involves Mohanlal being released from prison after serving a sentence of 24 years. How a socially awkward Mohanlal reacts with the changes is shown in the first half of the film after which he portrays a messiah type role in the second half of the film.

    All the cliches which were shown in the blockbusters of the past has been repeated in this snooze fest with over the top action sequences which would put Telugu movies in shame as well.

    Despite these drawbacks Mohanlal stands out with his performance but it makes viewers wonder why does he have to act in such a film despite achieving all kind of laurels. Among the supporting cast the trio of Vishnu Unnikrishnan, Tini Tom & Irshad enact their parts well meanwhile the other supporting actors like Anoop Menon, Siddique, Asif Basra & Arbaaz Khan are wasted because of the shoddy script and lack of character development.

    It is high time that a director like Siddique stops relying on his past laurels and start working on developing a better script (for inspiration let him see Joshiy's latest work). Regarding Mohanlal, it is better that he starts selecting better scripts rather than working in disasters like Neerali, Ittymani or Big Brother after giving hopes of vintage Mohanlal after acting in films like Puli Murugan, Odiyan or Lucifer.

    (Last year began with a dud like Mikhael, this year/decade began with a bigger disaster like Big Brother which should be seen at your own risk. It is also sad that Malayalam Film Industry is declining in the number of quality films even in comparison with a smaller regional film industry like Marathi which produced one of the greatest political film in recent times)

    Sachidanandan's escape scenes are so funny!

    Sachidanandan's escape scenes are so funny! The relatives become excited when they discover Sachidanandan had a heroic past in the prison. They keeps asking about his prison lives and missions during those times. Sachidanandan is tabooed and warned by the intelligence agency and top police officials to restrain from telling those stories which are supposed to be kept confidential. Sachidanandan who does not know how to converse with people and a sort of introvert, escapes from his relatives with his skills attained during his prison lives - breaks the window, disappears from a scene in a flash of a second, and climbs the big walls without any effort. These scenes are shown in a very comical way which made the audience burst into tears of laughter! A neat movie which glues your eyes to the screen...

    Why does Mohanlal have to act in such films?

    I have never enjoyed the individual ventures directed by Siddique. Except for its humorous elements i did not enjoy his hits like Hitler, Friend or Bodyguard either. For the first time director ventures into an action film entirely. But the end result is a snooze fest and continues director's decline in making quality films. What the story promises and how the end result turns would even make die hard Mohanlal fans disillusioned with the film. The film entirely relies on the shoulder of Mohanlal but it dampens out because of its illogical action sequences and cliches involved. Among the supporting actors the trio of Vishnu Unnikrishnan, Tini Tom & Irshad enact their parts well but actors like Anoop Menon, Arbaaz Khan, Siddique, Asif Basra are wasted in their respective roles despite the potential.

    Last year began with a snooze fest like Mikhael. This year and decade begins with a bigger debacle like Big Brother. Director Siddique should take inspiration from director's like Joshiy in reinventing their films according to audience's present liking. Also Mohanlal should become more selective in films rather than acting in disastrous films of such nature. It is a pity that legends like Mammootty and Mohanlal have to act in such films when their contemporaries in other regional film industry or bollywood are trying reinvent themselves with unconventional roles.

    The worst movie of Mohanlal for a long time

    This has to be one of the worst movies of lalettan because there is nothing new in the plot and the execution is even worse. Never expected this from Siddique.

    Illogical, can watch one time - (4.0)

    • Watched in Amazon Prime.
    • Movie is illogical, but can watch one time.
    • Movie is too long (It's more than 2:30 hrs). I watched by fast forwarding the songs.
    • Even though illogical, overall I felt it as a timepass one-time watch movie.
