Spadikam

One of the Gretest Movie from the malayalam movie industry ... The story of the Movie is Nice .. 'ADU THOMA' is well in professional things but his father 'THILAKAN' sir does not interested his activates. Due to his father torture 'THOMA' become a criminal .. Overall ' A MUST WATCH MOVIE'

This movie whose central character Adu Thoma Is A film of both class and mass. Aadu Thoma is a mass action hero. But he is still not essentially larger than life. Thoma is a rogue. He doesn't fear anything. He thrashes policemen. But to Bhadran's credit, he still keeps Thoma grounded. Unlike other mass characters Mohanlal portrayed later, Aadu Thoma hasn't traveled to foreign countries after he fled his home as a child. He hasn't learnt music, other skills or achieved great things. In fact the movie doesn't really talk about what he did the 14 years he was away. Thus This Film is a must watch for every film lovers.

This movie is filled with action and may be be best known for the signature Mohanlal-mundu attack, but the father-son relationship is the center-stage for the whole movie. Some scenes are very moving. For example, the scene where Thoma's father is to invite Thoma to his sister's wedding, Mohanlal driving the lorry in anguish, the hospital scene, and yes, the climax.

Mohanlal doesn't have a chiseled body or bulging biceps. But his gait, body language, dialogue delivery - all ooze masculinity. Wonderful acting by Mohanlal and Thilakan. This movie seems something at first, but turns out to be something else.

The story (based on a real-life person), background score and acting all fit into place. A definite watch and an all-time Malayalam classic.

This fine movie is director Bhadran's sole saving-grace.

One of the best performances By Mohanlal and Thilakan. Backed up with a very good story and direction which leaves a raw image after u come out of the cinemas. I pity that friend of mine who mentioned about the film as just a mediocre one!!! Wonder why films aren't being made of this class in the current malayalam film industry. Its rated as Mohanlal's, who is considered as one of the finest actors in the industry, one of the best performance so far in his career. The Mohanlal-Thilakan combo scenes are a treat to be watched. Cant really rate who's better. Aaduthoma,the protagonist of the story, is one of the finely etched out characters by the Director-Writer Bharathan. The real life-like characters which used to appear in malayalam film industry as in Sphadikam is gone missing.

This movie is a real gem. It has everything in it to entertain us. We can see Thilakan and Mohanlal, they really challenged each other when portraying their respective characters and the result was precious. Thilakan as Chacko Mash a strict school headmaster and Mohanlal as Aadu Thoma who turned out as a local Goonda hold a grudge against his father for the stubbornness he imposed on Thoma and spoiled his life. All other characters done by actors like Nedumuti Venu, Rajan P Dev, KPAC Lalitha, Chippy, Urvasi did their part very well so that every part of the movie is so interesting. This movie is timeless.
