    Dear B unnikrishnan Please Stop Directing films

    Ukri your scripts are outdated please stop writting scripts we Audience can't suffer

    B. Unnikrishnan should stop film making for consistently churning out thrash!! Anyways this B. Unnikrishnan -Udaykrishna duo never disappoints for making disappointing movies,they have stamped that benchmark with this movie!! No amount of PR work or threats won't help 'Christopher'..feels really sorry for Mammootty..Just another 'Arattu'

    Mammoty going to face the same fate as Mohanlal Christopher is big Disaster i don't think it will recover it's production cost 20 cr

    All Actors should Stop doing movies with trash Directors and script writers

    Such a waste movie

    0.01/10.

    Even A Seasoned Experienced Actor Make Mistakes

    ***Christopher Malayalam Movie Review***

    Directed by Unnikrishnan B starring Mammootty in lead role.

    Also starring Amala Paul, Aishwarya Lekshmi , Sneha , Dileesh Pothan, Shine Tom Chacko

    Always the dice doesn't throw 12 , post watching i felt.

    Positivity of the Movie....

    1) Mammootty, Mammootty, Mammootty...Its just him. It will be difficult for a cinematographer to take the best shot as evey shot he comes, it just awesome. He delivered the best & that he will do when he has the worst script.

    2) BGM was good

    3) Unnikrishnan Sir film making was quite different. Some shots seems to remind me of your Shaji Kailas sir. Making wise he tried to cover up the age old topic & that efforts needs to be appreciated

    4) Amala Paul gave a fair performance.

    5) No songs, no unnecessary comedy made the watchable.

    Negativity of the Movie

    1) Rapes, violence against women is serious, grave topic but thats not an overnight story. Its happening since years then why in 2023 , this topic needs to be highlighted???

    2) Predictability observed in many areas including the climax

    3) Logical issues behind executing a murder.

    4) Villian performance seems to remind me of his character in Etharkum Thunindhavan movie.

    5) Aishwarya Lekshmi character was just an unnecessary addition just to drag the story further. No notable performance from her side.

    6) Sarath Kumar, Sneha, Siddique and many more but there were just having an extended cameo appearance. An actor like Sarath Kumar why not out of disrespect but it has to be something strong in character when taking his date.

    Overall if Aarattu was a celebration of the Mohanlal stardom, here the writer Uday Krishnan and B Unnikrishnan exploited the stardom of Mammootty but came to be an average.

    One time watchable

    I didn't go with much expectations but B Unnikrishnan and Mammooty delivered a watchable movie. First half was better than 2nd half. Action and BGM were the biggest positives of the movie. Too much violence against woman shown in the movie which may make some families uncomfortable in watching this together. The way of justice was shown the right way as system is corrupt. But many such movies in the past like Chintamani kolacase, kakki pada etc have shown similar script. It's definitely one of the better movies of B Unnikrishnan in recent times. Having said that it's just about average. Definitely worth a watch.

    Three taps on the shoulder of the victim to ensure instant justice.

    This easily is the worst film of 2023 I have seen and I am not looking forward to which other films compete with it. This sad excuse for a film royally wastes a Megastar Mammootty. The writing is tedious and that is a nicest thing I can say about it. More than a biography of a vigilant cop, it is more of a showreel of brutal rapes and murders added just to glorify the lead character.

    Even with the non-linear narrative, there is nothing in the screenplay that could engage. It simply had a template, something worse is going to happen to the girls followed by Mammotty showing up in slow motion either while getting out of his car or walking. Then he kills the perpetrators in an encounter. There is no character arc or even redemption. Everyone around him gets murdered to a point it becomes unbearable to sit through.

    There should be a petition to stop Vinay Rai from signing such characters. His character may be might have worked in 90s or early 2000s but it simply is a dud now. With the scene structure having no head and tail, the writer - director resorting to just one worn out template, this was indeed one of those Mammootty starrer which was outright painful to watch.

    Not recommended Movie-Disaster

    I count not believe thaat the director of Madampi directed this Aaratt and Christopher.

    Its a disaster movie and they should improve on the script witting and direction, They are not developing the skills of direction. They just utilized the stardom of Mammootty, they did jot use the acting skills of him.

    There are many actors from tamil industry which is played an un relevant roles in the movie. This many actors are here in malayalam industry and they could not find the suitable actors for these roles.

    I could not believe, how Uday krishna wrote this type of scripts which has no logic.

    Lookimg for a good movie from this director and script writer.
