Taken in a previously unseen manner, Amen promises what it gives by the title, a pure divine comedy. The story has all what is needed in optimum level, along-with an excellent performance by an ensemble cast. The technical brilliance in camera and every other aspect of the film are to be noted. Director Lijo Jose, who had already shown his class with the critically acclaimed movies "Nayakan" and "City of God" proves he is a man to look out for in the future. Fahadh Faasil, Indrajith, Swati Reddy did their roles with full commitment, and so did the film's entire crew. The audience will surely be surprised at the film's way of making, and undoubtedly, the climax was one of the best in Malayalam cinema!
The movie is made to good entertainment package for all age group. Its a movie which has moved away from conventional way of making Malayalam movies in recent times. The plot revolves around the lives of few people around an ancient Syrian Church in a Kuttanadan village called Kumarangeri. Solomon (Fahadh Faasil) is in love with Shoshanna (Swati Reddy) who is the daughter of a wealthy contractor. All the characters have played well and story moves logically well except one scene where the character eats liquor glass. Movie is packed with good humor, romance and a very good climax.The movie moves slowly but suits the story line. Whole story revolves around musical folk band which is struggling for its survival in parallel with a love story which is also struggling to survive. It also depicts the politics of church priests and trusties.Songs are good with a different style. Choreography of the movie is well appreciated. Fahadh Faasil had done with the character with Mani as per the expectation .A Malayalam movie fan of Old days will not be disappointed with Amen,
Amen probably India's first ecumenical movie surely a magical movie indeed. Well i was not that impressed by the script except for the climax but i was more mesmerize how they all executed it. All the actors were performed exquisitely & here we got a new villain (Joy mathew) and he is not Siddique. Among bunch of actor Joy mathew was my best pick-up & his countenance and grudging sound was perfect. Songs by Prashant pillai were aberrant and apt which add feel to the film. Cinematography by Abhinandan ramanjum was transcended, he brilliantly captured all the beautiful scenery of mystical Kumarakom. Direction was fine but pace was stagnate and there were many slow motion which by default unnecessarily increases the running time. It could be better if it get trimmed by at least 20 min. What i liked the most among was the Aura, way they created was terrific & surely renaissance in theism will evoke up at the end when climax get revealed. Amen is ostensibly romantic satire in between which do didactic about faith in theism and gospel.
