Red Wine

Direction  :  Salam Bappu
Writer      :  Mammen K Rajan
Starring    :  Mohanlal, Fahad Fazil, Asif Ali

At that the time to taste the seductive Red Wine has arrived. The movie mainly focuses on the life of Anoop (Fahad) and Ramesh (Asif) even though Mohanlal's caharcter (Rateesh Vasuden) is in the movie throughout.   A political investigation thriller set out in the backdrops of Wayanad is what Red Wine offers you.

A charismatic and classy performance of Mohanlal is seen in the movie. Even though his character is not pretty focused in the movie, his did a notable performance. Fahad Fazil is the heart of the movie. This young lad has been surprising the audience from the past 2-3 years and it's really a prestige to say that his acting skills are getting better and better after every  movie. Asif Ali did a good performance compared to his previous movies. The direction of the movie is good. The script is a also good; but lags at times.

In short Red Wine is a watchable movie for some notable performances. And moreover when a legend join hands with 2 notable young stars, there is something that you are looking for.

Ith Pathiramanal

Direction  :  M.Pathmakumar
Writer      :  Babu Janardhanan
Starring    :  Unni Mukundan, Jayasurya, Ramya Nambeesan

The movie tells the story of a a private financier Johnykutty (Jayasurya), who lives with his wife Ambika (Shalu Menon), and son Eldho (Unni Mukundan). Due to some reasons Johnykutty's finance company went broken and he left the place in order to protect himself and came back after sometime. Meanwhile Ambika was raped by a police officer Chevaliar (Pradeep Rawat). Jayasurya got killed by Chevaliar and the story develops like this.

Ith Pathiramanal is a revenge story with no essence at all. The story plot of the movie itself resembles to a lot of old Malayalam movies. A mixture of revenge, violence, romance etc. made the movie a non-logic one. Unni Mukundan's performance was not up to the mark. No expressions were seen in his face. Ramya Nambeesan did a good job. Even though Jayasurya's character was not in the movie throughout, he did a notable performance. The script by Babu Janardhanan was really boring and too shabby. Pathmakumar's direction was also not very impressive.

In short Ith Pathiramanal comes under the list of Malayalam movies which questioned the patience of audience to it's peak.

Rating   :  1.5/5
Verdict :  Below Average

Lucky star is a clean family entertainer. Jayaram performed well and this film is definitely his comeback. Rachana has made a fabulous entry into big screen and she proved that she is highly talented. Mukesh also performed well. The first half of the movie is filled with fun and humor. As the movie moves towards the second half, the movies becomes a bit slow and is mainly concentrated on sentiment and family matters. The direction of the movie is good.
