KuttiSranku - 24 July 2010

 It was a good movie.It was almost a masala-award movie.It had quite a few of the ingredients that makes you feel you have seen some content.It has some ethnic drama scenes , chavittu natakam , beautiful  melodious novel/periodic music.The main character moves from one area to another area conveniently presenting the film-maker the chance to present various sceneries/life styles/dialects etc.

    Mammooty was present in the movie all along beefing up the scenes with his glamor presence.Movie was a good one.There were striking beautiful sceneries from Kerala nature.Screen cuts were amazing snapshots worthy of an exhibition in itself and this was not the stylish scenery that 'Raavana' presented but more of nature where the stress is on the scenery and not on the filming equipment.

      Music is a high point in the movie.Melodious with beautiful rustic touch.Actors have also done a good job.Costumes/makeup have a drama touch to it.

     A good watch. As good as some of the other award movies like 'Oru pennum randaanum' , 'naalu pennungal' etc but cannot compare with 'Elippaththaayam' , 'Thambu' etc.

      Mind is on art as well as on the market here - no complaints.Hence the viewing is pleasant and not dry reality that totally art-centric award movies present.But at the end of the movie, you are not left with much.You just watched a movie you liked.
