ReviewVignesh Raja’s Por Thozhil does come with a ‘message’ for the audience, but it isn’t spelt out in neon. It’s subtle and allows us to arrive at the realisation instead of drilling it into our brains.Screengrab: YouTube / Think Music IndiaThe serial killer genre is saturated with films and web series delving into the psyche of a person who takes the lives of the innocent seemingly at random. By now, the audience that has a liking towards such films (such as this reviewer) is educated enough about why such crimes take place and how the criminal is eventually caught. To make an investigative thriller that has you holding your breath for a good part of the film is therefore quite an accomplishment – and it’s especially impressive when it comes from a debut filmmaker. Vignesh Raja’s Por Thozhil (co-written with Alfred Prakash) translates to the ‘art...

The opening is enjoyable too, with an engagement party in the house, young women dancing, and seniors in the family walking helter-skelter arranging everything. You make out the main characters from the opening animation – three male friends who grew up together, and their families. But just as you are about to warm up to the narrative, the film slips through many holes in the script and hardly ever finds itself back on its feet.

A man is chased and stabbed to death by four others. His body is laid at the Communist party office, and a photo hung with a red garland over it. He has turned into a martyr, taking the hit for the party. The intro becomes a preview of what the film is going to be about: the party workers of the lower rung, who turn into murderers and martyrs, not the leaders. It does not use ‘star’ moments or mass dialogues, in trying to stick with the common man’s tale. Only, in telling a political story, it lacks originality and has little new to offer from what Malayalam movies have presented decade after decade. It casts a critical...

The new ‘young’ film on the block is, on the surface, about sibling rivalry – enacted by two able performers, Nikhila Vimal and Mathew Thomas. But the core of it appears to be the very Malayali tendency to poke your nose in someone else’s business, moral police them and constantly cook up theories about the things they might be doing. The film is themed on a little tapped subject – that of sibling rivalry, as opposed to the love of an ‘ettan’ or ‘chechi’ shown in many Malayalam films – but ends up being an amateur,...

ReviewDespite an underwhelming beginning, director Jofin T Chacko picks up the thread and weaves an intriguing tale.CrisWhen a young woman walks into his home, opening the unlocked door, Father Benedict is not shocked. He calmly asks her who she is and after giving a name she immediately asks for his help in a case. There is no introduction, no formalities, not even curiosity and you wonder if it is going to be a long, disappointing film. For this is how The Priest introduces the character of Mammootty, soon after a disconnected hospital scene and a song. But it is not that the dialogue writers forgot to add those missing lines. If it has to make sense, the movie has to proceed towards the interval when Father Benedict, in his priest's robes and a dog following him, is more properly introduced. A lot of The Priest is written in this manner.
