Ee. Ma. Yau / Eesho Mariyam Yauseppu / RIP (2018) : Brief Review -

The greatest exemplar of how to turn a simple realistic story into a stunning Masterpiece! Hats off to Lijo Jose Pellissery for the out of the boundary thinking. Malayalam Cinema has produced many stunning classics that i will remember forever and RIP raises the even higher. I don't think any cinematic brain can think outside of dramatic notions and mainstream proportions like Lijo Jose Pellissery has done with this film. I mean just a simple story an old man's funeral, how possibly anyone can gamble with it and yet deliver something sensational and out of the world? I don't know how Pellissery did it, from where did he got the idea and how he convinced every single thing through his superior execution but i want stand in front of him and give him a grand salute for this wonderful and unbelievable cinematic experience. So, like i said the film revolves around the death and funeral of an older man from the Roman Catholic community in Chellanam. It showcases the events that unfold between two evenings and looks at death from different perspectives and how those beloved ones can go wild and hysteric all over it barring of what that sensitive situation demands. All the actors are at their best natural flow which provides the utter realistic touch to the film. Costumes, sets, art decorations, background score, cinematography, dialogues, screenplay all these aspects are immensely supportive to make the film look that much real. It depicts the exact same events as it happens in our real life after someone's death in the family and the one who has ever witnessed such situations in life will easily notice the quality framework and nuances. I wanted to go with 8.5/10 but i am going with 9/10 only because i believe nobody would ever be able to adopt a regular life event into marvelous and genius art piece of filmmaking like this.

RATING - 9/10*
