Romancham (2023)

A nice little comedy but not much horror
15 February 2023
A nice comedy with a touch of horror. Felt like watching the first half of the first season of a series because there was a clear divide in the events and how it is made for it to be four episodes.

The ensemble cast did a great job but Arjun Ashokan scored even though he only appeared in the second half of the movie.

Sushin's background score often feels derivative to me, the same way I feel about Anirudh but both of them are extremely effective in the scenes in the movie that there won't be any complaints.

And how the movie ends was a bit of a disappointment but I kind of saw it coming because I already heard part 2 is coming, so it didn't become a huge disappointment. It felt like they didn't exactly have a clear plan on how to make this film whole and decided to tease a sequel that could be more of a horror and see how it would work out. It wasn't bad per se because of the way the film is structured and claimed to be based on a true story, but it kind of felt like taking an easy way out. Precisely because of that, I don't really agree with adding Horror in front of comedy when talking about the genre of this film.
