Sara to Mike
jojivadakara21 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The story strength is not strong . It's a one time watchable movie the story telling slowly.acting it's ok feeling all work is good. Abraham John first producing movie in Malayalam i have lot of expectation in this movie but i disappointed.

Anaswara try to better acting but the story strength has low then not to work .the background score has good and the song is placement as good is some place Then you can watch the movie never over expectation this has small movie and you like to one time watchable this is my opinion all are opinion not same some you can enjoy the film.this is only my person opinion.

When Good subject gets poorly utilized.....
Saanwithhisstupidthoughts10 November 2022
Felt like I was watching a good subject and at that a first one in malayalam(afaik) focusing on gender transitioning/sex rearrangement surgery & mastectomy being stamped over and over by fights and song sequences through montages after montages.

I liked the songs but the fact that they had tracks after tracks and bgm after bgm on a constant basis throughout the film had me annoyed asf.

The fight sequences were nicely choreographed and the sound effects implemented during those were really impactful and believable.

Anaswara's performance was wonderful and felt compelling throughout while the newcomer was good in his supporting role.

Korch seriousness ode topics okke discuss cheyanundelum nalloru subject ne kittittu athine nalla pole extract cheyyano allel kore koode depthil portray cheyyano povathe athine oru kinda surface layer aaki commercial route over aayi pidichathanu paliyathayi thonnan karanam.

Poornamayum socially relevant cinemas de edel edthu parayan pattiya cinema onnum alle alla.

But one time watchable mwone for timekilling :)

Amateurish acting and editing failed this movie
ShammiHero25 August 2022
Where do they find dudes like this? The protagonist and antagonist all look the same in looks and acting! The character development was downright bad.

Although the topic is socially relevant it did little to nothing to make an impact. It was lazily written and poorly depicted. The editing is so rushed and wonky.

Also, off topic but whats sup with this lead actress( A. Rajan) always saying the same lines over and over agian in every dam movie? For ex: "Oh all these guys are lusting over me cuz im a girl" " I am a girl and poor me" (For ex, TMD and Super Sharanya). Is she the only girl in the whole dang movie? Even better question is, why does her characters make her think she is the best looking girl in town? Pitiful.

She is obv. Being typecasted and its sad that she is agreeing to do the same old character over and over again.

Toxic.. misleading....not progressive... totally transphobic
sreenisree19 August 2022
This is a toxic movie... The movie Missleads people about transgender persons... The movie itself showing toxic musculinity to viewers...Not at all a progressive movie.. it is transphobic movie.

Mistakenly rated one star .. technical error.... I rate this movie zero..A big 0.

Onetime watchable movie
angithashokh25 August 2022
A Decent family Entertainer, one time watchable movie.

No boring scenes.

Overall good perfomance of each character, songs are average. Bgm is good. Cinematography is also good.

Nothing intresting to see there as a cinema. A very teeny tiny content that can be expressed through a short film.
subhashsunfire22 August 2022
Only liked the fight sequence. Also the performence of actors are good even though they are in their first movie. There is no big content or storyline in this film. Cant satisfie the viewers, its a big drawback. According to my openion waste of time and waste of money.

A socially relevant story. Excellent script by ashique akbar ali. Hope this will be a new vison to the world and respect every individual as they are.
amalmuralidharan19 August 2022
This is an excellent display of a vulnerable yet relevant thought by the whole team. Happy that something good is happening in malayalam filim industry and aashiq akbar ali has been excellent in expressing his ideas. A must watch movie for all the malayalam movie fans.

Mike is that woke movie that misses the point.
annmchiramel24 August 2022
In Mike people do a lot of weird stuff like for example changing gender because of societal pressure which is so absurd. The makers didnt clearly do their research. In short Mike has no story to tell and absolutely nothing to change.

Butchered
sskarthikkumar17 November 2022
A movie that Butchers its storyline, its characters, its tone, its message and kills the time using songs one after the other. A movie that Butchers your time, your mind, and your time... False advertising at its best, which tried to ride the wave, but failed to see where the sea was to begin with.

Did i mention, it wastes your time... Cos it really does... From performances you can compare to a kindergarten play, to god awful storyline. The movie works its best to waste your braincells.. As thinking anymore about this atrocity is of moot point.

I will enter some words in this, just so that i can fill the reach the required limit of words for the review to be posted.

Movie with an unique theme!!
santoitty6 September 2022
Enjoyed watching the movie along with friends . How 2 individuals with mental trauma come together to have a better life . Emotions bottled up hero is unique and expressive heroine together makes the romantic yet confusing pitch for the cinema to progress. Good music & Dance number, BGM & fight sequence with spectacular colors of nature lines the backdrop. All the best MIKE!!

Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy.

Different story line
feidasen20 November 2022
The movie looks into a different psychological situation of a girl who thinks herself to possess a male character in her not due to her biological but due to her mental insecurities. People who have gone through abuse and trauma find solace in different things and here the character Sara thought she could find her solace if she can become Mike.

Being a guy could protect her was the thought she had and that's what pushed Sara forward and Antony who was also a broken soul helped her.

The movie beautifully potrays how insecurities makes a person vulnerable and how having someone makes things a little better.

Personally, I like the movie.
