Movie Review : Ezra - A Treat For Horror Lovers
The brilliant execution trumps the cliches associated with a horror flick, Voices Sriram

‘Your worst fear comes true' is the tagline that Ezra came with. For a lot of reasons including its trailer, teaser and Prithviraj Sukumaran's habit of taking Malayalam cinema to the next level, Ezra was thought of as the first fully fledged Malayalam horror film. 

More than a month before Ezra's release, the Rahul Raj's 'Lailakame' came up as a chartbuster. Back ground Music is often regarded as the life force for a horror movie. Ezra's life was safe in Sushin shyam's hands as his tunes contributed immensely to the adrenaline rush in the audience.

Movie Review: Fukri - Bright Start Crash Lands At The End

All the build up falls apart like a castle of cards, voices Sriram

Fukri starts off on a bright note giving hopes of a breezy entertainer. The elements for an out and out fun ride were being set up in terms of the trustworthy plot of character mix up and an array of comedians.

Hrithik Roshan puts up a mesmerising performance, which proved to be the soul of Kaabil. All the hard work he had put up for the movie bore fruit as it ends up as one of his finest performances. Yami Gautam complemented him nicely to portray Supriya.

Movie Review: Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol

Movie Review: Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol

Despite its imperfect script and slow execution, Munthirivallikal is set on fire by the typical Mohanlal everyone loves, says Sriram.

Mohanlal's charisma when he dons romantic roles can be quite deceiving. It can make the audience forget the shortcomings of the movie that they are watching, and enjoy the so called 'Lalism' happening before them.

'Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol' is the latest addition to that list. After a prolific 2016, Mohanlal starts his 2017 with Jibu Jacob who silently turned his first touch into gold.
