Unmadham
2026 · Times Of India
Despite chaotic second half, Kunchacko-Shahi deliver novel police drama
Pradhama Drishtiya Kuttakkar
2026 · Times Of India
Passable cop drama, that falters for lack of layering
Balan - The Boy
2026 · Times Of India
While the film has its share of taut moments, the emotions remain surprisingly muted.
Bharathanatyam 2 Mohiniyattam
2026 · Times Of India
A well-scripted dark comedy with small attention to details, such as with the temple deity and a poor, nervous man's babbling.
Ponman
2025 · Times Of India
Ponman is cinematic gold with its brilliant script, acting, direction. While Jothish Shankar had great material to work with, he has taken the movie to another level.
L2: Empuraan
2025 · Times Of India
A mass entertainer needs massy dialogues; this is a big miss in the movie. Empuraan doesn't quite match the punch of Lucifer.
Thudarum
2025 · Times Of India
Jakes Bejoy’s music elevates the scenes, making a real impact in the storytelling. Shaji Kumar’s cinematography is excellent and it is perfectly coordinated with the edits by Shafeeque VB and Nishadh Yusuf. Their collective work lay the ground for the mood of the film.
Identity
2025 · Times Of India
...you are constantly wondering how anyone could write up and then direct a complicated story like this. It’s a pity, because largely, it is well-made with perfectly coordinated cinematography by Akhil George and cuts by Chaman Chakko.
Bromance
2025 · Times Of India
The story and the jokes don't work all the time and you are faced with quite a few cringe moments.
Hridayapoorvam
2025 · Times Of India
On the whole, Hridayapoorvam is a nice, feel good, family film resting firmly on Mohanlal's charm.
Varshangalkku Shesham
2024 · Times Of India
As a film with a strong focus on music, composer Amrit Ramnath has done a solid job. Apart from these bits, a lot of the other humour doesn't really land. Vineeth's script, where the two friends blow hot and blow cold doesn't flow smoothly. And while audiences loved the jokes referencing Sreenivasan or the industry, the rest of the humour doesn't really land.
Thalavan
2024 · Times Of India
An investigative thriller let down by confusing second half
Pani
2024 · Times Of India
Joju George has managed to create an emotional core and cat-and-mouse action that keeps audiences invested in this revenge thriller.
Aavesham
2024 · Times Of India
Jithu Madhavan has already shown that he knows how to do things differently and with style, with his debut horror movie, Romancham. He has delivered another unique comedy with Aavesham.
