Expectations

The remake of a successful film, an anthology with a sea of stars, VKP after Beautiful & Trivandrum Lodge - All these were more than enough to watch the film FDFS

First things First - out of whatever things were shown in the film, i think the main story was that of a struggling writer waiting for a chance to make his debut in film field as Director & the remaining stories in the anthology consisting of his dreams or scripts or something else, seriously i didn’t understand a horse shit - May be becoz the film is crap or its way above my Intelligent & Entertainment Quotients.

If its a faithful remake i wonder how the original one became success and got much critical acclaim coz nobody in the theater understood what the film was about or what the director or writer meant. It was like watching an unedited raw film. the only time people were interested during the entire run length of 1.45hr was during the 'Saiju Kuruppu' episode and the 'Payasam' episode featuring Kunchako Boban & Nithya Menon.

Positives - liked the performances of Meghna S Raj, Kunchako Boban & Nithya Menon, some locations and sets were good. Camera work too was decent.

Negatives - I think practically everything else. A booklet of what the makers meant should have been distributed.

Christopher Nolan films used to leave viewers puzzled at the end, but VKP beat all of them hands down coz it’s a mystery from the very first scene/episode and still is...hope somebody help me out of the misery explaining everything in IMDB or WIKI.

Rating 1.5/5

Verdict: Waste of time and money

Box Office: Disaster

Final Word:

Must watch for every pseudo intelligent people and saviors of ‘brainy’ films out there - and for those with commonsense , who value their money, please stay away .......

NB: Hope Parle doesn't sue the makers for doing his to their premier sweet brand

PS: I am extremely sorry if you found the review harsh, non-sense etc....

Bachelor Party - My Movie Review - Extremely Disappointing 1.5/5

Just like all Amal Neerad films tremendous hype was associated with bachelor party too -- which reached immeasurable heights thanks to the trailer, posters and chart-buster song 'Kapa Puzhuukku'. But like always this one too bits the dust thanks to a faulty script and an absence of good [at-least watchable] story. All Amal's previous films were watchable, but this one beats everything and is just shear torture.

Its the story of 5 childhood friends who when end up turned up in the opposite sides, Kalabhavan Mani & Vinayakan is in search of Asif Ali who is living happily with wife (Nithya Menon) & a kid with the help of Indrajith & Rahman in a hill station. Instead of killling his best friend a Mani decides to join with Asif and turn the table on their boss (John Vijay). What happens next, who will win forms the rest of the story (?).

Amal Neerad hasn't learned a thing from his past experiences, in fact its grown worse, only this time he himself is the producer [co-produced by some Jayasurya]. To say the truth was expecting a watchable stylish entertainer in BP, he even failed to deliver that. 

Even the all hyped came of Prithviraj turned out to be damn squib, was just like an extension of his tarzan antony avatar from Hero for an unnecessary fight scene [only]

The first half began interestingly with lot of quirky [double meaning] one-liners by Rahman & Indrajith but after Mani's into the script writer looks like ran out of stock. The film crashed from that point like a pack of cards.

Positives

1. On-liners

2. camera

3. BG

5. Kappa Puzhukku song[not the visuals]

6. Indrajith Rahman Asif

Negatives

Everything else - even in 2hrs the movie drags like anything. a 15 min story told in 2hrs with 30mins of slow motions. 

Even if u plan to watch the movie please don't take ladies or kids to anywhere near the theater, the movie is violent, lot of double meaning, cuss words

Verdict: EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING

RATING 1.5/5

BOX - OFFICE - DISASTER???

PS: Completely exhausted after watching the movie, so the review may be filled with errors, please bear with me and don't write a review on my review !!!
