Johny Johny Yes Appa







Kunchacko Boban seems to be the popular pick among Mollywood filmmakers when making family entertainers. After Kuttanadan Marpapa and Mangalyam Thanthunanena, Johny Johny Yes Appa is yet another vehicle that has the actor playing a similar role pandering to the particular audience.

The movie's scriptwriter Joji Thomas' Vellimoonga worked best because it had a conniving protagonist that kept the audience guessing. For Johny Johny Yes Appa, he seems to have chosen a similar character but the result isn't as rewarding.

The lead character, Johny, starts off small by stealing a rupee from his father and letting his brother take the blame in his childhood. However with time, he becomes a thief, while successfully fooling those around him with his charade as the perfect gentleman.

Throw into the mix, cartoonist characters of his brothers Peter and Philip played by Tini Tom and Sharaf U Dheen respectively, who are always compared to Johny's high standards, and a love interest Jaisa essayed by Anu Sithara, and you have the needed ingredients for a slapstick comedy, which seems to be the route that director G Marthandan had pursued for the first half.

However the latter half of the movie switches tracks to become a melodrama after an orphan enters Johny's life, detailing his plans and charades. While Joji has taken care of making the characters come up with unpredictable and funny comebacks, the plot is wafer thin and the second half becomes too much of a drag with it being neither funny or emotional despite the actors' efforts.

Kunchacko Boban is earnest in his effort to play Johny but there is not enough fodder for him to perform in the script. Anu Sithara, Sharaf U Dheen and even Abu Salim play loud, caricaturish characters that evoke a few laughs here and there.

Mamta Mohandas, Lena and Nedumudi Venu appear in cameo roles during the latter half. Even Johny's theft attempts or the climax twist doesn't pack enough punch to offer the viewers an engaging experience.

Kuthiraivaal

  Kuthiraivaal Movie Review:  Manoj Leonel Jahson and Shyam Sunder’s directorial debut Kuthiraivaal brims with colours and striking imagery. This is apparent as early as its first scene, where its protagonist Saravanan alias Freud squirms in his bed, suspecting a bad omen. As some light fills his aesthetic apartment wrapped with vintage wall colours, his discomfort finally makes sense—for he has woken up with a horse’s tail! The scene is set up incredibly, leaving us excited for what is to come. But is the film as magical as the spectacle it presents on screen? Kuthiraivaal revolves around Saravanan (played by a brilliant Kalaiyarasan) and his quest to find out why he suddenly wakes up with a horse’s tail, and on the way, his existence in life. Saravanan’s universe is filled with colourful characters, almost magical yet just real enough—be it his whimsical neighbour Babu (Chetan), who speaks about his love for his dog and loneliness in the same breath, or the corner-side cigar...

Maaran

Even as early as about five minutes into Maaran, it’s hard to care. The craft seems to belong in a bad TV serial, and the dialogues and performances don't help either. During these opening minutes, you get journalist Sathyamoorthy (Ramki) rambling on about publishing the ‘truth’, while it gets established that his wife is pregnant and ready to deliver ANY SECOND. A pregnant wife on the cusp of delivery in our 'commercial' cinema means that the bad men with sickles are in the vicinity and ready to pounce. Sometimes, it almost feels like they wait around for women to get pregnant, so they can strike. When the expected happens—as it does throughout this cliché-ridden film—you feel no shock. The real shock is when you realise that the director credits belong to the filmmaker who gave us Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru, that the film stars Dhanush, from whom we have come to expect better, much better. Director: Karthick Naren Cast: Dhanush, Malavika Mohanan, Ameer, Samuthirakani Stre...

Valimai

  H Vinoth's Valimai begins with a series of chain-snatching incidents and smuggling committed by masked men on bikes in Chennai. The public is up in arms against the police force, who are clueless. In an internal monologue, the police chief (Selva) wishes for a super cop to prevent such crimes. The action then cuts to Madurai, where a temple procession is underway.then we are introduced to ACP Arjun (Ajith Kumar), the film’s protagonist, whose introduction is intercut with scenes from the procession. Like a God who is held up high, we see this character rising up from the depths. In short, a whistle-worthy hero-introduction scene. We expect that Vinoth has done away with the mandatory fan service given his star's stature and will get around to making the film he wanted to make. And it does seem so for a while when Arjun gets posted to Chennai and starts investigating a suicide case that seems connected to the chain-snatching and drug-smuggling cases from before. Like in his pr...
