Kurukkan

I've saw many reviews on IMDb saying "oola" film. Actually I'd say yes but also no. Cause there's comedy in this film. So watchable. A down-on-his-luck not down-on-luck, but absolutely low iq - police officer tries to frame his crime to an innocent man but it soon backfires on him. Direction wise I didn't like much. My question towards every Malayalam film directors is "WHY DOES YOUR FILM COLOUR GRADING EXACTLY SAME AS OTHER FILMS" Absolutely I hate, it's always colourful. For this film slightly red theme would match. I'd recommend this but not for family audiences cause they show middle finger.

"oola" film like the name of one of the characters. Very bad film making. There is nothing good about this movie especially with such a star cast. Over acting by everyone - guess they were made to. Court scenes very similar to the ones in the recent movies. Looks like they were "inspired" by lot of movies. Waste of time, money and effort.

Kurukkan (2023)

A police officer try to frame a innocent paper boy but it's not workout... Because that paper boy seems good hacker and intelligent soo it backfires to him... Good story and poor execution... One time watchable movie..!

Other review... A self deprecating police officer who is down on luck and hasn't had any career promotion's tries to frame an innocent to make fame, but it backfires on him.

I kinda had a good feeling about the movie thinking it's Vineeth Srinivasan and the guy wouldn't go anywhere near a below average movie, Guess I was wrong entirely!!

The script is actually not so bad i would say, but the casting totally ripped it off! A lot , i mean a lot of scenes feel pretty cooked up and the characters are making a fool out of themselves throughout this film. The background scores seem sarcastically funny,maybe the director intended the same. However the dubbing totally went south with the character of shine tom Chacko, the lip movements and the dialogues are totally out of sync like even a kindergartener can figure that out. In many scenes especially on the second half of the movie I felt like shine was pretty much behaving like an MDMA junkie who's about to loose his it. The character enactment by all the peeps on screen are subpar and even a noob film school fresher might have put them to shame. Also no genuine logic applies here on screen while they are trying to show a hacker at play with shine and others. The ip addresses shown are common subnet numbers any tech savvy human can make out also the data recovery screen they show is almost like some stuff from kochu tv.

It's 2023 and they are still doing this!! #facepalm The only thing I liked about the movie was the climax and a lil comic acting from Vineeth for a couple of minutes. I would definitely not encourage anyone to watch this.

The film reminded us a lot of 'Mukundan Unni Associates', where a struggling main character uses cunning means to make it in life.

Hence, there was sadly nothing extraordinary

DELICIOUS

-As expected, Vineeth does not disappoint when it comes to being the comedian. He always delivers the funniest lines with a straight face😆

It was nice to see Srikant Murali in a comic role!

-Impeccable work done on the sound effects which accentuated inspector Dinesh's numerous mishaps

BLAND

-Kurukkan had several long scenes; e.g, the opening courtroom scene took about 20 min; even though this was meant to introduce Sreenivasan's character, it felt very tedious and could have been done differently

As a result, we weren't well directed as the focus was placed on areas that didn't matter much

-It wasn't Shine Chacko's best rendition. His appearance was sloppy, he looked tired, and wasn't as memorable as he usually is

-Overall, there wasn't much to take from the film. It was the common mischievous scheme to win a court case. There were unfortunately no sizzling elements that made it fascinating.
