Manjummel Boys, directed by the Chidambaram who gave us Jan e Man, is a brilliantly made film based on true incidents.

From the very first scene the director transports us to the centre of the story, the friends trip will make us feel as we are with them. The acting department is lead by Soubin and Sreenath Bhasi, honestly there isn't much space for them to perform but Soubin has done a good job in that, Bhasi doesn't have much screentime.

Now coming to the main highlight of this film, Sushin Shyam! Dude has hit it out of the park with the background score, at times it felt like a horror movie with his haunting scores. Sushin really elevated this movie to a whole another level.

Overall this a great survival thriller film that is elevated to another level by the music.

Watch it in a good theatre to fully experience the background score.

Vineeth Sreenivasan is an extremely talented person, his songs are heartwarming, his direction although feels cringe at time usually is good, but acting is not his cup of tea and of late he has been type casted as an eccentric character as in this film.

Another actor that i have zero opinion about is Shine Tom, he was good some years back like in Ithihasa and all but of late his acting is so clumsy, his dialogue delivery is atrocious. I see no acting chope on this guy that so many people choose to cast him. In this film it felt like he was forced to act and talk. Seriously guys who casts this guy?!!

When you have both your central characters played by these people no matter what content you push out it wall fall flat.

Please avoid this movie at all costs, and tell anyone you know not to watch this. Good lord!

1001 nunakal is made as a slow burn drama of relationships and bonds.

The story is dull and the acting is overly dramatic with every bit of artificiality possible. There is nothing engaging in this film, there are a bunch of irritating characters talking nonsense.

Vishnu Agasthya is the only one who put up a honest performance, the rest of the cast was just below average performance.

As i have said the story makes zero sense, why would couples married for long years suddenly decide to tell their deepest secrets just in the name of a game?! I think the writters should try this game once within themselves. Utter nonsense.
