Iyyobinte Pusthakam: Another lifeless Back light Party


Each time after watching his films I pledge myself that I won't repeat this. But his trailers for the next one will tempt me to catch it as soon as possible. Again pani paalum. ! 
But this time I waited for some days and was seeing all those posts in fb praising him for his best work till date. Now I am truly taking a vow to avoid his films in big screens.
Another lifeless -well lit- Amal neerad show with a tagline of period film. At once it runs with a momentum gained from the chain of events backed by good performances of its actors and in the last thirty minutes it becomes a mere showcase of a forgotten action film. While its progress I remembered the films of IV Sasi, who told gripping stories in similar backdrops with a human touch. The struggle for land, betrayal in families and the never ending feudal conflicts are the topics discussed , but nowhere in its narrative it connects with the viewer and towards the end it became the usual exercise of looking the watch.
Fahad as usual was amazing both in his looks and action. Apart from some stunning visuals(almost every scene was shot with a back light source ) and music of Neha, its another bachelor party of amal. I think Big B still remains his best.
I would prefer to watch some good films of 80s born from Iv Sasi - MT team over this boring stuff.
