So this review needs a hell lot of introductions....perhaps the most among all the movies I have reviewed in my blog...It happened way back when I m studying my plus two..I just told my friend that a second part of King is coming up and it is named as "Thevaliparambil Joseph Alex" and also another second part of Narasimham is coming titled " Paramidhikaram " where Mammotty will play the master role and Mohanlal will come as Induchoodan....MY friends laughed at me saying that is the buzz I made myself but now my comment came true after a long gap of 5-6 years and still no words abour Paramadhikaram from the makers....Lets hope that will also materialise in one day...Then coming to the movie.. I have no problems in saying that I m a Mammotty fan...Yeah once I was a so hardcore fan but eventually turned up to be a movie lover....And also this is the first Mammotty movie I m reviewing right over here...in my blog...and also that one turned out to the most expected movie in the recent times....So when the movie I just booked my seats at Escape Cinemas Chennai...Truly a wonderful watching experience...So going into the movie
The King and The Commissioner - A Verbal Extravaganza
Just entered into the theater with no expectations at all because I heard a lot of mixed/negative responses about the movie even in the releasing day itself...yeah postive reviews were also there....So no expectations.....also I watched a movie with high expectations recently and it turned out to be a nightmare for me...So for this one I just wanted to hear some good dialogues...thats it...
The movie started and the introduction of the King(Mammotty) was the first one..welcomed with claps eventhough its a multiplex with high profile or family audiences...The second intro was of the Commissioner(Suresh Gopi0 and that too was welcomed with nice claps...then movie started to go on...Eventhough the movie doesnt have a strong storyline as everytime I wont go for the single slice of story line...The technical part of the movie...Coming to the major part ..Editing...the editor deserves 50 percent appreciation and other 50 percent scolding(:P)....becuase there is a hell lot of scenes which can be trimmed and that would have made the movie much more better(not means current version is bad) ....he should have used some gimmicks also(dont know whether the same needs to be done in the camera side or editing side) but still he had a done a nice job because the director has the last say on the scenes to be included...So there I would like to say movie needs a trimming atleast by 15-20 minutes and that can be easily done.Camera work as usual happens in a Shaji sytle but with some enchancements on various sides...but 90 percent the same we have seen in previous Shaji Kailas movies...The other part of these kind of movies is the BGM....I heard several people telling BGM was so superb...I too accept it was good but it should have used with little more thinking so that the punch can be delivered more perfectly many times I felt BGM was not used in the places it is needed....Then coming to the most important parts...Script and Direction...Script was as usual filled with racy dialogues...I wont know why people say there is no story line in the script ....In a Renji Paniker script I dont know who is expecting a class storyline...Except Dr Pashupathi which movie from him has a classy storyline....I my knowledge no movie was there...It would the sequences by which hero reaches and traps the villain...Still I wont say this script is in par with the orginals but still not failed to maintain the standards...he should have made it little more better but this one proves he still have the fire within him...And finally about the direction...Shaji Kailas was way good compare to his recent flicks....even then he is not at his best...and he can be good if he gets some more stronger stuff and this movie proves that...Normally I look my watch while watching the movie and number of times I look my watch counts how much boring is the movie...For this one I looked only 2 times...One at the interval and other while the movie entered into the climax and this makes me feel that eventhough the movie lasted for 3hrs 10 minutes it was taken in a racy way which will keep you watch ...Again dont expect a pakka out n out new substance in this one..you can see traces from the yester year hits like King,Commissioner and Ekalavyan.
OK...So the major part acting.....I heard my friends saying Mammotty cant do this again and he is already weak...Ohh dear friends...go n watch..look at easynes he is delivering his stuff....Every fan of Mammotty can be proud of that...At this age he maintain his class and standard....Dialogue delivery is supreme.....I m not saying he is having an exceptional performance in this one but he still remains the same King as we have seen him 17 years back....But the only sad part I felt about him in this movie was the dialogues were not so punchy as in the older ones...He has delivered watever is given to him...bt dialogues should have been made little more powerful and memorable...Renji if u are making a movie on Mammotty again...please aware of this face...Then the Commissioner...Suresh Gopi as usual terriffc....Phaa Pulee still strikes...He did his role very well and the dialogues were also powerful and punchy...still no dialogue which will keep in yur memory...Wonderful performance from both the stars and also they share equal screenspace....Rest of the actors I dont felt anyone to be mentioned except the Assistant Biju pappan...he did his part well....Saikumar's role was a terrible failure ....Never ever near Narendra Prasad...Rest all of roles were ok and nothing special to mention....The movie is full n full Mammotty and Suresh Gopi and that will make you watch this one ....Scenes of Samvrtha and Janadharnan needs to be trimmed which can increase the pace of the movie...Hoping that will happen soon...
3 hours and 10 minutes is one of the bad things about this movie and that needs to be reduced and the best thing is this is the one I felt is maintaining the same standards with the orginals eventhough it is not in par with them....Scripting needs little more tight ....Hope Renji will take care of that next time...I m sure this will set the cash registers ringing as it has enough content for that...May be it wont run into the blockbuster levels that the makers have expected it will run to a sureshot hit...and due to the wide release collection will also be good as I said earlier....
My Rating : 6.5/10 ---Watch it ..You will have your money worth and have some master dialogues........
Note : Mammokkaa....People watch out for his shirts....Superbbbb and simply superbb....This is what we call executive...I have noted and started my search for them....Wonderful costumes....
One more thing I want to mention here...I have seen a hell lot of negatives promotions for this movie even before the first show got over...Yeah we can assume its the Mohanlal fans..but they are not wrong at all...because Mammotty fans have done the same stuff for Casanova some time back....simple saying works for both of them "Koduthal Kollathum Kitum" but why ...do we really need this...Poster tampering and negative promo with the help of social media....The only result that will happen is the so called superstars will die eventually....and nothing will be left over for these fans to tamper at all...And for those who say " Mohanlal and Mammotty should stop acting " I would like to ask them " Who the hell acts better than them in Indian Cinema"...Yeah I do accept there is Kamalhassan and Nasarudden Shah but leave them out and think ....Infact no actors are there in the whole Indian cinema which boasts out of the second in the world to Hollywood.....By considering this...My dear Mohanlal and Mammotty fans " Dont kill our stars ....you will not have another one to celebrate".......Let their movies come and go ...It it is good it will be a hit otherwise a flop....I understand next time a Lal movie comes...mostly Grandmaster...Mammotty fans will do the same...But please refrain from it and think....
