Maheshinte Prathikaram - a Malayalam tale of revenge, Love, passion and light moment comedies
Story:
Its a revenge tale. But you will never feel like that. No blood. No gore violence. A revenge explained as simple as possible. But the movie is not only about revenge. Its about Love. Its about finding passion in your work
Characters:
Fahad Fazil's lifetime performance. Not just Fahad Fazil. Every single character has pulled it off very well. Particularly the girl in second half. A bold modern girl. Similar to the Anjali character in 'Engayum Eppothum'. The flash mob dance and the scene where she comes to Fahad's house demonstrates her potential.
And special mention to Premam fame PT master. He works as an assistant in Flex shop. He carries the movie forward when there are moments like 'what next?' Watch out for two best performances of him: juice juice scene and convincing his boss to believe that he is not in Love with his daughter
Screenplay:
To be honest, one of the best screenplays. It is very tough to do screenplay for a simple story which doesn't have thriller and mass action scenes. But, the director did it perfectly. The way the twist, which turns the course of the movie is filmed, is just awesome. It is very well thought and very well linked. It will feel you like 'Wow..can it even happen like this?' But the director makes you believe it <3
Cinematography:
You feel like you live in Idukki. Great locations and colorful frames. Rain scenes are too lovely
Best moments:
Spoilers ahead

But at a certain point, he realises that he is a bad photographer. That's when he tries to find hus passion for it. Then come the best scenes of how his father teaches him the lovely essence of Photography and how he takes his first good photo. And when he says Thanks to that cute little girl after taking that first good photo, you will surely get goosebumps
