So does Charu get a job or work to get a scholarship to Canada? Nothing of the sort, she just demands Rs. The daughter, Charu, falls in love with a boy who is moving to Canada and she wants to go with her boo. The story revolves around an unnamed woman who battles social disregard and anonymity every day in order to work several odd jobs and provide for her teenage daughter. The only reason ‘Minnaminungu The Firefly’ is a must-watch is because of its leading lady Surabhi Lakshmi (who won a National Award for the Best Actress for this film). ‘Forensic’ makes for a decent crime thriller, with some power-packed performances from the main cast. What this film also does not do is provide a romantic sub-story of any kind, which is great, because seriously, who has the time for singing romantic songs when there is a child-murdering killer on the loose. This film does not delve into the details of the killer’s background too much because, as the protagonist explains early on, sometimes, the thrill of the crime is the psychopath’s motivation and nothing else.

‘Forensic’ is a serial killer crime thriller that brings an investigating officer and a medico-legal advisor together (two people who have some history but thankfully not the romantic kind) as they try to catch a serial killer who especially targets young kids. Actors Pasupathy and Janani Iyer come together in this fine display of their acting talents.

They do clue in the audience to what is going on early in the movie, but it’s a subtly placed clue and most people who are not movie buffs may miss it entirely.
The narrative of ‘Ma Chu Ka’ is slow and heavy with suspense, tension building up with each scene until it all ends with an alarming climax.

The story revolves around the chance meeting of a young journalist and an advocate and how their relationship progresses in the course of a single day that’s full of lies and deception and finally culminates in death. The whole film just has two characters on the screen (plus a dog) and other characters are only talked about. ‘Ma Chu Ka’ is a psychological thriller that promises to keep viewers biting their nails from start to finish. Don’t worry, they solve the crime too, by the end. It is the nuances of these three people’s relationships with each other that the film explores. It closely follows the strange bond that forms between three individuals brought together by the heinous crime – the investigating police officer, the forensic surgeon who performs the victim’s autopsy, and an ayurvedic medical practitioner who was the victim’s employer. ‘Samarpannam’, rather than being just an investigative crime thriller, is an exploration of the complexities of human relationships. While it does sound like the opening of the typical run-of-the-mill whodunit thriller, it is not that. Gopinathan’s ‘Samarpannam’ opens with the murder of a young woman, her lifeless body discovered on the railway tracks. Watch it as a 2-hour-long pleasant escape from the harsh realities of the world. There’s not much substance to the story but the cinematography is beautiful, along with all the actors.
In order to fix his “planetary alignments” (as told by an astrologer), Ashokan goes to some unnecessary lengths.
Ashokan just wants to get married to a nice girl and start a family, but no luck so far. ‘Maniyarayile Ashokan’ tells the story of Ashokan, a middle-aged man who does not look like he stepped right off a movie poster, as he experiences major FOMO because of all his friends getting married and settling into a life of blessed domesticity. ‘Maniyarayile Ashokan’, directed by Shamsu Zayba and produced by Dulquer Salmaan, is a feel-good movie designed to give hope to every man out there that they will find their dream woman someday, regardless of their flaws, and boy will she be perfect. Starring Dulquer Salmaan, Karthika, Priyanka Nair. ‘Comrade in America’ is pleasant and entertaining enough to watch though, all things considered.
Amal Neerad also misses out on making a bold statement on some very sensitive and extremely relevant subject matter and prefers to make tasteless jokes about men getting raped instead. But the movie loses its footing slightly in execution, getting a bit “draggy” towards the end. The actors have all done a good job and the plot is interesting enough as well. The film’s protagonist is Aji, a young communist, who falls in love with an NRI girl and travels to the US (entering illegally through Mexico) to stop her from getting married to some other guy her parents have picked. At first glance, Amal Neerad’s ‘CIA’ seems like another one in the long line of communist-themed films that have flooded the Malayalam cinema recently.
