Best of L in recent times

I donno how to describe my feelings after watching this movie.Movie started with laying some emotional attachments and funny family scenes that are entirely different from the actual plot of the movie. First half was nicely done to give an attachment with the characters. It even had many references and comedy scenes inspired from social media.After the first half script is taking an unexpected turn that no one is gonna predict. Even minute expressions from mohanlal is conveying a lot. Some scenes from police station kinda reminded me of Drishyam. One actor who should be appreciated as much as mohanlal is the antagonist Prakash Varma. He was brilliant and deserves a punch in the face. His mannerisms were top notch and makes every viewer angry without any heavy gimmick.Director Tharun moorthy is definitely one of the best filmmaker in mollywood right now. His best is yet to come.

LALETTAN FANS, ASSEMBLE! MASS & Class Feast To the Fullest!

THUDARUM IS THE ULTIMATE BAAAP OF EMPURAAN - and I mean that with full respect! Seriously! I know comparing this flick to Empuraan is like comparing pizza to pazham pori - totally different leagues, but that pure OG Lalettan kick you get walking out? Had. To. Say. It! This movie? It's a whole vibe, so much to unpack, so many moments that made me wanna whistle and hoot in the theatre. Gotta hand it to MOHANLAL a.k.a. Benzz! He's just there, straight-up owning the director's vision like a total thug (gunda). And when George gets a taste of that? Pure satisfaction for us all!That ending though - "MOHANLAL THUDARUM" just blazed across the screen, and it leaves you stepping out thinking, damn, Benzz could've gone full beast mode on that fool George! I know "Empuraan" sometimes felt like Lalettan's sheer aura swallowed the story a bit, but here? Total opposite! It ain't about some chest-thumping end, but you'll connect with Mohanlal's journey, feel that satisfaction deep down. And even that message about honor killings? They slipped it in there smooth, you know. Massy impact."Thudarum" is the perfect fanboy feast - balancing that classy touch with some hardcore mass moments, throwing in hilarious Lalettan references without being cheesy, just hitting that sweet spot. For example, we can say Pulimurugan, Bhramaram, and Drishyam, and this film's got the best of all three: a great family drama with some cool massy thriller moments. Can you believe it? This is Lalettan's 3rd release in just 4 months! After the visual spectacle of Barroz 3D and the epic slow-burn Empuraan, he drops Thudarum - and HOLY MOLY, THIS IS BOSS LEVEL! Director Tharun Moorthy gave Lalettan the ULTIMATE terrain - mass swag, acting chops, everything.The story is simple, just like we saw in the trailer. Shanmugham (Lalettan, who else would it be?), a middle-class taxi anna who loves his ride. He lives with his wife Lalitha (Shobana, still ruling!), whom he met during his action hero days in Madras. Life's cruising along - UNTIL THE LAW ENFORCEMENT SNATCHES HIS RIDE! Now, Shanmugham's on a MISSION: GET HIS BABY BACK, and the chaos that follows? Sounds simple, right? But trust me, it's gonna be fire.The first half is pure nostalgia with Lalettan references and light-hearted fun that's all warm and fuzzy right up to the intermission. But that one sequence? Seriously next level. The temple festival, the forest visuals playing against everything else - pure cinematic class with a mass connect. The hunt for his car in the second half turns into a full-on police showdown, power games with a sweet payback - all backed by an incredible BGM by THE Jakes Bejoy, who is on fire. Plus, there are these two awesome action scenes, just Mohanlal being totally badass - pure, unadulterated Mohanlal-esque dynamism. Nothing beats the sheer panache of our protagonist in a well-draped mundu. Honestly, those 'Empuraan' suits? I'll take Lalettan in a mundu any day.FINAL VERDICT? Even if the initial pacing feels leisurely or some emotional beats don't quite land for you, stay with it. I promise you the second half, the moment Lalettan shifts gears and that incredible score driving the action, any minor flaws become insignificant. THUDARUM IS A RIDE YOU ABSOLUTELY CANNOT MISS!

Thudarum..... A well made drama

Thudarum follows a common man's life who is living in a heaven, later due to unexpected circumstances which turns his world into a living hell.The movie worked well for me. It is a well made crime drama with great emotional connection and excellent performances given by Mr mohanlal, Shobhana ma'am and each and every other supporting artists as well as a good technical support. Even though the CGI during the start of the film is mediocre still it does not affect our enjoyment. The first half of the film is well written and the character arc of benz is so good. The family drama that was written and performed well was enhanced by beautiful visuals and music given by the technical team. The turn of events and it's execution through the film is effectively written. I can proudly say that the movie filled my heart with a lot of emotions. In conclusion a well made crime drama with exciting performances and technical quality which will entertain everyone.
