Neram malayalam Movie

In 'Neram', Alphonse Puthran tries to infuse some fresh imagination into a been-there-done-that scenario and succeeds in parts. The notions hold little promise, but the adrenaline driven execution lights up things quite a bit.Mathew (Nivin Pauly) is an engineer who has lost his job in Chennai on account of a very peculiar bombing. He marries off his sister, borrowing money from notorious money lender Vatti Raja (Simhaa), and months later when unable to pay him back, finds the goon hot on his heels. Too add to his misery, his love Jeena (Nazriya Nazim) has decided to elope with him, and her dad Johny Kutty (Lalu Alex) has lodged a complaint against him at the local police station.The posters did claim that this was a film that had nothing new to it. And yes, amen to that. It's a story that is as old as cinema itself, and the struggler protagonist juggling between a love life, financial constraints and a threat to his own life are all that we have seen so many, many times before. So the expected excuse would be that the treatment is different. But with so many Tamil, and even some Malayalam films churned out in the same format, even the treatment is nothing much to brag about.

Anoop Menon - Jayasurya in Hotel California

 The story is quite long winding in that the characters are several, and the circumstances that bind them together more than just a few. What is disheartening is that eventually it appears like a jumbled, badly shaken up string of crude skits that has become a groveling mess. The characterization appears flimsy at several points. There is the serial actress for instance (Dhwani), who is all set to bed a millionaire (Shankar), to make a few quick bucks. There is also this rich damsel (Maria Roy) who has had enough with men, and who decides to conceive by paying a fortune for a Bollywood superstar sperm.The best thing about the film are the few genuinely funny moments that are on offer thanks to Noby Marcose and his team. The writing too turns out to be distinctly smart, especially the bit related to terrorism and religion.

Bereft of both of these, she finds herself ruined beyond repair, and nothing else - her family, friends, or the lack of it - is dwelt upon.The form of narrative that 'Climax' adopts puts a director (Irshad) on the forefront, who claims to have known Supriya from close quarters. It's he, who tells us her story, and he does admit that he is clueless about what happened to her eventually. The suggestion that she had no reason to commit suicide is put forward.
