minimal murali 2022 movie review
The movie revolves around a young man named Jason, who works as a tailor in a village. One day he is struck by lightning. Due to this, he gets superpowers and turns into a superhero.
Like all Malayalam films, the movie takes some time to get back on track. The movie has some melodrama-heavy dialogues. The fight choreography of this film does not seem good enough for the superhero film genre, but the team makes up for it effectively.
Well-done visuals, well-developed characters, great background score, and emotional depth.
The main character of the film is played by Tovino Thomas. Tovino has nailed his part well. Tovino played double roles in this movie.
A playful childish middle-aged villain and a young budding mischievous superhero together these two build up feelings of wonder within our minds to watch the thriller. It is fun to watch as Tovino discovers his powers in the beginning. The Malayalam film industry gets its first superhero through this movie.
There is a likable superhero and a supervillain in this movie. The movie’s villain is as powerful as his hero. Guru Somasundaram played the role of a supervillain in the movie Mighty. The demented Shibu character played by Guru will be quite memorable for the viewers. One becomes a villain because of his life experiences and circumstances. The transformation of his character is shown very well. The journey of the hero and the villain run together throughout the movie.
The songs of the film are decent which take the story forward and are placed in the right places. The songs of the film are written by Manu Manjith in Malayalam, Rajesh Malarvannan in Tamil, and Bharathi Babu in Telugu. The music of the film is given by Shaan Rahman and Sushin Shyam. The background music of the movie is given by Sushin Shyam which is excellent.
As if any person gets superpowers then he uses those powers for good or for the evil it is in his hands. The same thing happens in this movie. Like all superheroes, it too has a magical past.
The climax scene of the movie ends immediately. If he should have been given more length then it would have been more fun to watch. Due to this, the movie wobbles a bit. This movie will entertain you thoroughly. This is a good movie. This movie teaches us that superhero films can be made even with such a low budget. You must watch this movie once.
In India too, superhero films have been made since ancient times. Many stars have done films like Amitabh Bachchan’s Ajooba, Toofan, Anil Kapoor’s Mr. India, Jackie Shroff’s Shiva’s Insaaf, Hrithik Roshan’s Krrish Movie Syringe, Shahrukh Khan’s Raavan, Abhishek Bachchan’s Drona, Tiger Shroff’s Flying Jatt Tamil film hero in South India. Minnal Murali’s film is very different from all these films.
The drama goes on in the night. There, an old beedi picker throws away his piece, because of which the fireworks factory on the side catches fire, due to which the stage of the play also catches fire. People start running here and there.
