While some movies awe us for being
magnanimous... Some comes as a surprise for being simple and relatable...
Friday is one such movie...
The characters are real... The plot
is simple... Narrative is gripping... Screenplay is crisp...
The story is about what happens in
the life of a set of people in a day... Their path crisscrosses each others’...
It is also about how the events in that day affect their life - Forever!
I chose to watch the movie only
because of the brand - Fahad Fazil. Let me tell you... He did not disappoint
me... He comes across as a konkani... His accent and body language is
commendable... His eyes are expressive and we connect with him instantly.
All other actors have done their
part impeccably. Nedumudi venu shines...
Ann looks lovely as a perfect girl
next door... Transition of Manu from a love-sick-yet-another-boy to a
responsible man is appreciable...
I really wish that the climax was
simple too... The element of drama could have been avoided. It is not essential
that something should happen... It could have been concluded as yet another Friday...
But, movies are supposed to be packed with high dose of drama, isn't?
In short, I loved the movie. Its
simplicity awed me. Fahad Fazil proves himself again further proving that his
movies would be both different and spellbinding!
A movie without interval... More
like a short film... I have to appreciate the director and the producer for
couraging venturing into it... A risk taken, well rewarded...
So... Go for the movie... Enjoy
it... Envision the metamorphosis that Malayalam film industry is going
through... The hungry movie buff within you will not feel unhappy...!!!!
