'Kolla' review: Rajisha Vijayan, Priya Varrier's bank robbery film is pacy, but could have been sharper | Movie Review | Onmanorama – Onmanorama

‘Kolla’ (loosely translated as theft) because the title suggests is a cash heist movie revolving a bunch of criminals who resolve to rob a financial institution. The modus operandi might be slightly totally different because the antagonists are usually not the same old gun-wielding robbers who scare staff into opening the financial institution locker, however slightly two younger girls who resolve to start out a magnificence parlour, in the identical constructing the place the cooperative financial institution capabilities.
An fascinating premise, proper? The movie begins off by displaying Annie (performed by Rajisha Vijayan) and Shilpa (Priya Varrier) organising the wonder parlour. The neighborhood is kind of excited because it’s the primary magnificence parlour of their space. The work of the wonder parlour good points momentum with unimaginable assist from the townsfolk. Annie and Shilpa, nevertheless, have totally different plans. Alancier (who performs Annie’s Appapan) aids the duo by slicing open the roof of their parlour, which results in the secure deposit locker room of the financial institution.
The movie’s tempo picks up from there because the bunch desperately tries to not fall within the police internet. Each Annie and Shilpa proceed to guide regular lives to make sure they give the impression of being harmless. Although the movie is kind of partaking, the modus operandi, will not be fully convincing. It surprises me that the townsfolk, who’re normally cautious of outsiders, trusted the women with out an iota of doubt when it clearly appeared like an inside job.
Additionally, the makers didn’t attempt to set up the hyperlink between the 2 women and the aged man. Shilpa continues to be uneasy all through the method, however we nonetheless are unclear concerning the causes even on the finish.
The performances by the actors, together with Alexander Prashant and Vinay Forrt are good. Rajisha, who has gained the state award for the movie ‘Anuraga Karikkin Vellam’, a romantic drama, is now shifting her focus to crime thrillers, currently. She was final seen in ‘Pakalum Paathiravum’, one other crime drama. It was good but heartbreaking to see Kollam Sudhi, who handed away in a highway mishap lately, enjoying the function of a mason within the film.

The story by in style screenwriter duo Bobby-Sanjay may have been elevated with a stronger screenplay written by Jasim Jalal and Nelson Joseph. The twists have been fairly intriguing, however a few of the scenes wanted to be extra sharper, to look extra convincing. However, it was fascinating how a few of the scenes have been envisaged. There was even a Jeethu Joseph ‘Drishyam’ fashion second within the movie.
The music by Shaan Rahman was good, thought I felt the background rating felt unnecessarily loud at instances.
