Panthrand Movie Review: A disjointed gang story
Assessment: Andhro (Vinayakan) and Pathro (Shine Tom Chacko) are brothers operating a citation gang of 11 members. Someday, whereas they’re coming back from a ‘job’, they discover an unknown man of their van and whereas they forcefully drop him on the best way, he nonetheless reaches the village the place Andhro and his workforce stay with their household.
He introduces himself as Immanuel (Dev Mohan) and he quickly wins over the village along with his charming smile and oud. He influences Andhro to cease all his unlawful actions and return to fishing, and goes up towards Peelu (Lal), an area politician who’s behind the gang. Why is Immanuel within the village and confronting these doing the citation work? Will his affect over them flip the henchmen into good samaritans? These solutions kind the remainder of the film.
Shine Tom excels as Pathro, as soon as once more an anti-hero picture however introduced very in a different way. It’s enjoyable to look at him on display along with his foolish gimmicks and in motion scenes. Vinayakan presents himself convincingly as a gang chief who turns again to his unique job as a fisherman. Dev Mohan, appears to be like good on this motion thriller, however doesn’t strike the chord he did in his debut romantic position in Sufiyum Sujathayum. The film portrays Immanuel in a mysterious means; therapeutic ailing individuals and so forth, nearly like a modern-time Jesus Christ.
The primary half of the film, till some extent, strikes quick, however then it slows down, although the curiosity of what is going to occur subsequent retains you glued. There are scenes that make the film mysterious, just like the ‘final supper’, the place all of the household dine collectively on the seashore.
The cinematography by Swaroop Shoba is the perfect a part of the film. He has captured the ocean, crusing, fishing, seashore and the night time scenes completely. The BGM by Alphons Joseph can be glorious and Shahabaz Aman’s voice is soothing in Melle En Pranayam and Vaanthiril Mizhi. Even for all these positives, the film does not actually work for being too lengthy, and being disjointed, notably Vinayakan’s character. Dev Mohan does a very good job however fails to create that attraction of his first film. Lal manages his position properly, Srinda, Swetha Vinod, Veena Nair, and Prashant all justify their half.
The movie with its themes of friendship, household and love between brothers, amid the motion thriller really feel, makes it an entertainer for the household viewers, as nicely.
