Pathaam Valavu Movie Review: An emotional cop-convict drama
Overview: M Padmakumar who gave us films like Joseph and Akashamittayee, brings us one other thriller with Patham Valavu.
SI Sethu (Indajith Sukumaran) was about to proceed on depart to see his pregnant hospitalised spouse, after he indicators out from the day’s responsibility, however his superior provides him a accountability to nab a homicide convict, Soloman (Suraj Venjaramoodu), who has not reported again after his parole ended.
The police staff leaves for the excessive ranges, nabs him and begins their return journey, however due to a landslide, are caught on the highway. A tea store proprietor on the spot tells the Sethu the story of Soloman, a younger orphan who grows as much as be samaritan, falls in love with a lady Seetha (Aditi Ravi) of one other group, and will get married regardless of opposition from the woman’s mother and father and the person who was meant to marry her, Varadan (Ajmal Ameer). The couple have a child woman, then Varadan, a police officer, involves their native police station. Soloman’s younger daughter goes lacking and so they study she was brutally raped. Had Varadan come to take revenge on Seetha? How Soloman turned a assassin is the remainder of the story.
The 2-hour film isn’t fairly an fringe of seat thriller, however extra an emotional story of two households and males, one who has misplaced his baby and one other set to turn out to be a father. These feelings have been captured by the director very nicely.
Indrajit and Suraj are nicely juxtaposed of their opposing roles and are nicely matched in appearing chops. All of the actors have, actually, executed justice to their roles. Generally we really feel a lag within the circulation, and we’re not in a position to join nicely with the characters.
Songs don’t have anything a lot to do with all being within the background to match the circulation of the story. The cinematography was sensible, Ratheesh Ram captured the excessive vary cynic magnificence so brilliantly, whether or not it’s the church festivities or the early morning mist, hills, or the rains.
Patham Valavu could be a one-time watch with an fascinating twist.
