Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

PimpinAinttEasy Dear Murali Gopi, it was a great script by you, exposing the phoniness of the Malayali middle and upper classes. It was a great account of a profoundly sick society with multiple narratives featuring characters from many walks of life.The film started off in a very unusual manner with the protest against the dumping of garbage in a rural area. I guess the garbage was a very obvious symbol for the dubious and depressed characters who were to be introduced one after the other.I liked how you inserted the narrative about the serial killer into what was otherwise a film about normal people. Apart from your writing, the tight editing by the director is another of the film's virtues. I remember the film had fine sound recording especially in the scenes where the doctor's wife is flirting with the young man.Tanushree Ghosh was a bit of a let down with her Bengali accent. But Mythili and Indrajith were terrific as the working class couple desperate to make ends meet. Baiju as the quotation killer was pretty hilarious. The guy ought to be in more films. Nishan's performance as the flirtatious young man was pitch perfect.You seem to be slightly sympathetic towards the RSS. Or did I interpret those scenes incorrectly? Anyway, this was a great effort, Murali.Best Regards, Pimpin.(7/10)

JOSEPH PIUS E ADUTHA KAALATH ( 2012 )Saw this.. The story of the society at present, life of people at present.. Not so great.. average script and 'lots gone wrong' Direction makes this un impressive in the first half. Second half is better and engaging though not so great. Dubbing has flaws , acting of one or two not good .. But there are many good things also.. INDARJITH and JAGATHY masters their role perfectly. So is the stylish BG SCORE by Gopi Sundar. Fortunately the director himself was the editor. So lots of his own flaws he has hidden cleverly .. A nice attempt to create something different but it hasn't come out well..

Anup Viswanathan Thampi The movie is really a take on the real time events and ultimate paradox. The movie has all the elements and flavors to be called a classic and that's due to the writer (V G Muralikrishna son Of Late Bharath Gopi) who penned this. He has proved that he has talent and is the son of one of the Omnipotent actor of Indian Film Industry. This movie narrates lives of several people and how their lives are tangled without or with their knowledge. This movie has a great star cast of potential actors like Indrajith,Jagathy Sreekumar,Mythili, VG Muralikrishna himself, Anoop Menon and last but not least Tanushree Ghosh who is a new comer but provided a strong acting. This movie narrates lives of people who strive hard for their family,frauds who uses ladies for taking porn movies and sell it in name of popular actress,then rowdies who give and take life and money,police who thinks they know everything and media feminists who turn out to be female after all. Tanushree was quite convincing as a malayali and wife. Indrajith is the most talented actor of our times depicting an entirely new range of acting skill. The ending sequence needs a special applause because it says every secret goes to burial ground but only secrets between 2 females aren't safe and that ideology is known only by another human "another woman".

Gokul Krishnan Director Arun Kumar Aravind has come out with his second venture "Ee Adutha Kalathu" and the screen play is written by Murali Gopi for whom this is a second endeavour as well. The movie comes to the theaters today and narrates the strange realities of life in a big city. Vishnu, the protagonist, played by Indrajith is an all purpose utility man: he collects rags, he is in great demand by cricket teams for his unorthodox hitting, he is an errand boy and many other things. He is also a loving husband and an indulgent father. Ramani, his wife, played by Mythili, does not think too highly of him and justifiably so. He has an ailing mother and two charming daughters. In short, they are the typical struggling family living in the city and off the city. And trying to keep the wolf from the door! In the process, they have to fight off the loan sharks as well. The movie is full of interesting characters who are unveiled as in a fashion show. Madhuri (Tanushree), an ex-actress with a few B-grade Bollywood movies to her credit, lives with her husband Ajay Kurien(Murali Gopi) and eleven year old son Ayur. Madhuri maintains her stunning good looks even now. And she is a kind soul. Ajay Kurien is a self-made person coming up the ranks and presently working as the Chief in a city hospital. He learned his trade in Mumbai and is proud of his feat and knows how to get around in a city. Ayur is mad after cricket and spends time trying to solve the puzzle of the Rubik's cube. A serial killer is lurking in the streets stalking his prey. Rustam (Nishan) has come to the city on a contract and lives in a rented room among the migrant workers. He is dashing, drives around in a bike and speaks Malayalam in bits and peaces. He is a dazzler and a scoundrel. Anoop Menon is Tom Cherian, the Commissioner of Police. He is an aspiring cop bent upon earning name and fame and for him, the end justifies the means. And his love Roopa, played by Lena, is equally ambitious as a no-holds-barred journalist. "Ee Adutha Kalathu" revolves around these characters and how they cope with the strange realities of life in a big city. Indrajith is subtle and classy and Murali Gopi is as good in his acting as in his script writing. Anoop Menon confirms his rising stature as a star, with a scintillating performance. Jagathy Sreekumar has done justice to his role. Nishan is impressive. Among the female stars, Tanushree with her glamorous looks and lucid expressions has left an indelible impression. Mythili as the fiery wife and Lena as the journalist have portrayed their characters vividly. Gimi George and Baiju have not disappointed. Arunkumar Aravind has created a different movie, relevant, yet attractive and the technical excellence has to be appreciated. The visuals by Shehnad Jalal are of high quality and helps in improving the quality of the film. Art by Jothish Shankar tasty and refined. Gopi Sunder's music is pleasing and catchy as well. The same could be said of background music. As the story unfolds on the screen, we watch the people helplessly caught up in mazes and puzzles in their journey through life and trying to unravel the mysteries. Joy and sorrow, anxiety and humour, fear and courage, we witness the different emotions and the different ways of dealing with them. There are plenty of loops and turns in the story but there is an element of credibility in them all and the viewer's intelligence is taken seriously by the film maker. Coupled with the all round performance of the actors, "Ee Adutha Kalathu" is a remarkably refreshing and sensitive movie making a candid statement of life in the cities.Verdict: Excellent !
